Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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

Yep.

Cool.

Our wings are not tired

I'll have to look at the new Macs when I'm not on my Treo.

On the camera side I've go a Canon SD500 and I adore it. Amazing 7.1 megapixel phots and it's tiny. The new SD550 has a larger 2.5" screen. It works like a charm with iPhoto as well.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

iTunes 6.0.2 includes stability and performance improvements over iTunes 6.0.1.

Ah. Now I can update and see if it solves that annoying shuffle problem.

All is well that ends in pizza.

2 processors in every Macbook pro.

Guh.

Not only that, but they are both on one chip, to faster interact with each other.

Random question: Why is Ebay telling me (not from a spam email or anything, just when I go to the site) that in order to change my email address, i have to give them a credit card to have on file? I don't want to do that! I rarely use Ebay, and when I do, I use paypal. I don't think they should need my credit card info! I just want to change emails...because the current one will likely be going away. (I'm trying to change to a yahoo account, so maybe that's the issue, but geez--I've had THAT for 7 years, the ones that aren't free come with my internet and that's changed over the years!)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Huh. I just changed my e-mail address at eBay, and they didn't ask me for a cc number. I don't have one listed in my account, either.

The only thing I can think of is that I've never sold anything there, so they've never had to bill me any fees. It may be worth asking them what's the deal.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

I can't think how to phrase this question to google an answer. Suggestions for that (or actual answers) would be fervently appreciated.

I have a large data file and have done calculations with a small number of the records (the calculations are so unwieldy I can only have about forty records in the calculation file).

I can copy the next 40 records in to the calculation file and save as file 2, but doing that thirty times by hand seems excessive. Is there a way to automate this? I do have experience programming in VBA.

Thanks for any and all help!

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

this sounds like the job of an excel macro.

And I could do it that way if it was within a workbook, but I don't know what commands to use to work with multiple workbooks.
