I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords.

I, for one, WELCOME our new invertebrate overlords.

Go Pods!

Wabbit Season!

Duck Season!

COWBOY NEAL season!

There's always one guy blowing the curve!

I prefer the one where Cowboy Neal reads the book to me, with accompanying finger puppet theater.

Of course it's more secure! The only way in left is the door!

Of course it's more secure! I also hear that DEATH is a great way to lose weight. Die, and the pounds just melt away!

Can we please have a serious suggestion other than changing your OS? This is like saying "That them thar wood house is no good. Better replace it all with brick."

ALL OF THE ABOVE!

A couple of things to keep in mind about bathrooms in Texas: 1) there's moisture there, both steam from showers/baths and from direct water sources - and Texas is in a deep drought 2) the fan housing has to go outside 3) lots and lots of tile makes ants easier to spot

I expect Cowboy Neil to deliver the mail on Saturday.

Obviously the greatest sport never played. Javelin Catching!

Damn, where's my Cowboy Neil option? I'm sure seeing him vampire hunt would be hilarious!

I have had a Windows 6 phone and a Windows 7 phone. Windows 6 was basically a short screen version of Windows XP. One reason I had for sticking with Windows phones was their interoperability with their other products (such as MSSQL, IIS, Exchange, etc) and the other products previous versions. However, Windows 7 phones won't interact properly with certain older email servers at least without a patch to the phone.

And in my case, AT&T won't roll that patch out. In theory, this means I might have a beef with AT&T but I'd think that Microsoft would put better compatibility software from the beginning.

Next time, I'll probably go with an iPhone since I already know they work and it'll be easier on trying to track down accessories.

Here's the thing - I could spend another 6 hours troubleshooting the new 3rd party driver, or finding it, only to be in the same spot I'm at now. Or I could nip out to the local retailer, buy a card, slap it in, download and install drivers for it, and I know that'll work. The question is how much money is my time worth? Hence why the title of the post is 'Sometimes Yes You Do'.

Hence why 'Sometimes'

I have a MB with a built in RealTek sound 'card'. I also run Windows XP 64, cause I'm crazy. The RealTek system for XP 64 is notoriously unstable. When I played Champions Online, the game would disable the sound because it could and would crash the program. Borderlands took it the other route - you can run the program, but you will always crash when you hit level 10, due to the special level 'ding' sound for level 10. Solution? Get a sound card, or a new OS.
