  1. Hi Christi. I remember you two. We were in your twig first block when we first came in residence. Your Mom and Dad were good folks. I stop by here every three months of so just to catch up on the gossip. You can email me if you like. RB
  2. (ex) Family 21 here. We left a month or two before graduation. Glad to be rid of that two bit operation. However... What I enjoyed the most of our time in residence was the time we spent at the Indiana Campus. Each season had it's own charm. I spent much of my time in the AV dept. It was a different sort of lifestyle being cooped up in that hot little booth. I remember Bowtwi and Bowtwi jr. Any other F21 folks floating by? RB
  3. Take a look at these guys too. I have had them for the last three years and they have been down ONCE and that was for about 15 minutes. They are outstanding! RB
  4. What is the problem with QV6? Is it just the fact that the CD needs to be in the drive? Enquiring minds want to know. RB
  5. I have a copy of QV4 and like it. E-mail me if you want a copy. RB
  6. Hi Herbiejuan, What is the file extention? A Word document would have a *.doc at the end of the file. Oh yeah... you do have Word on your computer, don't you? RB
  7. Thanks Zix... I just got an email from a friend which suggested this linkfor a fix. Problem solved. Another happy customer. RB
  8. I like IE to open with a blank window when I launch the program, and I have about:blank as the default setting in Tools | Options. My problem is that every time I boot my system up and launch IE, it opens with "Cool Web Search" (URL: http://66.250.130.194/index.php?acc=2002). If I go to Tools | Options and reset the start page to blank, it opens as blank from that point forward until I shut down and start up again. This has been going on for about three weeks and is getting annoying. I am running Win2K SP3, IE6 SP1. I have gone into Regedit and searched on this URL thinking that some web page placed an edit in my registry, but came up empty. I am not real comfortable rummaging around in the registry unless I know what I am looking for, so I haven?t gone much deeper. I have Ad-aware 5.0 (release 5.7) and other than the usual doubleclick cookies, it came up with this one entry. Any ideas? RB
  9. Hi John, What's the benefits of W2K3 over W2K pro? RB
  10. I thought Wisconsin was "Come smell our Dairy Air". RB
  11. Here's a few... It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities without your help. If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the OTHERS here for? The complete lack of evidence is the surest sign that the conspiracy is working. Living on Earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the Sun. The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the ability to reach it. There are three kinds of men: ones that learn by reading, ones that learn by observation and the rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves. RB
  12. In my opinion, one of the funniest shows ever on television. Here's some of my favorite lines from one of my favorite characters. "Normisms" "Can I draw you a beer, Norm?" "No, I know what they look like. Just pour me one." "How about a beer, Norm?" "Hey I'm high on life, Coach. Of course, beer is my life." "How's a beer sound, Norm?" "I dunno. I usually finish them before they get a word in." "What's up, Norm?" "Corners of my mouth, Coach." "What's shaking, Norm?" "All four cheeks and a couple of chins, Coach." "Beer, Normie?" "Uh, Coach, I dunno, I had one this week. Eh, why not, I'm still young." "Normie, Normie, could this be Vera?" "With a lot of expensive surgery, maybe." "What's up, Normie?" "The temperature under my collar, Coach." "What would you say to a nice beer, Normie?" "Going down?" "What's up Mr. Peterson?" "The warranty on my liver." "What's up, Norm?" "Everything that's supposed to be." "What's new, Normie?" "Terrorists, Sam. They've taken over my stomach. They're demanding beer." "What'll it be, Normie?" "Just the usual Coach. I'll have a froth of beer and a snorkel." "What would you say to a beer, Normie?" "Daddy wuvs you." "What'd you like, Normie?" "A reason to live. Gimme another beer." "What will you have, Norm?" "Well, I'm in a gambling mood, Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of that tap." "Oh, looks like beer, Norm." "Call me Mister Lucky." "What do you say, Norm?" "Any cheap, tawdry thing that'll get me a beer." "What do you say to a beer, Normie?" "Hiya, sailor. New in town?" "Whaddya say, Norm?" "Well, I never met a beer I didn't drink. And down it goes." "What's your pleasure, Mr. Peterson?" "Boxer shorts and loose shoes. But I'll settle for a beer." "Hey Norm, how's the world been treating you?" "Like a baby treats a diaper." "Would you like a beer, Mr. Peterson?" "No, I'd like a dead cat in a glass." "How's life treating you?" "It's not, Sammy, but you can!" "Can I pour you a draft, Mr. Peterson?" "A little early, isn't it Woody?" "For a beer?" "No, for stupid questions." "What's the story, Mr. Peterson?" "The Bobbsey twins go to the brewery. Let's cut to the happy ending." "Hey, Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you." "I know, and if she calls, I'm not here." "Beer, Norm?" "Have I gotten that predictable? Good." "What's going on, Mr. Peterson?" "A flashing sign in my gut that says, 'Insert beer here.'" "Hey, Mr. Peterson, Jack Frost nipping at your nose?" "Yep, now let's get Joe Beer nipping at my liver, huh?" "What's going on, Mr. Peterson?" "Another layer for the winter, Wood." "Whatcha up to Norm?" "My ideal weight if I were eleven feet tall." "How's it going, Mr. Peterson?" "Poor." "I'm sorry to hear that." "No, I mean pour." "How's life treating you, Norm?" "Like it caught me sleeping with its' wife." "Women. Can't live with 'em, pass the beer nuts." "What's going down, Normie?" "My butt cheeks on that bar stool." "How's life in the fast lane?" "Dunno, can't get on the on-ramp." "Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson." "Alright, but stop me at one.... make that one-thirty." "How's it going Mr. Peterson?" "It's a dog eat dog world, Woody, and I'm wearing Milk-Bone underwear!" "What's the story, Norm?" "Boy meets beer. Boy drinks beer. Boy meets another beer." "How about a beer, Norm?" "That's that amber sudsy stuff, right? I've heard good things about it!" "What's going on, Mr. Peterson?" "The question is what's going in Mr. Peterson. A beer please, Woody." "What's up, Normie?" "My nipples, it's freezing out there." RB
  13. You are not Superman. Recoilless rifles aren't. Suppressive fire won't. If it's stupid, but works, it's not stupid. Don't look conspicuous. It draws fire. Never draw fire. It makes everyone around you nervous. When in doubt, empty the magazine. Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you. Always keep in mind that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder. If your attack is going well, it's an ambush. If you can't remember . . . the claymore is probably pointed at you. All five second grenade fuses are three seconds. Try to look unimportant. The enemy may be low on ammo. If you are forward of your position the artillery will be short. The enemy diversion you're ignoring is the main attack. The easy way is always mined. The important things are always simple. The simple things are always hard. When you have secured an area, don't forget to tell the enemy. Incoming fire has the right of way. Teamwork is essential. It gives the enemy other people to shoot at. If the enemy is in range, so are you. Friendly fire isn't. Anything you can do can get you shot ... including doing nothing. Make it too tough for the enemy to get in ... and you can't get out. Tracers work both ways. The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire. Radios will fail as soon as you need something desperately. When both sides are convinced they are about to lose . . . they are both right. Professionals are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs. All weather close support doesn't work in bad weather. The bursting radius of a grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping range. The only terrain that is truly controlled is the terrain upon which you're standing. The law of the bayonet says the man with the bullet wins. The best tank killer is another tank. Therefore tanks are always fighting each other . . . and have no time to help the infantry. Precision bombing is normally accurate within plus/minus one mile. Cluster bombing from B-52s and C-130s is very, very accurate. They always hit the ground. Murphy was an 11 Bush Perfect plans aren't. The easy way generally gets you killed. The side with the fanciest uniforms losses. Armored vehicles are bullet magnets; a moving foxhole that attracts attention. If you are short of everything except enemy, you're in combat. No plan survives the first few seconds of combat. Ammo is cheap; your life isn't. If you can't see the enemy, they still may be able to see you. You can win without fighting, but it's a lot tougher to do. And the enemy may not cooperate. RB
  14. Hi John, I don't deal much with Intel, I like AMD's bang for the buck. The last server I built had a dual processor MB, 1GB RAM. The customer is happy. As far as cases go, This one should fit the bill. Case = $65, side window = $25. Has a 450W power supply and 2 case fans. RB
  15. Yeah, it takes a little carressing to get it running smooth. But once you get things ironed out, it is rock steady and stable. I haven't had a crash for over a year. Couldn't say that with Win98. RB
