  5. Only a matter of time before these surfaced! How long does it take an astronaut to go from Houston to Orlando? Depends "I thought the only space traveler who wore a wig and an adult diaper was William Shatner." -David Letterman "Have you been following the story of this female astro-nut? She drove 900 miles from Houston Texas to Orlando, Fla., to confront the woman who was her romantic rival. She drove the whole time wearing a diaper so she didn't have to stop and pee. And let me tell you something ladies, nothing turns a man on more than a woman with a full diaper." --Jay Leno "When she
  6. A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00 (with monthly payments of $560.00). He and a friend go duck hunting in upper Wisconsin. It's mid-winter; and of course all of the lakes are frozen. These two guys go out on the ice with their GUNS, a DOG, and of course the new NAVIGATOR. They decide they want to make a natural looking open water area for the ducks to focus on, something for the decoys to float on. Now making a hole in the ice large enough to invite a passing duck, is going to take a little more power than the average drill auger can produce. So, out of the back
  7. Seniors giving Birth With all the new technology regarding fertility recently, a 65-year-old woman was able to give birth. When she was discharged from the hospital and went home, her relatives came to visit "May we see the new baby?" one asked.| "Not yet," said the mother. "I'll make coffee and we can visit for a while first." Thirty minutes had passed, and another relative asked, "May we see the new baby now?" "No, not yet," said the mother.

  11. there is a chance it is still on your sys if you remember the name go to start search all files and folders and type the name in the search box that search function has to be configured to include all options and you need to set the search through my compt to get all the files on your compt if it is stil there right click it and press restore it may help but as some one says it may be over written ive recovered many files this way good luck and i hope you are successfull marty
  12. before you installed did you clean your compt of temp files and your cache folder all your compt cleaning i reason i ask once i installed mandrake and when i got to the third disk it would not load. when i posted to techtv board someone said do your normal disk cleaning or check your disk space so i did that and eventually it loaded it may be not the same problem but it is worth a try marty
  13. after reading many of these posts it seems many have come from humble backgrounds and i thought every one in the usa was from affluent familys i thought i was the only one with a home made ccompt because i coudnt afford the top of the line machine i found many posts interesting because you are no different from me and a message board brings us all down to the same level irespective of our culture and background one of the reasons i like posting at BT is the honesty as many of the posts in this thread indicates marty

  19. When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things were when they were growing up; what with walking twenty-five miles to school every morning ... uphill BOTH ways .. yadda, yadda, yadda And I remember promising myself that when I grew up, there was no way I was going to lay a bunch of crap like that on kids about how hard I had it and how easy they've got it! But now that... I'm over the ripe old age of thirty, I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today. You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood, you live in a
