  1. Well...the media tells them that children aren't safe, so who are they to disagree, even though there hasn't been a recorded instance of any crime in their neighborhoods in the past three years.  :devil:

    Some people (myself included) have no yard in which my little girl can play. So we have to take her to the park. Not a big deal, but for that reason she probably watches a few more videos than the average kid.

  2. I hope so, just hard not right clicking things and such. I call it my $1500 internet machine, as that is about all i can do with it. At least Mozilla works on it, not sure if I could figure out Safari lol

    That's about the Mac in a nutshell.

     

    If you're a gamer, Macs are a joke. If you're into playing poker online, Macs are a joke. If you're serious about accounting, Macs are ridiculous.

     

    About the only thing that a Mac can do well that a PC can't is design.

     

    Adobe apps seem tailor-made for Macs.

     

    Not that I love Microshaft or anything, but until Linux starts growing a bit, it's the best thing out there.

  3. The Zen Micro (and the ipod) are hard drive players so they CAN skip, but both have some level of buffering to counteract this.  A flash player is better for jogging, etc, but my Zen has not skipped yet under normal circumstances.....

    Well, I've been running, and I knwo the iPod mini has something like 25 minutes worth of skip protection on it. I just didn't see anything on the zen site about it.

  4. I know - its a lot to lose huh?

     

    Last time I did WW i lost the same amount each week (about 2.5-4lbs a week) and lost a total for 75lbs. I but 45 back on but not until I had stayed at a low weight for over a year - only when I went back to chocolate and eating what I liked did I put weight back on.

     

    I excersize at the gym 4 times a week doing cardi as well as a weights programme and play football (undersized injury prone Guard) on Sundays...

     

    Thanks for the concern - but I am ok!

    I am also doing WW. I lost 6.25 at my first weekly weigh in. People always lose more weight at first because of water weight, but I feel pretty good nonetheless. Energy level is up and I am exercising again.

  5. I always thought that fruity little bastard grabbed his ankles. One less show my kid is going watch...

    I refuse to let mine watch Barney.

     

    I don't like the message that if you love everyone enough, they'll love you back.

     

    It's just not true. Kids need to learn that in the world today there are predatory and ruthless people.

  6. It's not that simple of course.  As usual the truth lies somewhere in between.  The system needs to be fixed, but it's not on the verge of collapse.  But hey, Bushistas have learned that modern Americans, apparently, are chickenshit cowards who cave in the minute a crisis appears on the horizon.  So who can blame them for creating a convenient crisis?

    hey, Debbie...I'm a modern American and I'm no chickenshit coward. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:

  7. And to go back to the "they hate us," why do they?  Because we are seen as an "Evil Empire" bent on "destroying Islam."  That is what the radicals are telling the people to harden them against us.  And they listen to the radicals because the radicals protect and support them.  What do you think the effect is of people receiving food stamped with "courtesy of the US Gov't," or at the very least being given by Western aid workers and military versus the effect of us saying "your problem, deal with it?"  This kind of aid at this time of need does help fight the War on Terror.

    We'll see about that. See, where you and I differ is I think that some portion of this money being sent to help those people is ending up in the hands of some really bad people who will use it for murderous purposes.

     

    Simple answer: I don't TRUST the people that live there enought ot send them aid. I know what happened when we sent aid to Ethiopia: the bad guys got their hands on it and the average shmuck saw nothing of it.

  8. This might be a good time to point you to my PC Home Security presentation.

    If you're running Win2k or WinXP, you should set yourself up as the administrator and give your son's account regular user access so he can't install stuff without your permission.

    Ding ding ding!

     

    That's how I keep my idiot customers from installing all manner of stuff.

  9. i did, i was onyl 9, and when norwood missed that kick, i fell to the floor and cried my eyes out...it was the end of the world...i mean we were supposed to win and i was getting all excited about him making the kick...then it sailed wide and my heart sank...:D

    9 and 10? Cripes, you people are young.

  10. Liberals haven't taken over the Democratic party.  Goodness, they're just Republican Lites.  The Republican party has swung so far to the right that they make a moderate Democrat look like a wild-eyed radical.  When in fact it's the GOP who's radical.

    Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. Tell that to Howard Dean who very nearly stole the Democratic nomination out from under the "moderates".

  11. That's not so much racist as it is 100% true.  Black guys look good in clothes that white guys just can't pull off.

    But in the reverse, I think if you put a black gentleman in a Brooks Brothers pin-stripe suit with power tie and wingtips, he looks a bit out of place.

     

    Different strokes for different folks.
