They're attached at the ball. :&

I once clipped my finger and toe nails over an empty Pringles can to catch the clippings. I then put the lid on the can so it wouldn't tip over and spill, intending to throw it away later. Apparently, it wasn't soon enough for my mother! She picked up the can, shook it, heard the rattling, figured, "I'll finish off the crumbs!" opened the can and... :&

Yes, but, it only made me stronger! Gave me time to plan, and plot, and conspire! And, now, my best laid plans, and years of tears, are coming to fruition! BWAH HA HA!

Well, it does appear to be a dumb little bug. Probably just an error in the Javascript listed.

Sorry, discussion of ripping is verboten. Even if it's about the delicate fabric of cosmological corporeality.

We'll just add this to the pile of pubic wigs.

This thread reminds me of the time I had left a bottle of RC in the car before going into the local area museum one Sunday many years ago. Came back and started to swig from my drink when my eyes caught something floating in the fluid, coming closer and closer to being swallowed: a dead bee! :& It must have been attracted by the sweet liquid, flew in, and drowned. Or the time a fly flew up my nostril, right up my bloody nostril (Well, it wasn't bleeding, actually... ) Or the time at the barbecue when I was talking and fly flew straight at my mouth. However, the odd thing was it would have gone into my throat... but, I was talking at the time and my lips just miraculously happened to come down ON the fly! Trapped that blighter right between my lips in mid speech!

To go with Siamese ass twins, ask yourself this ponderous question: how can you handcuff a man who has only 1 arm?

Ah, yes, that time of year again! Time to get out the knife, grab a pumpkin, and get to work. You know the one thing I can never understand? I never get to finish a Ever. I always get really cool and faint, unable to go on with- Oh, I never noticed before! That's not a pumpkin I keep carving. That's my chest!

Came across this incredibly bizarre article: http://www.zap2it.com/movies/news/story/0,...--26960,00.html "The Curse of the Word 'Rabbit' Fri, Oct 07, 2005, 10:10 AM PT LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) In deference to local superstition, the folks behind "Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit" have struck the word "rabbit" from posters for the film on the isle of Portland in Dorset, reports the BBC News. The isle -- which is actually attached to the southern portion of the British mainland by a strip of land -- is known for its quarries, where the hairy critters once created dangerous landslips. "If the word 'rabbit' is used in company in Portland there is generally a bit of a hush," says mayor Les Ames. "In the olden days when quarrying was done by hand, if one of these animals was seen in the area, the quarryman would pack up and go home for the day -- until the safety of the area had been reconnoitered. "It is an unwritten rule in Portland that you do not use the word rabbit." Locals instead have gotten creative, calling the animals "underground mutton" or "furry things." Aardman Animations decided to respect local folklore and printed up posters that simply say: "Something bunny is going on." "Wallace & Gromit" is currently in theaters stateside and will open in the UK on Friday, Oct. 14. " God in a bottle, is this blatherscythe true? I thought it was stupid enough here in the US where some buildings refuse to number a 13th floor, put a button numbered 13 in the elevators, etc. So, what, in Portland was it called "Who Framed Roger Underground Mutton?" All I have to say, if this is true, is this simple question in retort: Eh, what's up with that, Doc?!

No, I don't think you do. I *WISH* I had been able to spend that way.

I could make a pussy joke now... oh, wait. I just did!

What's the matter? Catwoman got your tongue? Am I the bane of your existence? Going mad as a hatter?

Zoologist said a certain bat man was responsible. One of the penguins started seeing him, whereas the other hated him with a passion. At first, it was a riddle the penguin couldn't solve. Eventually, to make himself feel better, he wrote off his former partner as just a joker, not serious about their relationship. That penguin has lately been seen courting other members of the bird family, such as a robin.

kevdriver, that personal photo might be a little TOO personal! Might distract people and cause delayed reply syndrome. As for country music, kirk, I might not want to release my song in the UK, then. It's a C&W take on "God Save The Queen." The music is changed and the words become "God Damn The Queen."

You can edit the posts... but, you can't edit the e-mails that the server sends out.

Yes, please refrain from calling me kirk again.

I believe every single time George Jones has "signed" to appear here in town at the Executive Inn, he's always cancelled.

Thanks, but, I don't need to dual boot. I need to figure out how Windows is loading something other than Windows so I can recreate it myself on a bootable CD. Plus, I believe Acronis uses Linux, so, dual booting to DOS won't help much.

More than just a mouse, remember. A mouse corpse! Hey, kirk! You mean George "No Show" Jones? George "DUI On A Riding Lawnmower" Jones?

Don't know. Given how relatively new it is, it should use copy and delete. HOWEVER, it is a Microsoft program, so, it may not even work! Just SAYS it actually did the defragmentation it claims!
-
You can lose data if Windows restarts/PC shuts off suddenly while a defrag is happening. Now, this data loss actually can be fixed, just not easily, plus, it rarely happens. Depends on the defragger, too. Most should be smart enough to copy first, then delete... but, you never know. Some may just move instead of copy then delete.

There are some applications, such as Drive Image 5 and 6 and Acronis True Image and Disk Director that cannot directly write to C:\ if it's in use by Windows, which is always, of course. So, they have the ability to restart Windows and instead of starting Windows, they boot into "DOS" (In the case of Acronis, it's Linux, I think.) and run the "DOS" based utility. My question is how. By this, I want to be able to find out what is running instead of Windows. I've tried booting off of a floppy after Windows restarts and before it restarts into DOS and checked the usual culprits: AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, IO.SYS, MS-DOS.SYS, and BOOT.INI But, nothing is ever out of the ordinary there to give me a clue as to what is running. Are there other .INI etc. files I can check here to see what will be running after restart? And, anyone know what they are and willing to pass the info along. Thanks!

The only way has been to go and edit your own posts to turn into junk. Of course, any quoted replies will still reveal your sins to the world.
