Awesome!!!! The highway just re-opened today at 12:00; it was closed on Tuesday. The flood waters have receded:-) Our natural gas line should be repaired in 2-3 days.

Amazing stuff. We need to stay one step ahead of these cretins.

So this morning I was checking my junk mail folder in T Bird ( I have my junk mail folder set to automatically delete all items after 1 day has passed). I was wondering why some of the spam wasn't being automagically deleted. Then I did a double take. A few of the messages were dated 06/10/2040! Clever.

garmanma: Yeah, I've read about those huge hail stones.....thankfully I've never experienced them. Yeah, so far we're okay:-) Carnevil: LOL, I have to admit that when this first happened I did go out and buy a few more tall ones than usual........for medicinal purposes of course. irregularjoe: Yes, adversity does make life interesting. There's an old Chinese curse that goes like this: "May you live in interesting times". Heh, I'm looking forward to boring times:-) Chappy: Thanks for the offer of the lettuce, Dave! If we get desperate I'll go up on the roof and put a target there so y

Hey Pete_C, handplane, bozodog, Carnevil:-) Pete_C: Yeah I haven't been inconvenienced too much as I don't need to travel out of town yet. I'm hoping to do a road trip in July so I'm hopeful that the waters will recede by then. Yes, we do have beautiful scenery here and the weather is typically rainy and cool. Man, 90 degree heat would freak me out:-) handplane: Thanks for the well wishes. We are in no danger at the present time. I'm hopeful that a fuel barge will arrive in town so I can gas-up my Malibu:-) We are doing fine thank you:-) bozodog: You are right! I have not endured any

Heh, my life in this neck of the woods has been quite interesting as of late. Up here in Prince Rupert, B.C., Canada we have had a series of events that are quite unusual. A month or two ago we had a landslide that knocked out main power in our town for about a month and we lived on auxiliary power supplied by two large generators. Recently some other things have happened. We had another landslide which closed the highway; the road was covered by 40 feet of rocks and mud. Sadly two people in their car were killed in the slide. After several days road crews got the debris cleared. Last we

Whoa, thanks for the tip, bozodog! I've got a 4 year old in daycare.

Funny stuff, Marty:-)

You're very welcome, Bubba Bob:-) Glad you got Mandriva up and running!

Great to hear you found your product key:-) I'm closing this thread as this issue has been resolved.

A linux live CD will boot your computer completely from the CD, not from your HD. During the boot process the live CD detects your computer hardware and in this way you can determine if Linux will support your video card, sound card, NIC, printer, etc before you install linux. A live CD is a good diagnostic tool to determine if your computer is linux ready. Good to hear you got your issue sorted out. It is strange that your computer wouldn't take the two sticks of RAM.

Maybe try some of the linux live CDs like Ubuntu, Mandriva One and see if they detect the hardware in the computer.
