this one you're on your own!:lol: (maybe the problem starts with your assumption that they are indeed part of "our" species?!? [runs off and hides])

I'll check my Gary Larson "Far Side" collection and get back to you!

I'm sure the answer is in there somewhere.

I always figured if we understood females life would have no meaning.

Unlike Stan, I have never enjoyed ONE GOOD GAME of golf...it was more like one good stroke followed by four atrocious strokes. LOL

That is exactly how I play the game of golf.

I would like to meet the guy who said golf is a relaxing game. Sometimes it can be more frustrating then anything I can think of.

Here is a question.....

Why do people come on forums to ask opinions on a product that they have allready decided to purchase then when others give that product a negative review, they defend it/go ahead and buy it anyway????

I recently heard a great Mark Twain quote along these lines....

I believe it is because in reality the "pant" is in fact the two pant legs being referenced, shortened to pants.

So if a guy has only one leg, would he be "Putting on his pant", instead of "Putting on his pants". That I'm not sure about.

Life's little lesson


When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.

Somehow, I always had something else to take care of first, the truck, the car, playing golf,wood working - always something more important to me.

Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors.

I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush.

I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."

The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always

have a limp.



Moral to this story: Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right, and the other is the husband.

Hey Mack,
If it helps, you can click on a 'main menu' button or just replace (http://www.theeldergeek.com/change_text_on_xp_start_button.htm) that with something that is less confusing for you :)

[quote]If it helps, you can click on a 'main menu' button or just replace (http://www.theeldergeek.com/change_text_on_xp_start_button.htm) that with something that is less confusing for you Hi Wayne; from Nobleton? My question was more of a tongue in cheek question than anything else, but thanks for your attempt to answer. I don't profess to know much about computers, and right now I can't see anything that resembles a 'main menu' button. It's really not that much of a nuisance to clik on START rather than main menu.
Further to my comment with respect to not knowing much about computers, I recently cliked on F10 to restore or whatever and lost everything, files, pics, addresses, favourites, GOD only knows what else.
Nice talking with you again, Wayne. I hope you think I am nice.

Thank you Mack.

It's quite simple. The meaning of life is 42. Divide that by the square root of monkey butt, subtract the value of one leg (consult your insurance policy for this value), and multiply by the tangent of one average sized pickle.
Try it but if you don't get 13.768 then it must be do to the difference in our insurance policies.

I've got a non-WW Q:

How do I get two songs to always play sequentially when I'm in random selection mode in Windows Media Player (VER 11).

For example, the prelude song to Steve Miller's Jet Airliner, or, Queen's "We will rock you" and "We are the Champions" or Jackson Brown's "The Load-Out" and "Stay", all don't sound right without being played together.

I've tried looking everywhere in the software, and find anything to solve this.

I'm not familiar with any plug-ins that would "perma-link" the tracks, and I have also looked since I too have a number of double tracks that are meant to play together. I'd pretty much given up, but if you are really serious about it, then failing a perma-link plug in what you would need to do is get some audio editing software that would allow you to merge the two files into one. Ask around to any musician friends you have if they have any digital editing software, like pro tools or something like that.

hey, what do you know, my google-fu has improved since the last time I searched for this. Apparently what we're looking for is called an "mp3 joiner" and you can download a number of freeware versions from sites like this (http://www.dailymp3.com/splitter.html). I don't have time to try it now, so do me a favour and let me know which one you try and how well it works for you, eh?

All my music files on my PC are WMA files and I don't want to convert them. I looked around last nite but it was too time consuming to figure out which one to use and also whether it was potentially software that is going to just cause' "digestive" issues on my PC. Just thought someone would know a quick answer on this.
