That was absolutely HORRIBLE, and yet I found myself laughing my ass off. Thank you....

Bah, Timeline, Shmimeline. Q promised he'd come back for me when I asked!

Speak for yourself. I plan to live forever.

Bingo. No matter WHAT you do, you have almost zero chance of success.

Any programmer who, in this day and age, writes code as you describe, is DOING IT ON PURPOSE to extend their "worth" to the company, by being obtuse.

I feel your pain, but unless you are really close friends with this person, or can BECOME very close friends, I think you're SOL.

So actually, now that I just thought of it, you could become close friends with the dinosaur, and THEN, perhaps, guide him/her?
Good luck my friend...

Why is it Always that I have no mod points when I need them? Very nice Sir!

Actually, in my personal experience, virtualbox sucks ass running inside win 7 64 pro.
I purchased parallels and am MUCH happier with it. Not that parallels is perfect either, but it sure as hell is more stable.

virtualbox crashed guests regularly and the host on occasion.

Just my 2 cents...

The only people who misinterpreted that were the dolts who do NOT leave when are clearly told to, and the ones who go out and buy 5 dozen eggs, 4 gallons of milk, and 27 loaves of bread when they ARE told to. I got you just fine.

Someone mod this up. Shouldn't have posted anon my friend!

He's using standard bulbs for the heat AND light. Will have to use the much more expensive, MUCH more fragile brooder/heat lamps from now on. Or go stock up!

FYI, Roundup is a herbicide. It kills plants, not bugs.
Also, I think the last time this came up, itwas said that it isn't actually the roundup chemical that gets into the food, it's one of the carrier chemicals that persists.
Or am I remembering wrong?

Just as a reminder, as another poster said, whatever brand you do buy, be sure you can easily get replacement parts or units in your target ports.

God Damnit. LNNW = LYNW Frickin Gin...

Sorry for bringing fiction into Real Life, but wouldn't the good of ALL humanity outweigh the good of the individual human? Seriously. Asimov made a good play for a zero'th law. ( Yeah, bah, I'm too lazy to go look up how he wrote it. Bite me. ) Is this TRULY what we want? Everyone choosing what is best for THEIR children, at the cost of what is best for humanity? Travolta, you need to build an organization, QUICKLY, to make sure that custom babies are blown to bits, preferably with LNNW ( no more ball bearings!), just to be sure. You know? Olivaw to the Rescue!!! Olivaw for President!!! (For the humour impaired, get a clue. )
