  1. Probably not supposed to be posting in here and the bosses can delete this if I'm breaking a rule, but I can't resist sending a big thank you to RubberDucky for posting these fixes! I've been reading each post and I've sent along a couple of your helpful links so far to folks complaining of a specific cootie. Sure appreciate what you are doing! Liz

    Safe Sex

    Groannnnn......and sending that to the kids! Liz
  5. Also one of my favorites. Put on a sweatshirt and pushed up the sleeves, just for George Liz
  6. SIL had a hysterectomy a week before Mothers Day and she had no children. Daughter, not knowing SIL had the surgery, sent her a Mothers Day Email, including, "Since you have no kids and you're like a second mother to me, I want to wish you a happy Mothers Day" That meant more to my SIL than Daughter will EVER know. She still gets yearly Mothers Day wishes from Daughter, they are still so special to her! So yes, acknowledge Fathers Day, your Grandfather may feel just as Blessed as my Sister did. Liz
  7. Happy Birthday, Mark! Have a terrific day Liz

  12. Soooo, Matttttt's in charge, eh? Hmmm, thinking of all kinds of dastardly deeds now....wish me luck! Have a wonderful Cruise, Jeff and Mandy! Piece of advice, use the stairs instead of the elevator, that way you can eat as much as you want! Liz
  13. Hi Vbravoori and welcome to Besttechie's! The experts probably need more details--does anything happen when you push the power button? Do any screens appear and what are they? Error messages? (write down the exact wording) Because it once happened to me, make sure the outlet the computer is plugged into is working and make sure there aren't any flash drives, etc plugged into the computer.

  14. Happy Birthday, Neldy! Hope you have a wonderful day Liz
  15. Good to know, Nancy and thanks! The kids are moving home for the Summer and Son was complaining about my IE6. As usual, I dug my heels in, BUT when he brings his idiotbox home, we're gonna trade so I can see his IE7 and try it out. Good compromise, huh? So who knows....after using it, I may just like it and switch. And good to "see" you again, Nancy. Liz
  16. Well, I honestly am amazed CC has lasted as long as it has. In my area, I gave up on 'em because they rarely had their advertised items on the shelves and of course never offered rainchecks. So, no matter how good a deal they advertised, it wasn't worth the 60 mile round trip to likely come back empty handed...hey, how can you already be "sold out" on SUNDAY???? Liz
  17. I missed your birthday, Brian? Shoot! Where was I? (duh, oops I never got online yesterday!!!) Anyways..... Happy Belated Birthday, Brian!!! I hope you had a fantastic day!! Liz
  18. I'm with Terrorist as far as ignoring SP3 until MS forces us to download it. There is another thread 'round here where I was asking about the very same thing and I think the concensis was that SP3 included IE7 and there was "no goin' back" unless you removed SP3. My concern is that I'm used to and like IE6 (IE7 just has a star on the toolbar where IE6 has a star AND "favorites" next to the star--I need WORDS, not symbols! I forget what symbols mean, I'm old and stupid. And that tabbed browsing thing just bugs me) And I was assured as long as I kept installing the critical updates, I was s
  19. Marty, you're on a roll! Liz
  20. Ohhhh, how I know!! I finally decided I was going to write down time, date, license numbers of Cops breaking Road Rules and turn them into the Police Station.....only problem is that they are usually driving so fast that I can't get the plate number. Liz

  23. *happydance!* I don't know how warm it got today but it was warm enough to wear shirtsleeves IF you were in the sun. Finally! De-weeded the vegetable garden AND the raspberry patch. #$@%&* Creeping Charlie decided to overtake the entire area. I hate that stuff. I swear it grows under the snow. Ah, yes, the great feeling of having dirt under my fingernails! I gots Spring Fever bad, now. Can't wait to get back outside to play. Oh, and my backyard smells like violets Liz
  24. Happy Birthday, Siddy! Hope you have a wonderful day Liz
  25. Happy Birthday, Hondaboy!! Hope you have a terrific day Liz
