other dog

One was right across the road yesterday, when it looked like this. It was yellow. Today there was a big green one over there. Now it looks like this over there. Shouldn't have to worry about my interweb signal being blocked for a few years anyway.

I never had prime rib before, so I decided to cook one today...looks pretty good for being cooked on a stick over a fire in a tin can! I put my red jacket on to carve it- I wasn't sure what to do with it, so I put a slice between two pieces of bread and smothered it with ketchup- pretty tasty!

I saw it on facebook yesterday and it said it was in Iowa, just saw it on facebook again a little while ago and this time it said it happened in Nebraska.

Thanks Bob, and happy new year everybody.

Well said! It's nice to see someone who's not afraid to ask questions, and even nicer that none of the replies are to ridicule or make fun of a new driver.

Just got finished installing Google Earth.

She passed out, uh, I mean fell asleep right after she drank it. Then I heard gravel crunching in the driveway and didn't know how I could explain the sleeping neighbor, so I carried her out the back door and dragged her over to her own yard. I didn't have time to carry her inside, so I just left her laying in her back yard. I had just gotten back in the back door and sat down when Jo came in the front door. I went over to check on her today and she was fine- she didn't seem to remember being drugged, uh, I mean dragged across the yard.

Yep, if somebody's looking for a project that looks like a good one, and affordable.

Yeah, she just moved in next door. I was just sitting here watching the Cosby show and got an ideer. Jo had to go to the store and as soon as she got out of the driveway I ran next door to invite the new neighbor over for some kool-aid.

This has Windows 8.1 I had to test to see if I could post pictures.

I just installed google chrome, always had good luck with that.

Well, it's a done deal. I went to the Wal Mart store to get a USB flash drive, and left with that and a new PC. Haven't hooked it up yet, i'm running a final virus scan, then i'll save my pictures and documents to put in the new one. I got another HP, with 8gb memory. I'm not sure what that even means, but i'm pretty sure it's twice as much memory as the Acer they had with 4 gb's memory. It says on the box it will store 176,000 pictures, so I can put about 170,000 more on it.

thanks, yes, I already have malwarebytes, avast pro anti-virus, fix-it-utilities professional pc optimizer, and run the disc. defrag. regularly. The remote repairs people used all kinds of programs and super virus killers and found nothing. It still works, i'm using it now, but you can't install any updates. When you try to install updates it won't restart at all until you use system restore to go back before the updates were installed- i've had to do that 3 or 4 times this week.

Old Bill always said XP was the best, and Vista was junk. I called him last night and he said vista was the Edsel of windows. He also recommended I just get a new computer. He said windows 7 wasn't much different from XP, but he couldn't do anything with windows 8 and had windows 8 removed and installed windows 7 on his last pc.

Thanks, I just don't know whether to do it or just get a new one, mainly because this one is so old. I do like windows vista, i'd have to learn all over how to work windows 8, or whatever the new ones have now.

I've been having a lot of issues lately- freezing, hanging up, blue screen, shutting down unexpectedly for no apparent reason, and so on. And every virus scan comes up clean, every optimizer program says my PC is optimized, registry clean, no defects found. I've had computer experts working on it remotely every day since the day before Christmas, and they finally gave up on it yesterday. They suggested I get a USB flash drive to save my pictures and documents and they were going to use the whatcha-ma-callit restore to put everything back like it was when it left the factory, totally clean everything, and reload windows. I thought since this PC was made in 2006 i'd probably be as well off to just get a new one. All I need is the tower part, and new ones have waaaay more memory than this one. Has anybody here ever done the system restore thing?

Excellent! Thank you.

I'm with bullhusk, fracking is everywhere in Pa, Oh, and W.V. That will get you out of city traffic and tolls. Traffic and tolls might not bother you, but nobody wants to work for a dick.

It's all over 'til next year.

All I got was this, nice!

Yeah, uh-huh...sure you did Ken, sure you did.
