If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I wonder if the old fdisk /mbr works on NTFS? Anyone? Bueller?

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

Did your issue clear up, LeN? I have no help to offer, sadly.

Thanks for asking. It did, actually. I ended up redoing the Windows default programs and I think that cleared everything up.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm an idiot -- I was pressing the wrong two buttons to reset. (It's Menu/Select, not Menu/Play.) D'oh! Correctly reseting seems to have done the trick.

Still, the battery is now telling me it's completely drained, which is absurd since I'd only used it for about 45 minutes since its last full recharge. I have a feeling it may need replacing.

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

I need some itunes/ipod assistance, please. This has to do with synching.

Since I've had my ipod, I have not synch it with my computer. I've been manually putting music on my ipod. This worked well enough (especially when my main computer was that shitty Microsoft ME), but now I'd like to synch.

My computer's library is probably outdated from my ipod's. What should I do in terms of making sure the ipod and the computer have the same music?

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

LeN, when I made that decision I backed up the music directory for iTunes, then deleted it all from inside the app. I'm assuming your iPod can be used as a HD, right? Then I copied over all the music files from the iPod, and imported them into iTunes.

Then I set the iPod to synch automatically. Worked like a charm.

MG, have you checked Craigslist? [link]

Lots of people are giving away monitors after christmas around here, maybe there, too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have a new Razr phone. When people call, it doesn't ring. (and BTW, Tom, I am sorry I missed your call yesterday). If I set it for vibrate, it makes a vibrating sound, but it won't ring. There is no indication that it is in silent mode. Any idea what might be wrong, other than just me getting a bum phone?

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

What happens when you set it to vibrate and ring? It shouldn't ring on vibrate. Just vibe and ring, or vibe then ring.

No ring.
