As long as my laptop and my desktop don't go pfft at the same time as Dropbox, Onecloud, and Google Drive, I'm fine.

The other day, I was driving on a narrow street in an older area and had to pull over to give the car going the other way room. My mom said something about the narrow street, and I commented that it was probably wide enough when it was built for the horses.

IIRC, mine was Time Warner, and it was just as bad! I don't think gmail existed yet. That's probably when I switched to yahoo, and it was better than TW.

The last time I used an ISP email, it surely didn't have a spam filter. Or, if it did, it filtered everything but the spam.

Nah, I'm still an ass under my real name.

That doesn't mean they won't try it. :-P

Zinc really works. If I take it, I get over my cold in 7-14 days. If I don't, it takes a whole week or two.

I've gotten the Microsoft help scam. My mom got the IRS scam. I also get a bunch of unknown calls (they call, I don't answer, they hang up without saying anything). Any or all of those might have been scams.

But, do they use trans-fat?

You must be using a different BMI calculator. At 6' 1", it said my 180 pounds was normal. It does break down for people who actually exercise, as it doesn't tell the difference between 200 pounds of muscle and 200 pounds of flab.

And don't forget windmills, which everyone knows is the biggest mass murderer of birds.

And it's not just microorganisms. I'm reasonably sure Pekinese and French poodles weren't around a couple million years ago.

And it's not that much different from IT. Either way, you're dealing with other people's shit.

Unless they already have a preference for Google. Or if Bing is so bad it drives people away in droves.

Meh! The Europeans are wimps! They complain about the heat when the temp hits 30. We Americans don't gripe until it hits mid 80s.
