Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Brenda, I'm not sure what your network setup is.

Do you have a wireless router? Is it set up to be a DHCP server?

I believe the most common home network scenario (or at least mine) is for your ISP to give you a single IP address (though their DHCP server) and then you set up your router to provide multiple IP addresses on your interior network by having your router be a DHCP server too.

Just holding a Nano is... damn. It's the perfect electronic device (at least aesthetically).

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

So, after a few weeks of wrangling with it, setting up my small spare hard drive as the master, installing XP again on that drive, downloading the (I thought) appropriate virus removal tool, and other fun shenannigans, I have finally looked at the old main bad drive and run the fixtool on it.

It says there is no W32.sasser.worm on my computer. Either drive. My problem is not a sasser worm, though all my online research says it is.

I'm beginning to think my drive is utterly unrecoverable. I tried just fixing the installation, but that didn't work. Now I'm reinstalling.

Anyone know of some new fucking virus thing that screws up lsass.exe, but is not actually the sasser worm?

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

Everyone knows I can't code for shit. Well, everyone who would care to think about my coding abilities, anyway.

I'm trying to just put together a small little thing on my book, and for some reason, I have three columns showing up when I just want the text to fall in blocks under each other.

Also, does anyone know why there's an enormous space between the apostrophe and the "s"? Should I try a different font?

Appreciate anyone with the time and patience.

Allyson, I don't see 3 columns.

You've got a superscript 1 instead of an apostrophe here:

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's what I see too, though the second apostrophe is fine.

Your tag here.

Allyson, I don't see three columns. In Firefox, everything looks cool. In IE, the header and footer aren't centered. The font appears to be standard Arial and I don't see anything odd about apostrophe-esses.

Other comments: I might drop the commas setting off "in her mid twenties" and after "message boards". Also, I think you mean "pay allegience"? Otherwise it looks great to me.

ETA, I'm in Firefox. Off to check IE.

ETA2: In IE, the header and footer are left-justified. Everything else the same, including the superscript "1"

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I don't see the three cols, either. Just the superscript 1. Other than that, the apostrophes look fine.

I can see a few things in the source that could be switched to CSS to make your life/updating easier.

If you'd like, once you've got it written up and looking the way you like, you can e me the files (momhlet at gmail), and I can clean them up for you. Wouldn't take more than a jiffy, and your content is so much more interesting than the content I do that with for a living.
