We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've had that happen, Allyson, but I decided it was some spammer using my address as their fake return address. I forwarded it to yahoo (it's a yahoo account), and nothing happened.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Thanks, I got a response from my service provider and they basically said, 'no worries, it's a pain in the ass and makes everyone sad."

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Can anyone tell me why I can't view PDFs or more than half of the quicktime movies I run across in either Mozilla Firefox or IE 6 and how to fix it?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Redownload the latest Adobe Reader and make sure it installs the latest plugins, maybe.

I did recently download the latest reader. I thought it started some time after that, but maybe not. Thanks, Daniel. I'll try that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So...due to some random circumstances, I have been checking my hotmail account recently. What a piece of shit hotmail is.

A couple of questions:

1) if you identify a sender as "not junk" why doesn't it remember it?

2) why is hotmail so bad?

As far as I can tell, Hotmail is not actually meant to be used.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just learnt that there are very few Hotmail programmers. That might explain some stuff.

OK, someone help me out: You recommended here as a good place to buy memory. But I look there, and am v. confused. Which one do I buy? (Beyond the "do I get the 256 or 512?" choice). I have a 1Ghz 12" powerbook. And that's all I know, off the top of my head. Then I get confused.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

If my goal for my home computer is being able to sit on the sofa and be on line, and I am a Mac only girl, will this be sufficient:

Would it be less sufficient if I wanted to install airport so I could use the campus wireless network?
