    ireland, I just did a customize on that site, choose the $599 amd, clicked on all the add-ons I am intersted in, it came out to $736, and for a new computer with those add-ons that was a great price.

    I very much trust your judgment, always reading daily on AD your pretty high tech, you say you have dealt with this outfit for some time, so I have a couple of questions.

    How is thier tech support if any, do they speak english.
    How well do they respond to problems e.g. warranty service.
    And last, they do have an option for in home tech support,
    have you ever used it or heard of anybody that has., thanks.

    If I get the right answers comes the hardest part, will have to kiss some serious wife butt to release the credit card.

    Thanks ireland, sounds like a reputable company, will give it a try, next step for me will be to wife, honey anything I can do for you, or want anything done around the house. And your so right about vista, have not found any happy person that I know of personally that bought one.

    greensman, just pm'd you, sorry for my delay, was kinda buzy, and thanks again for your help.

    @Auslander ... yeah, not too bad for an old fart I don't think. At least I have one hell of a head of hair like everyone in her family .. and it's pretty cool because on the side of her family, hair turn to be compelety snow white.

    @FredBun ... you're absolutely right about putting a face to mere black words on a monitor. I know the faces of a few guys here and it makes writing more interesting.

    I also know what you mean about people being unwilling to post a pic; while it a different for the kids I guess, I seriously doubt that any of you guys will be lurking around my building tomorrow saying "Want a lollipop little boy" LOL!

    There is one thing I get a kick from: those who know that I post here always ask things like "aren't you afraid that people will recognize you?" or "aren't you afraid that people are going to lie to you about their age or what they look like?" ...like this is some sort of sex or or matchmaking site! I guess they see all those commercials about about keeping safe on the internet that they think they're all sexual somehow.

    gerry1, lol, your absolutly right on all counts, as far as the kids, when it comes to places like youtube or myspace I see my kids on it once in a while it looks like every kids picture in America is on there.

    As far as myself, its to each is own, me, I dont know how to post pic's yet on AD but with some help from greensman I might learn, I would'nt care if my pic was on here or my address, I mean if I'm not on the 10 most wanted fbi list what the hell do I care, if someone wanted to contact, visit me or has a beef with me I'll gladly give it to them, to damn old to worry about simple things anymore.

    I also checked out the thread greensman gave on on peoples pic's, it was pretty cool, to bad it had to be closed, and yes, I think its much more satisfying when you got a face in your mind to talk to, maybe somebody ought to start another pic thread.

    Never could get enough tater soup. A few spices, with pepper, and I could eat a big bowl anytime.

    That chili and spaghetti is good. I fix it separate though. Fix my favorite chili mix and then ladle over the spaghetti. That way the spaghetti doesn't add a yeast flavor to the chili. Plus, if you're lucky enough, you can store the leftover chili. Since I have a huge chili pot, I usually have some. Chili that's been allowed to age overnight is better than fresh cooked. All the spices and flavors have a chance to blend. At least that's my take. As someone said, there's all kinds of ways. ;)

    Spaghetti is good, for the most part.

    But, anyway, my complaints for today:

    1. I'm sore, its my own fault though, I don't exercise a whole lot and I recently started, three days ago, doing daily rounds of push-ups (w. your knuckles, not the palms of your hand, that way it targets your chest better) and bicycle-style situps for 10-15 minutes a each, so I am way sore. :p I've also been running daily for 30 minutes but my legs aren't bad.

    2. I went to sign up for the Kung Fu club (I got my mom over there!) and found out I have to sign up on a year contract. Sure, I would do it for a year (I plan on doing it for a lot longer) but my mom freaked out because she thought I would "Loose Interest" and quit going even though I would have to pay for it (@$85/mo) for a year.

    However, I kind of talked to her about it and I am going to a class on Monday at which I am going to actually participate in, just to get a small idea of what its like. However, I already made friends with a guy over there so I don't think it would be that bad to do even if my two best friends don't join the Club for while.

    With how fast I made friends over there I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to keep it going. I really want to do it and if you have a few friendly people in there with you it wouldn't be hard to stay motivated in my opinion. :)

    Peace

    Early one morning, a mother went in to wake up her son. "Wake up, son. It's time to go to school!"
    "But why, Mom? I don't want to go."
    "Give me two reasons why you don't want to go."
    "Well, the kids hate me for one, and the teachers hate me, too!"
    "Oh, that's no reason not to go to school. Come on now and get ready."
    "Give me two reasons why I should go to school."
    "Well, for one, you're 52-years-old. And for another, you're the Principal!"


    One evening, two girlfriends and I went to a nightclub, only to find the place packed with young people. At 40, we felt old, but before we could make a dignified exit, a tall, handsome man approached us.
    "Perhaps we were being a little hasty in leaving," I thought.
    Then with a big smile, the man extended his hand to one of my friends and said, "Hello. Remember me? You taught me in third grade."


    A teacher noticed that a little boy at the back of the class was squirming around, scratching his crotch and not paying attention. She went back to find out what was going on. He was quite embarrassed and whispered that he had just recently been circumcised and he was quite itchy. The teacher told him to go down to the principal's office. He was to phone his mother and ask her what he should do about it. He did it and returned to his class.
    Suddenly, there was a commotion at the back of the room. She went back to investigate only to find him sitting at his desk with his penis hanging out. "I thought I told you to call your mom." she screamed.
    "I did," he said, "And she told me that if I could stick it out till noon, she'd come and pick me up from school."

    REMEMBER THIS IS A JOKE


    Here is a little test that will help you decide.

    The answer can be found by posing the following question:

    You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?


    Democrat's Answer:

    Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!

    Does the man look poor? Or oppressed?

    Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?

    Could we run away?

    What does my wife think?

    What about the kids?

    Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?

    What does the law say about this situation?

    Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?

    Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?

    Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?

    Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?

    If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?

    Should I call 911?

    Why is this street so deserted?

    We need to raise taxes, have paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.

    This is all so confusing!

    I need to debate this with some friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus.



    Republican's Answer:

    BANG!


    Redneck's Answer:

    BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click..... (Sounds of reloading) BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG ! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click

    Redneck Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?"

    Redneck Son: "Can I shoot the next one!"

    Redneck Wife: "You ain't takin' that to the Taxidermist!"

    The Cajun Redneck's wife would be taking it home for cooking. It would ultimately have tasted like what they are: CHICKEN.

    @Billyboy ... you wrote


    So I look like I'm in my 30's eh? You're such a good lad and the most astute observer in AD's membership!! (You're about to ask for a favor ... out with it meboy LOL!)

    I don't have any recent pics (maybe at the office, I don't know). Initially, I thought it was just a couple of years old but it can't be; I recognized the backgroud after looking at it for a bit; I think its about 5 or 6 years old but aside from a couple more wrinkles, I more or less look the same. My hair is fairly long there; I use to perform more in those days (just simple chorale accompaniment actually)and I thought the long hair looked cool with a tux. So too, about one monthly, during the night as I slept, I was honored by an apparition of the mighty greek god "Hirsute" who would darken the temples of his aging but faithful servant but those apparitions stopped a couple of years ago. It is so conventient not to need relationships and/or significant others; I need only look in the mirror to appreciate my history of a loving and endless relationship which so many others crave LOL!

    @Ireland ... I love what you did with my pic; I've never seen such an accurate rendering of my French schnoz LOL!

    Ireland ... I'm sure you remember the 16 and 2/3 rpm turntables and records? Such records were rare when I was a kid but they were still around.

    When your sad, it's best to look at people who's worst than you. When your happy it's best to see someone who's happier than you.
