  1. I read it - and was giving an alternative to blindly trusting the program And your last statement shows that you are not to be trusted.
  2. I use Quicken Deluxe 2008. Well, if you spend a couple of minutes every day, you don't have to worry about just blindly trusting the downloads. I check the credit card almost every day, so there's only 4-8 transactions I need to review and it makes it simple to tell if it's a legit purchase or not (and I have found a few bank errors in the past). It's much more accurate than a spreadsheet because you don't have to worry about mistyping your data into the spreadsheet either. Typos would be my biggest concern with a spreadsheet.
  3. I use Quicken and love it -- but don't love that they force you to buy a new version every 2 years. MS Money does the same thing. If you think that you can use a spreadsheet, then you're not using the full power of the software. Quicken (and Money) integrate with financial institutions so you can literally click a button and download all of your transactions. Very simple. You can also use it to track spending on certain categories - for example, how much did you spend eating out for lunch over the past 3 months compared to the same period last year? Stuff like that. I'm a huge fan - and track everything with it, including money that travels in and out of my wallet. I'm a bit fanatical, but I love being able to see where every penny goes and it helps you curtail your spending by identifying waste. It's had a few bugs here and there, but overall it's been relatively stable. That said, I would've been happy to still be using the 2002 version.
  4. ctrl-alt-meta-shift-x-y-z-z-y There, just saved my document in emacs.
  5. Can't you use vi?
  6. I heard about the Favre thing on Sunday. Crazy. Talk about a jerk. There's a reason most people in Green Bay hate the guy now.
  7. Did they actually go onto the roof to confirm that the trees were an issue? Most of the time that's the classic excuse the installers use to skip the "hard" installs. They get paid per install, so the 30 minute ones are better for their bottom line than the 4 hour ones. Based on your email, I'm guessing you got a lazy one.
  8. Sorry I made the CC comment, Pooj....
  9. So he'd rather play for a known crappy team than a team that MIGHT be able to put something together and give him the opportunity to win his first ever playoff game...?
  10. Their 3rd stringers, like Pro Bowl HB Willie Parker and their first string OL?
  11. Seriously??? Once you outlaw mylar balloons, only outlaws will have mylar balloons!
  12. Newcomers would go to forums.twobillsdrive.com and may not understand what "The Stadium Wall" means because that's not the URL they went to. If you pushed the branding, that would probably help quite a bit. Unless you want to get away from that name in general, which is also a valid option.
  13. It's going to be very confusing for people when they hear "The Wall," "TSW," or look at the "Off the wall" forum. But I don't think it really matters either way. Whichever is easier for you to maintain.
  14. Oh... I was thinking something like, "Every home game, the limo drivers release a boquet of balloons to celebrate something or other, so of course the balloons came from there!"
  15. Care to explain...? Or am I the only person who doesn't know what you're talking about?
  16. Buy a copy from Circuit City. Seriously though, there's software you can download which will tell you the key that was used to unlock the software. Otherwise, there's no way to get that information.
  17. Yeah, it's only been 10 years....
  18. Really? Wow, surprising since they showed some video from the power outages on the broadcast yesterday. Just assumed they were recording everything, but I guess not.
  19. After the Saints/Vikes game, a lot of the players rallied around the punter and critisized what Childress said to the press, especially after Childress brought in other punters to "audition" for a spot - like they had any intention of signing them. If they cut the punter, I think the coach loses control of the team.
  20. NFL Network will probably air it, since they were recording. DirecTV also has a "Shortcuts" program where they cut each game down to 30 minutes -- every play, just without the filler in between.
  21. Well, they have to care somewhat, as stadium concession sales are a big revenue factor.
  22. I loved Fight Club. Awesome flick!
  23. I dream of electric sheep.
  24. And as stated -- if you're out of the local market, you will need to pay for Center Ice to get the games. The regional sports channels do NOT show actual games except for in the local area - just the pre/post game stuff.
  25. Oh, looks like Ken Johnson isn't involved in this show... Nevermind, I'm not quite as excited anymore http://news.yahoo.com/s/eonline/20081011/e...7.OFhnr8nURr7sF
