We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am trying to cancel an MSN dialup subscription for my mother. I got a man on the line saying very quickly "We are updating our system, could you call back in 24 hours" and hung up. Do you think he was playing me. I have to get this cancelled!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

What happens if you put it all back to the way it was, with your old Hard Drive.

Tried that. Same result.

Inflows are at the top in a bunch of rows, then outflows beneath them.

The Quicken export just gave me the raw numbers, so I've been manually converting the rows where I need math (budget vs actual, totals etc) into formulas.

It's not such a huge spreadsheet that I couldn't just re-enter these numbers, but if there's a way to have Excel do it in one step that would be nifty.

Yes. If you call back demand to speak with a supervisor right away.

Nevermind on the Excel thing. I can work with the numbers the way they are.

That sounds like a RAM thing Vonnie. When I've seen the beeping without posting, that's what it is more often than not.

I really hope so, Gud. Anything but a motherboard problem. I've only had this machine for 3 1/2 years and have already upgraded the power supply and the video card. I don't wanna have to switch out the rest of the stuff as well.

All is well that ends in pizza.

It's the same axe Abraham Lincoln used. It's only had three new heads and six new handles.

That's some seriously bad luck. I don't think I've ever had a video card fail. I've had a couple of power supplies fail, but that was before I started making sure I bought good ones.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I've actually had two video cards fail, but this is a high end HDMI-enabled Media Center. The replacement card this time has its OWN fan, because its intended for game and video-production use.
