  1. I just used one of these.
  2. I should have been printing all my pictures all along and making a book, could have called it "BMT Funnies". Now most of them have been deleted long ago. Oh well, I didn't even know I was a genious 'til yesterday.
  3. Truck's broke down, everything's shut down for Christmas, there was a foot of snow on the ground, now there's 2 inches of snow and 6 inches of mud on the ground- the excuses go on and on. I'll call headquarters right now and see if i'm getting out of here today.
  4. Yes, it'll ne good to get back to work and get some excercise. All i've done is sit around and get fatter for a week.
  5. Amen to that, well said!
  6. Well, I hope somebody is keeping a record of my geniousiosity then!
  7. sorry...I know I need help. This is a serious topic, not "Odds and Ends". As you know, the first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem, so I guess i'm well on my way then.
  8. So you could prolly look under the couch cushions, go through the junk drawers, clean out the closet, and build a computer with what you find...that's good to know!
  9. Bad news about the oysters-they were on the top shelf in the fridge and froze. The jar is cracked all up the sides. Jo's in favor of cooking them anyway, but i'm worried about glass slivers in them. I wrapped duct tape around the jar, but I just don't know...they cost $22 and I hate to throw 'em out, but when in doubt...
  10. It is a good looking unit. Knew i'd seen it somewhere before.
  11. A-HAH! I've got it! You can probably find an old knuckle boom loader somewhere off a pulpwood truck or something. Be sure to get one with about 37 control levers on it. Then you can mount it on one of your trucks and just park it out in back and get on it whenever you want to and move a stack of cinderblocks from one side the truck to the other or something.
  12. I stuck to the plan, didn't git nobody nuthin', except the digital picture frame for Mom and Dad and I got Jo a digital camera. We agreed earlier that we weren't getting anything for each other, but I knew better than to stick to that part of the plan! I was gonna get her a snow shovel, but I couldn't find one.
  13. geez, here we go again! You do not need a grapple truck.
  14. here's a nice looking unit much cheaper http://www.truckpaper.com/list/list.aspx?ETID=1&catid=27&Manu=MACK&Mdltxt=F700&mdlx=exact&bcatid=27
  15. So much for my diet too-the boston butt I smoked is delicious. I pulled the bone out and just pulled the meat apart, removing most of the fat and yucky stuff, and put it in an aluminum pan. Very easy to reheat, but hard to stop nibbling on. Wrapped the loin in wreynolds wrap and put it in the fridge, haven't tasted it yet. I also bought a quart of oysters I couldn't afford. Oh well, Chrismas only comes once a year, eh? That's enough to have plenty to fry (my favorite) and for oyster stew. Jo likes the stew best, I can take it or leave it. Mostly leave it.
  16. Geez, how did you gain all this computer knowledge? If I empty the recycle bin without something screwing up it's quite an accomplishment for me!
  17. I sent Bill an offline instant message and relayed the problem to him. Even left a link to this post, so maybe he can help. I don't know anything about XP and very little about anything else. Or find a neighborhood kid around 10-12 years old, they can prolly fix it...good luck.
  18. can you uninstall AVG through the control panel then reinstall it? You're trying to uninstall it, not just delete it? That's what I've had to do before- uninstall a program, then do a search in all files and folders for it, delete anything pertaining to it in the search, then reinstalled it. It still didn't work of course, but that's what I did. Old Bill told me that when we used to chat on skype every Saturday morning, back when my webcam still worked. He said even when you uninstall a program sometimes it will still have parts and pieces floating around up in there. Well, he didn't say that exactly, but that's kind of the idea. Sometimes it won't uninstall completely. And the AVG itself might not be letting you complete the operation.
  19. I marinated the tenderloin overnight in a ziplock bag in a mixture of worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, bbq sauce, garlic powder, minced onion...I think that's all. Didn't marinate the butt, put a little olive oil on it then coated it with the rub-my own concoction, but it has the usual garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, crushed red pepper, cumin, chili powder, sage...i'm sure there's other stuff I left out-whatever's in the spice rack that you never use is probably in there. I'd have to send it off to the crime lab to find out for sure.
  20. I would go back with Windows XP before I would Vista. Old Bill has Windows XP Professional and I have Vista home premium. He told me many times that I should have my PC reformatted and have XP installed. I thought about upgrading to Windows 7, but it costs $119.95. Vista has many issues- for the most part mine works ok, but my webcam just quit working one day and there are no available updates to fix it. Same with my scanner, but the printer still works OK. My son has XP too and hasn't had any problems. I don't know that much about computers either, but from what I hear if I didn't go to the new Windows 7 i'd go with XP over Vista.
  21. Couldn't say. I'm not, but I feel sure somebody is.
  22. well-there's the phone again...
