  1. I envy you, Hondaboy--wanna come over and shovel??? Actually I just finished (for now) The silver dollar snowflakes resulted in about 8" of blue snow here. Great for snowmen, lousy for shovelling. Liz
  2. As far as Kapersky goes, check this deal out--go to the second page. Free after rebate! Kudos to Barb for sharing this site! Didn't look any farther past the Kapersky deal, Nod32 might be offered, too.... Liz
  3. Happy Birthday, Steve! Hope you have a wonderful day Liz
  4. Hmmm, some of the video worked just fine on my end??? Anyways LOVED The Fruitcake Lady!! I remember the very first time she was on The Late Show, what a hoot and glad Jay Leno kept her great advice on the air Havent figured out the YouTube thingy here so here's a link--but it might have a language warning! Liz
  5. Not a problem, Marty, the joke is funny whether you're male or female! (in fact, actually a little funnier for the ladies ) Liz
  6. Yeeeaaauuuup. Except you forgot "hungry" Liz
  7. Hey, cancer free is GREAT, Bearskin!!! As far as quitting smoking, I'm mad at you, too ;) I betcha if you say, "Hmmm, I need to lose some weight", you don't do anything different and the pounds just drop off. Men!!!!!! And glad we still have our MEguy onboard! Liz
  8. Awwww, precious! "Bah Humbug" Liz
  9. Oh, man, Bearskin, you HAVE had a rough year! Joining the others with a wish that 2008 is a stellar year for you I'm glad you checked in Liz
  10. Jsky, you just made my DAY and today has been a terrific day (finished Christmas shopping)!! Thanks! (yahhhh, I know, I know, fret about the little thing, but doggone it, even though I haven't used IE7, just watching the kids use it on their idiotboxes, I don't want it! Tabs shmabs ) Liz
  11. You're right, Terrorist!! Guess that is a "fair weather only" car Liz
  12. Jsky, could you please do me a favor when you get a chance and see if IE7 is in your Add/Remove Program list? I've heard that if you remove IE7 that IE automatically reverts back to IE6 and thinkin' that if SP3 installs IE7, perhaps I can go back to IE6 through Add/Remove Programs (does that make any sense??) Bozodog thinks like I do! Teach Old Dogs new tricks when they LIKE the old stuff??? Not without a lot of bellyaching! Liz
  13. That IS kewl!! Love the shot with the babyseat and remembering the very short time we had a two door car after Daughter was born (we traded for four doors very quickly at my insistance!!) The narrator sounds like the Dyson Vacuum Guy, though..... Liz
  14. Ohhhhhh, y'got me good, Marty! Sending that one to Sister the Golfer Liz
  15. Oh, dear..... Son has actually done this: "2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5 minute intervals" And this is Daughter's Tom Cruise Impersonation: "11. December 3: Darted around the store (house) suspiciously while loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme." And y'wonder why those kids drive me nuts??? Liz
  16. Terrorist, you're getting kinda the weather we had yesterday (you being "downwind" of us). It rained, then got foggy, then it all froze last night, then snowed about 3" on top of the ice. The sideroads are just treacherous!! Icy and rutted. So drive carefully!! My errands are done....not leaving the house until the sand trucks catch up! Liz
  17. "1H CY2008" Okayyyyy, I understand the 2008 part, what does the rest of it mean?? And since Jsky wrote that if one kept up with updates that SP3 maybe won't be necessary, does anyone know if MS is going to "play hardball" with forcing us to update to it like they did with SP2? (the whole "I'm gonna withold new updates tactic") Oh, and edit again Youse who have installed SP3--does it force you to install IE7? The kids have it, love it, I don't like it and don't want it. Tabbed browsing does nothing for me, gimme the old fashioned methods!! Liz

    "TEACHER: John, why are you doing your math multiplication on the floor? JOHN: You told me to do it without using tables." I think John was originally named Aron--that is SO something Son would do!!! (and any reason to hop out of his desk! ) Liz
  19. I have magic powers!!!! :D Nahhh......I just look at the bottom of the forum's main page where it lists the daily Birthdays Being a Night Owl (or waiting for a kid to come home like I am right now!!) means I'm usually just the first one to notice a new Birthday......Luck o' the Irish.... Liz
  20. Kudos to SisterSue. LOVE number 4 and heading to a copy machine as soon as the weather straightens out Read this and make a copy for your files in case you need to refer to it someday. 1.) Do not sign the back of your credit cards . Instead, put ' PHOTO ID REQUIRED ' 2.)When you are writing checks to pay on your credit card accounts, DO NOT put the complete account number on the 'For' line. Instead, just put the last four numbers . The credit card company knows the rest of the number, and anyone who might be handling your check as it passes through all the check processing channels won't have
  21. I HATE WINTER!!!!!! Woke up to sn*w on the ground and it didn't melt away. *stomp* And yessss the weather reports say we're getting Shanenin's weather tomorrow.
