I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

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

Google voice does a decent job of transcribing my voicemail messages, but my sister might as well be speaking heavily Spanish-accented English, because the miss rates are similar. Never anything usable from her, and I would honestly say she has no accent that I don't have.

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

or maybe you liked their page?

I think that's it. But I don't see a way to unlike it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Go to their page and look in the upper right area of the page, I think it's on a drop down menu.

Help. I'm having Project 2007 issues.

I want to highlight some rows (maybe even bars if I get wacky), but when I select them, make all the choices in the "Format Text" menu box, I get all or nothing. If I don't select which areas, then, duh, the whole thing becomes yellow polka dots with red writing.

But I only want to do that to a selected group of tasks, and when I select "Highlighted cells" it doesn't change anything. What I am trying to do, basically is on the gantt chart distinguish really easily which team is responsible for what.

It's hardly likely to be pretty, but on the offchance it stops people replying asking where "their bit" was (pretty much wherever you see your name listed in the resource column)?

HAH. Good luck with that. I ended up having to go into each bar by hand and changing the color. I could not find a way to assign different colors by resources.

I had misread the options: FormatFont does it, not FormatText Styles. I don't need most of those, understand all of them, and I can't workout what "highlighted" refers to.

Anyone want to walk me through trying to connect the work PC laptop with my Apple wireless network. It has worked before and I can get it to show me it is connected, but cannot actually get it to connect to the internet.

Things I can see:

Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility - shows good signal from the wireless. Shows packets being sent but not received.

Wireless Network Connection Status - will only show connected if I manually type in a IP address, Subnet Mask, and Preferred DNS server (these are not things I had to do when I was able to connected on this network before). NOT sure it matters or not, but it is a new router from when I connected before.
