I'm aware of that, Mrs. M. I was joking around about turning off the virus, not the virus protection.
You missed Christine's joke?quote:Originally posted by Serenity:
Falcon, on my virus protector, I right click on the icon in the tray and there is an option to turn it off.
Yep, I did!!
Did you hear about the cookie monster? Some parents were complaining about him setting a bad example for kids, so now he has to sing about cookies being a sometimes food.
No. I hadn't heard that.quote:Originally posted by Falcon Gal:

Santa Claus probably sets an even worse example for the kids when it comes to diet. Do you think he'll be next?
Oh good grief, Falcon! When will parent start taking responsibilty for their children?!
Falcon, who know!!
Alexis knows that all these things are not so, but pretend!
Oh rick, as to the Me page 100% feedback...I have a lot that never leave any feedback as is always the case on eBay so this makes the ones sold way over 1100. That is what it means.
As far as we can tell, a U.S. president and his squeeze don't have to pay one thin Roosevelt dime during their four to eight years at the White House. Add up all the presidential perks and subtract the wars, natural catastrophes, and economic disasters, and it seems like a pretty sweet gig.
Title 3 of the U.S. Code is what governs the cash at the president's disposal. Here's the basic package: For starters, he makes a salary of $400,000 a year, plus a $50,000 expense account to defray costs relating to the "discharge of his official duties." Traveling expenses: $100,000 per year. Entertainment: $19,000. As for taking up residence in the White House (including use of its bowling alley and movie theater), trips on Air Force 1, meals, and vacations at Camp David...all are comped.
By law, the prez is also entitled to "use of the furniture and other effects belonging to the United States and kept in the Executive Residence at the White House." Mr. Lucky Ducky is also appropriated up to $1 million each fiscal year to spend at his discretion for "unanticipated needs" related to the national interest. Then of course there are the gifts. Finally, when his term of office is up, he is entitled to an annual pension of $157,000 per year, plus office space, administrative help, and Secret Service protection.
So get your resumes ready -- 2008 is just around the corner.
Boy, was I ever underpaid when I worked!!

This means that two PCs (or bits of equipment) have the same IP address (effectively their network addresses) so the network doesn't always know where to send things.quote:WINDOWS SYSTEM_ERROR
There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network.
[I'm typing this slowly so that the COOKIE MONSTER might understand...]
COOKIES HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH NETWORK ADDRESSES!
Turning the PC off and on solved the problem - deleting the cookies did nothing (apart from meaning that you have to re-log onto websites etc). Please, please don't listen to the cookie-deleting advice - it's wrong, Wrong, WRONG, !

Ok,r2. But, I have turned it off and on several times and it comes back. Could it mean someone is using my wireless signal?

The idea of someone using your wireless signal is really scary.
I dump my cookies and defragment every so often because I heard that it helps your computer run better. The way I figure it, a happy computer is a well-behaved computer and it'll be less likely to do scary electronic things if it's content, so I placate it by dumping cookies, defragmenting, and keeping stuff out of the keyboard by covering the thing.

Nor carry a driver’s license or passport, nor going thru customs, and no carry-on limit (he can have as many Secret Service Agents as space allows). And, since he’s his own no-fly-zone, invite him (her?) to your next wedding to avoid flyovers by the Paparazzi (something Barbra Streisand couldn’t buy). One of, if not THE, best paying jobs in the world – even better than Bill Gates gets paid.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

Yes, tis true! And, one heck of a retirement plan!
<loaded question> What are your views on parents spanking their children?quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

I follow what the Bible teaches. Yes, I do spank!
But, I will say, Alexis is such a well behaved child that I have yet to find it necessary!

I think Hilary Clinton is the only U.S. senator that has had Secret Service agents, that wasn’t running for President (which some will say she is), or who’s life hasn’t been threatened. At least, as the wife of a former President, she’s supposed to have them, while the former wife of the President isn’t.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

I bet there’s been more then once you’d like to apply your palms to my little bottom.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With all this spanking talk, I’m getting aroused!
Can I use that line on the gals the next time I go to church?quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

Will that be this Sunday?
I found another mistake on my ME page! And, I am not telling! 
quote:At least, as the wife of a former President, she’s supposed to have them, while the former wife of the President isn’t.
This would mean a divorce or death?
Armed with my new pickup line, and based on the quality, and quantity, of the collective female congregational bottoms, why wait till Sunday? There’s Mass, and there are those that attend on Saturday - there’s all kind of different ecclesiastical opportunities (hope you don’t view them as cults). Yes, I think I’ll fit right in – I’ll definitely have my priorities, or something, straight.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

You sound like you’re bragging about finding your own mistakes. No big deal – I find your mistakes all the time.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

Would this mean a divorce or death of who (or is it, "whom"?)?quote:Originally posted by Serenity:quote:At least, as the wife of a former President, she’s supposed to have them, while the former wife of the President isn’t.

Glad you went back and added that disclaimer. Wouldn't want to have to turn you in - "yet".quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

So, if you don’t spank Alexis, then who “do” you spank? If it was your own children (that would be a “did” not a “do”) – well, that’s no big deal. Everyone did it in the 60’s and 70’s.
Poor barskin. I wonder what they are going to think when they come back and look at their thread.
Question 1: The President...she gets no secret
service.
Question 2: I spanked my children. But, if Alexis needed it, I would spank her. I would never hurt her, however. A swat on the behind, I think. Sorry if I offend anyone.
I am the head of children's Ministery at Church. I see kids that can't sit still, cannot take direction, and so on. My cat takes better directions! It really, really concerns me.

Are you saying Hilary gets no S.S. (sorry for the pun – sort of) agents? My apologies for being dense on this, but I’ve lost track of this track. Perhaps if you could restate the question as if starting from scratch.quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

That must be one hell of a great cat – a dog, yes. But a cat?quote:Originally posted by Serenity:

It shouldn’t. Every older generation thinks the younger generation is headed for the crapper. Just look how the hippies turned out (well, perhaps I could come up with a better example).quote:Originally posted by Serenity:
