  1. Would you believe that Daughter's Dell didn't come with a manual? (purchased January 2006) I ALWAYS read manuals, boy did that tick me off! Liz Liz: It does come with a manual, but it is on your computer. She should have had a shortcut on her desk top that takes you to it (PDF FORMAT) If she does not have it on desk top, go to: C:/Dell/Docs/Manual......... I just got a new one last week and that is where mine is. As for Windows XP, I made sure I checked to send me CD for add charge of $9.00. Well worth it. If you did not ask for it, you won't get it. You will have to burn your own copy,

  3. 1st woman: Hi! My name is Wanda. 2nd woman: Hi! I'm Sylvia. How'd you die? 1st woman: I froze to death. 2nd woman: How horrible! 1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you? 2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV. 1st woman: So, what happened? 2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all
  4. THE MOMMY TEST I was out walking with my 4 year old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that. "Why?" my daughter asked. "Because it's been laying outside, you don't know where it's been, it's dirty and probably has germs" I replied. At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Wow! How do you know all this stuff?" "Uh." I was thinking quickly. "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mommy Test. You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Mommy." We walked a
  5. Hey Marty, don't worry about how you post, just as long as you do. That is what is most important. We are not grading you on your grammer and structure of a sentence. I'm just glad you and your family are safe and are able to give us the info. Just keep doing it the way you have been. There is nothing wrong with the way you post. People have to stop and think, that English may not be that person's primary language. I should be so lucky to be able to speak and understand more than one language. I do see on other boards, where some will critisize for various reasons. That tells me a lot about t
  6. Glad to hear your family is OK. Thanks for letting us know. Take care
  7. Hi Marty: Hope your daughter will be OK. We will be thinking of you and your family. My prayers are with you my friend. Like Liz says, hope the storm prediction is scarier than the actual storm. Sometimes at the last moment these storms can change course, take a left or right turn. Hopefully a turn will make a difference. I'm not familiar with your area for storms, so don't know if they can change course. Take care

  10. Yesterday was $2.45. It seems to go up dailey. That is the lowest, some are higher, around $2.50. I'm sure tomorrow will be higher.
  11. Also 80 here on Monday, and today was in the middle 50's. Have not had hardly any snow here this year. Had a couple of dustings that's it. Really could use some rain. It is dry and very windy.

  14. This is great. Haha Sent this out on the email hwy.
  15. Hi Pat: Glad to hear you and hubby are feeling a little better. Take it easy. If that Maytag has lasted this long, might as well get another one, since it has given you such good service. I got a Whirlpool 15yrs old and still kicking. (crosses fingers)........also knocks on wood for added protection. If anyone saw my old living room furniture, you would say about time. It is worn out. I have been looking for this furniture for a couple of years, never could find what I wanted. Take care

    Happy Anniversary!

    Happy First Anniversary Bozodog and SweetBrit Have a great day, and wish you many more
  17. Well back to reality, only going to middle 60's, which is still above normal. It sure was nice yesterday. Had all the windows open. Liz, I clean my computer on the kitchen table. When done just vacuum the dust bunnies in computer and on floor. Not carrying it outside where more dirt can blow in it. Besides, my luck a bird would fly over and make a deposit, yuck.
  18. It was 80 degrees here in Virginia. Did a little Spring cleaning also. Too early to do windows. I'm in a redecorating mode right now. Had the same living room furniture for about 30 or 35 years. So went out and bought new this past week. Won't get it delivered until next month. Living in the country, you have to almost order everything. Nothing ever is in stock. Can't wait until it gets here. Good idea associating cleaning computer with Spring cleaning. That way you remember to do it. I had just replaced the power supply a couple of months ago, cleaned it real good then, so will wait awhile.
