Thanks, DX. I'll make those changes on my machines ASAP.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

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

Anyone having bad slowdowns with Firefox 2.0.0.1 under Windows (XP in my case)?
Totally. I really really regret upgrading. I keep having to crash the process because I can't do *anything* if I use FF as heavily as I normally do. Is there an easy way to downgrade?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How to setup and manage multiple Firefox profiles for the same user: [link]
With Buffy examples!
If you share a computer with family members or roommates, or if you simply browse for different reasons - like work, blogging, school research, or play - you may want to use different Firefox settings each time you sit down to surf. Luckily, the Firefox profile manager can manage multiple browsing personalities for a single user on the same desktop.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Sounds odd enough to maybe be a virus, OTOH, it's almost never actually a virus. Sort of like the first diagnosis on House.
That's not very reassuring.

Coding and Sleeping
It's probably worth it to do a virus scan like with (http://housecall.trendmicro.com/) if you don't have a scanner. When that doesn't turn out to be the problem, I'd probably try to reinstall Excel.

Okay, late last night, our TV crapped out completely. With a pop/fizzle, something inside the box blew and the TV is no more.
We want to go buy a new one today.
I've been looking at prices online, and Sears is having some pretty good sales today, and I checked Fry's because they're sometimes cheaper than anywhere else, but not on TVs. Best Buy and Circuit City have all always seemed a little expensive to me.
Can anybody give good advice on where to get the best price on a 30-32 inch flatscreen? Do the websites not give truly representative prices, do I need to hit each store in person to find the best price, and then go back to the place with the best price?

I know that being sans teevee for a few weeks might not be an option, but if you wait until President's Day weekend, there will likely be sales.

I can't wait that long.
I should wait that long.
DAMN YOU, STUPID TV! Why couldn't you have waited just a couple weeks more to crap out??????

Actually Best Buy has been running some decent deals with the lead up to the Superbowl. Also, you should really go into some stores and look at the picture on the TV's you are considering. They can vary pretty widely.

Oh yeah, we're about to head out and do in-store shopping. I'd just been looking at prices online to see if I can maybe winnow down the number of stores we hit. But I'll add Best Buy to the list.
