  1. HOW TO BATH THE CAT

    1. Thoroughly clean toilet.

    2. Lift both lids and add shampoo.

    3. Find and soothe cat as you carry him to bathroom.

    4. In one swift move, place cat in toilet, close both lids and stand on

    top, so cat cannot escape!

    5. The cat will "self agitate" and produce ample suds.

    (PLEASE....Ignore ruckus from inside toilet, as cat is "really"

    enjoying this).

    6. Flush toilet 3 or 4 times. This provides a "power rinse", which is

    quite effective.

    7. Have someone open outside door, stand as far from toilet as possible

    and quickly lift both lids.

    8. Clean cat will rocket out of the toilet and outdoors, where he will

    air dry....

    Sincerely,

    The Dog.

  2. As the holidays approach, my heartfelt appreciation goes out to all

    of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me "forwards"

    over the past 12 months. Thank you for making me feel safe, secure,

    blessed, and wealthy.

    Extra thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat crap in the glue

    on envelopes 'cause I now have to go get a wet towel every time I

    need to seal an envelope.

    Also, I scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

    Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can

    remove toilet stains.

    I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these

    products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.

    I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

    I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be

    pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.

    I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a

    water buffalo on a hot day.

    I no longer go to shopping malls because someone might drug me with

    a perfume sample and rob me.

    I no longer receive packages from nor send packages by UPS or FedEx

    since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.

    I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a

    number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica,

    Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.

    I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive

    my free replacement pair from Nike.

    I no longer have to buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I

    now have their recipe.

    I no longer worry about my soul because at last count I have

    363,214 angels looking out for me.

    Thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I

    forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and make a wish within five

    minutes.

    I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is

    about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time)

    I no longer have any money at all - but that will change once I

    receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for

    participating in their special email program.

    Yes, I want to thank you so much for looking out for me that I will

    now return the favor!

    If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next

    7minutes, a large pigeon with a wicked case of diarrhea will land on

    your head at 5:00 PM (CDT) this afternoon. I know this will occur

    because it actually happened to a friend of my next-door neighbor's

    ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician.

  3. One beautiful December evening Pedro and his girlfriend Rosita were sitting by the side of the ocean. It was a romantic full moon, when Pedro said, "Hey, mamacita, let's play Weeweechu."

    "Oh no, not now, lets look at the moon" said Rosita.

    "Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I play Weeweechu. I love you and it's the perfect time," Pedro begged.

    "But I wanna just hold your hand and watch the moon."

    "Please, corazoncito, just once, play Weeweechu with me."

    Rosita looked at Pedro and said, "OK, one time, we'll play Weeweechu."

    Pedro grabbed his guitar and they both sang.....

    "Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, "Weeweechu A Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year."

    MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

  4. WINTER REDHEAD IN IOWA As a trucker stops for a red light, a redhead

    catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker

    lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are

    losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down

    the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl

    catches up again. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the

    trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the redhead says

    brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

    Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the

    street. At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of

    breath, the redhead gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door.

    The trucker rolls down the window. Again she says "Hi, my name is

    Heather, and you are losing some of your load!" When the light turns

    green the trucker revs up and races to the next light. When he stops this

    time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the redhead.

    He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it, he says... "Hi, my

    name is Kevin, it's winter in Iowa and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!"

  5. Tom had been in the liquor business for 25 years. Finally, sick of the

    stress, he quit his job and bought 50 acres of land in Alaska as far from

    humanity as possible. He saw the postman once a week and got groceries once

    a month. Otherwise, it was total peace and quiet.

    After about six months of almost total isolation, someone knocked on his

    door. He opened it and a huge, bearded man was standing there. "Name's

    Lars, your neighbor from forty miles up the road. Having a Christmas party

    Friday night...thought you might like to come. About 5:00."

    "Great", says Tom, "after six months out here I'm ready to meet some local

    folks. Thank you."

    As Lars left, he stopped. "Gotta warn you......be some drinkin'."

    "Not a problem" says Tom. "After 25 years in the business, I can drink with

    the best of 'em."

    Again, the big man started to leave and stopped. "More 'n' likely gonna be

    some fightin', too."

    "Well, I get along with people; I'll be all right. I'll be there. Thanks

    again."

    "More'n likely be some wild sex, too!"

    "Now that's really not a problem," says Tom, warming to the idea. "I've been

    all alone for six months! I'll definitely be there. By the way, what should

    I wear?"

    "Don't much matter ..... Just gonna be the two of us."

  6. tymekiller, i am so sorry for your loss of a friend.

    i hope you make it through this difficult time of loss.

    it is sad when someone cares so little for life, and the worst thing is for your friend to get it in the back.

    if this was like a hunting accident, i would think the one is feeling real bad about it, if it was a criminal act, i hope the one or ones that did it are caught and punished to the max.

    remember, he is now in a wonderful and beautiful place now.

  7. well i am one of the ones that was on the TTV boards, and then went to the G4 boards.

    i have noticed a change from theway it was when Casey Q was incharge of the TTV boards.

    but as we have all realized, then end of tech shows on G4 was going to be short lived.

    i will still aid in help when i can on what ever tech support or tech help board they have.

    i will also come here and help and pass on a few jokes i get from my mom that she forwards to me.

  8. have you tried another keyboard?

    just looking at the log, even though i have not taken any class yet, i did not see anything that would cause the keyboard problem.

    have you tried to reload the keybord drivers?

    it might just be a problem with the drivers for the key board or the key board itself.

    try this, go to the device manager, to get there, rt click on my computer, select properties,

    then the hardware tab, then click on device manager button.

    then look for the keyboard, and uninstall the driver. then reboot and the pc will look up the correct drivers for the keyboard,

    try this and see if it helps.

  9. :( :( :( :( :( :(

    My parents told me he won't be around long. He's just too weak and doesn't want to eat.  It was just supposed to be a short 1-2 week stay. It's been 5 weeks. He had some kinda tear in his intestine's from something he had in him from his cancer treatment about 1 1/2-2 years back. I pray he finds the will to start eating and get better.

    :( :( :( :( :( :(

    i have a good idea what you are going through. my grandfather passed away the first friday of june.

    he had been in the nursing home for a year and a half. he had some strokes.

    i was able to see him on the wed before he went.

    thing to do is spend as much time as you can with him. listen, and also never forget to say you love him. i know that if he does go, it will be very hard for you.

    i still miss mine.

    i wish all the luck in the world for him to get better.

    and always kep your chin up.

    best wishes from

  10. OK folks I was just wondering something.  I know I can't use my XP disk and key on installing it on 2 or more computers, but what if someone bought a pc with XP pre-installed but no cd?  Would I be breaking any laws by using my cd, but using the key that they have with your computer?  The computer in question is a fairly new HP with a restore partition on it, but with all of the junk that they load on it, it runs like crap.  Would their key work with a fresh install?

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

    it will not work. also the key used on teh pc with XP preinstalled that has a restore partition, is an OEM, and it can not be transfered to another pc. also i tried to do what you are talking about, and it will not work.

  11. HOW TO: Take Ownership of a File or Folder in Windows XP

    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...b;en-us;Q308421

    Take Ownership of Your Files and Folders

    Windows Explorer/Locate the file or folder in question/Right Click/Properties/Security/Advanced/Owner Tab. In the change owner box, click new owner.

    [To Display the Security Tab: Start/Settings/Control Panel/Appearance & Themes/Folder Options. View/Advanced

    and clear "Use Simple File Sharing".]

    You can transfer ownership in two ways:

    The current owner can grant the Take ownership permission to others, allowing those users to take ownership at any

    time.

    An administrator can take ownership of any file on the computer. However, the administrator cannot transfer ownership

    to others. This restriction keeps the administrator accountable.

    Note: In Windows XP Professional, the Everyone group no longer includes the Anonymous Logon group.

  12. i can mess with removing modem idk how to go throught it again, but before it just connected autmotically at startup cause i had the option dial whenever a connection is not present, now it keeps changing it to nver dial a connection

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

    if you are using a dsl connection, then yuo do not use a dial up connection.

    dsl is like cable it is on all the time. it is a broadband connection.

    dial up uses your phone hookup and has to dial out to connect. but when you turn on the pc dsl will be connected automatically.

  13. if you are using a network card and are connected to a dsl modem, and use the cat 5 cable, then yuo need to go to control panel, and then modems, and if there is a modem shown there, disable it or remove it.

    then go to internet options,

    connections, and make sure it is marked never dial a connection, and then go through the network set up.

    apply, and restart.

    another thing to do is if you have spybot S&D, or adaware, run them.

    it sounds like you have clicked on a dialer trojan. where they try to dial up at start up tinking you have dial up, but you are not using it.

  14. was the PC home built(custom) or manufactured, like HP, Compaq, Dell and so on?

    if it was manufactured, is it less than a year old?

    if so, then the hard drive is under warranty. if custom built, see if the warranty is up from where it was bought.

    if it is out of warranty, the cost of another hard drive is less than you think.

    you just have to know what type of HDD to get. whether it is sata or ata, and whether it is a 5400 rpm or 7200 rpm.

    but if you were unable to format and install then it does sound like the hdd is bad. there is not much you can do to fix it, except replace it.

  15. Hey I have a motherboard that says it will support "unregistered non-ECC DDR 400/333/266 DRAM up to 4GB". I am wondering can I use sdram memory for this board? And what if it IS registered?

    I think they are simply toting some pluses here, but I don't want to take the chance of buying something and it not working.

    The manufactor is in Japan (hint: when buying a product like this make sure they have toll free number), so I can't call them, and the store from which I purchased the item is withholding any techincal type comments (jerks).

    Thanks ahead of time for your help!
