  1. Ok this morning it was coffee, now I have coke all over my crt.
  2. Didn't know my avatar was gone til now. Got it back so now you should recognize who I am ...........was............... It's those fricken Marines. Spend a year with'em and see what happens. I am....was Sulla, now because of some story I told while thoroughly pickeled and now I'm Chopper. Don't remember what I said but there it is.
  3. Good mornin. Beautious so far. Geez. Day 3 without the CBC Talking Heads (on strike). As much as I like the BBC (UK) and ABC (Aust,) substituting, I miss the home team.
  4. coffee sprayed everywhere
  5. I had 2 installs in 2 separate folders on my E Drive. During installation of each make real sure the install is pointed at the appropriate folder.
  6. Beware all. When uninstalling PF, FB or any combo it will uninstall everything.. Not my idea, but that's what it does.
  7. Just saw the "pie" on the news a few days ago. Taxes = 39%.
  8. Good morning. Shaping up to be a very nice day.
  9. Not mine. I don't own any.
  10. Put peanut butter on it. It counters the effect. To enhance the effect add jam or honey. For near complete immunity from the ill effects of bread, I've found peanut butter, banana, bacon and honey combo to be the best.
  11. Ya that was one cool series. Bummed out when it went off-air. It was just starting to get really good.
  12. Once you've reached the rank of Brigadier you're well inside political territory. Too many pieces missing from this puzzle to conclude anything.
  13. G'mornin. T-storms on the way.
  14. Good morn. Heading up north shortly. Just an overnighter.
  15. "Politically Correct" is a term coined by Conservatives to excuse the fact that they can't stand anything that doesn't fit their version of the way God (remember Him?) meant things to be!
  16. Protesting military activities is one thing, but a funeral is quite another. I figure that when it's time for such folks to enter The Great Unknown they'll be in for one hell of a suprise.
  17. Afternoon all. Hot and sticky it is.
  18. A little more on Smokey. .................................................. ............................... Although his comrades called him "a soldier's soldier," Smith's relationship with the army was stormy. He built a reputation as an independent-minded man suspicious of authorities. They made him a corporal nine times and busted him back to private nine times. That was his rank when he was awarded his VC, the only Canadian private to win the medal in the Second World War. Smith heard he'd won the Victoria Cross - the Commonwealth's highest, decoration for heroism - about seven weeks after the fight. His reputation as a party animal preceded him. Military police were sent to take him to the ceremony with King George VI in London. "They picked me up in Naples or somewhere and they put me in jail," Smith recalled with his trademark grin. "'Don't let him loose in this town.' I liked to party. I'd have a big goddamn party and they'd say: 'Where is he now? Oh, he's drunk downtown."' After the war, Smith worked in civilian life a couple of years before he rejoined the army to fight in Korea. "After I got in the army, they wouldn't let me go. They said: 'You got a VC, you're not allowed to fight any more.' "I said: 'Why didn't you tell me before I rejoined?"'
