  1. I grew up hearing "goat roper" as a derogatory term or insult used to call a cowboy/cowgirl whether a Rexall or the guinine article.It's not quite as much of an insult to a cowgirl because it is a rodeo event for them.I think it first was to say "you don't have the skill to rope a steer but maybe you can rope a goat" . When I was younger (still in JR.High) I was called "hippie" because of my "long Hair" At that time the school made you have it cut above the collar of a dress shirt.& tapered in the back no block cuts.So My hair was hardly hippie legnth.But a group of "goat ropers" followed me on the way home from school & threatened to cut my hair with their pocket knives.4 of them to 1 of me.Real brave I drew my pocket knife & said if the tried I would cut more than hair.They decided not to try.I was a tuff little hippie wasn't I.Probably would have got killed trying to stop 4.& yes most boys carried pocket knives to school then. I think of myself as more of a "long haired country boy" but these days I actually keep it fairley short.
  2. Of course there are Alaskans in all the categories I bet .But these are the native Alaskan tribes.& I don't think this is all of them. Aleut (in their own language they refer to themselves as Unangan) Athabascan Ahtna Deg Hit'an Dena'ina Gwich'in H
  3. Basicaly acess the tech level of the person asking the question.Then make your answer at that level so it will be understood. If this is possible.Sometimes the person is going to have to learn more even to understand a simple answer. On the other side an experienced person "Geek" doesn't need you to explain right click to them as an example.
  4. 1.This would take a book.The Bill of Rights would be a start.These rights are really for citizens even though the Supreme Court has extended them in most cases to cover others in the USA. 2.Tons if I equavalate that to a number 2000.That would mean the USA had done this to more countries than there have ever been on Earth.So please site examples.Most of the time the USA has been invited in some way or we declare war & invade.Following the Geneva Conference rules I think.Rules of war have always been an oxymoron to me.The USA tries to follow this.For myself there is one rule of war.WIN . 3.No the USA is not criminal. 4.This was not condoned by the leaders of the USA as far as I know the soldiers that did this served prison time & were dishonorably discharged.& they probably didn't get them all.Far less that the Japanese did to POW's in WW2. 5. I do mind that. 6. In Japan the only one I have heard about the soldier was prosecuted.Rape happens the answer is to prosecute the guilty.If you are sayng this is official US military policy then prove it. 7.The 2 dropped in WW2 the only 2 ever dropped in war.Stopped the war a the cost of many lives but far less than if the war had continued.The Japanese were vicious to POW's.& civilians of other countries.If we had nuked them till Japan sank It still wouldn't have been equal. 8. we do I am against this because we never intend to use them.It is a gross waste of tax money.I wouldn't mind the assembly/disassembly plant 20 miles from me shut down. 9. We shouldn't control what other countries do.But this is not just a USA thing with N.Koresa it is a UN thing.They also threatened the USA with their nuke.As far as I'm concerned this was a declaration of war by N.Korea on the USA so any response by the USA is justified. 10.The difference is the USA doesn't intend to use our nukes.As explained above. 11.The country was based on immigrants but these came to settle & make this country theirs.Make a new culture.They didn't miss the countries that were so bad they left.Taking a chance of making it or dieing.No welfare to bail them out.If they couldn't work they starved to death.I don't see that attitude with the immigrants of today even the legal ones.They want to bring their culture from a country so bad they left.I still can't figure that out.Many want to make enough money here to return to the country they are really loyal to.They just come to America to take advantage of the USA.& want Americans to accept their customs.While they're here. 12.The immigrants of the past made it strong with lives .blood & sweat because America was now their country to which they were loyal.This is over all not true of the immigrants today. Ask a Native American see what he/she thinks of what immigrants did for their country. Theres my answers to your post I think I covered it.
  5. All people are really one race the human race .All have the same number of chromosomes except for a few anomilies that are usually considered defects. Africans can definatly be different especially the South Africans with all German Dutch ancestors there on the lighter complected side.For Africans of much darker skin then they are quite a bit different then American "black" people because so mant other races mixed with the "black" people here.From Southern slave owners including Thomas Jefferson to Native Americans some of whom owned 'Black" slaves. Eskimos are closer to their Asian-Russian ancestors than Native Americans further south.The theory is ther was some indiginous people in America they mixed with.Some call these Anasazi I think that's the correct spelling but I'm not sure. All are effected by the gene pool there from.But in the end we can only produce offspring when we breed with other humans.There has never even been a infertile hybrid.Of human & animal.Not even the Chimpanzee.
  6. I guess that makes you a goat roper.If you stick a rear leg in each boot it helps keeg the goat in place. For me born & raised in Amarillo Texas .I'm a third generation Texan.I plan to stay here. Palo Duro Canyon is here sort of a minature Grand Canyon,Home of the Cadalliac Ranch,No major sports teams,Helium capital of the world & plenty of flat land & big sky.
  7. Lets see my color is kind of deep beige with some pink & light brown shades depending on the time of yesr.Personally I haven't seen any white people.Not even albinos are totally white. I am American that's my ethnic background.If you want to know the countries my ancestors were from .Well the Native American ones here .some disput over them being immigrants but if they were they can't find out who was here before.My German ancestor arrived in 1720 so we were owned by Britain then.Irish,Scot.English & maybe some other.
  8. I would be against the citizens of these having to learn or speak English or American.I am not aware of how the United States government or the citizens of the USA.Try this conversion.We don't make their laws they do so the blame is on them. I Would have all of them speak their native language & not cater one bit to Americans visiting their country.This might make Americans stay here & tour here.& I almost for got spend there money here. I would like to see a list of foreign countries with the can't speak the native language if one American that can't is present.& the specific law.Does the same hold true for tourists from England?Or is it onlr Americans?
  9. I bought what i wanted to today & wish I needed more.We forgot to add to the Statue of Liberty that's only till were full.Now we need a No Vacancy sign. I bet the Native Americans wish they had a zero immigrant policy wheen Columnbus landed. Maybe the natives they took the country from would wish the same if they were still around. The early immigrants fully intended to become Americans & leave their old country behind.The ones now want to bring their old country with them.Even when it was so bad they left.Figure that out.
  10. I'm not an expert in the HD changing but you may need a different setting in the BIOS if you changed the type HD. You might need to use the jumper & reset the CMOS too if the BIOS doesn't need anything.In the BIOS you probably want the CD first in the primary start up until you get Windows loaded.Might also have to see if theres a flash Bios update for the P.B.
  11. Roco ;As far as I know there is no problem if she has her lic.key.I think with MS its one computer to one license.Hers seems to qualify since it's ths same cpmputer with a new HD.But I bet she originally had a P.B. clone or ghost disc & it won't have a lic.key.
  12. ROM-DOS ;Heres one that fits the topic: Could you post full instructions for Stump breaking a horse?
  13. This could be fun I will have to think of some more. boot = tire turtle = trunk
  14. I going to start again that I'm not being racist or prejudice.I will go as far to be politically correct as to call these Americans : Americans of Mexican decent but not all the time.It's time for them to be American or return to "their" culture in Mexico where their loyalties are. I've even worked at places where Americans of Mexican decent had higher jobs than me.So I guess a piece of white trash like me should go jump in the Rio Grande & drown myself for having a job lower than an American of Mexican decent.This is not my current situation but it has been during my life. Any one involved in this recording that isn't an American citizen should be deported as a terrorist & never allowed back in the USA.This probably could be done with the patriot act it can sure be used against American when the government wants to.In that light maybe any Americans involved are guilty of treason. I wish I was an employer of a lot of people that were going to take off to protest Monday I think so I could hand them their pink slip Tuesday.& I sure wouldn't hire anyone that had been fired for this. For the illegal aliens not illegal immigrants to me immigrants are the ones that come here legally so illegal immigrant is an oxymoron.They have no right to protest in America because they are not American citizens.They should be deported.The first couple of times with finger prints & DNA taken .The third strike execution.This would be explained to them in their language. For the USA Constitution & Declaration of Independence being printed in another language as long as this is done in another country to educate I have no problem with that.But not in the USA. resopalrabotnick;The Declaration of Independence is a historic document with no legal standing but nothing mere about it to an American.The Constitution is the current core of American law or it's supposed to be.So nothing mere about it either. On a side note it gets me that people crossing the border illegally come across the desert risking their lives .I went to Jaurez one time & rode a Mexico public transit bus back across the border .Me & my friend were the only two non Mexicans on the bus.It went right across the border bridge with no customs check at all. It was expensive 10 cents back in 1977.The couple of times I went across the border then were the only times I have ever left the USA.& I have no plans to leave again.I might consider visiting Canada at some time. To end this post if anyone thinks this is OK Then why not have it sang in Spanish by Fidel Castro & really slap America in the face.
  15. I'm always trying to improve things.Why not make one like this but put enough metal in the right places in the plastic gun so it does look like a curling iron on the xray.
  16. I'm not a racist or prejudice.I live in between Americans of Mexican decent.& have went to school & even partied with more than a few.This is a historical song that should be left in English.If our national language had been Spanish & it could have been if things had went a little different.& it had originally been written in Spanish.I wouldn't want it changed to English.I doubt if there is another country that this has been done. This is beyond free speach & should be made illegal.I bet 60 days in jail would be enough to stop it from being sung in anything but English.They compared it to the Hendrix version but that was in English just done in rock/blues music with some fighter jets & dropping bombs at the end done on the guitar.Hendrix was also very high on drugs at the time.
  17. Shug7272;Thanks I saved the URL if I need this sometime.It doesn't sound like one to DL & play with unless you're ready to do a complete format. alan8187;I don't know if you can run the XP setup from dos.I'm putting in a .txt file for 98.it shows how to do it with 98.it might or might not help.
  18. SERIOUSLY OFFENDED I just heard about this & will put the article below.This offends me .What next The Declaration of Independence & The Constitution. What's the difference in doing it in Spanish or Arabic.Some things should be left alone. I hope all the people that don't go to work Monday to support immigrants are fired. I didn't post the Spanish version & I hope no one does. I guess it starts : Jose can you si This is the article. Latino pop stars record Spanish 'Star Spangled Banner' NEW YORK (AP) - Mexican pop diva Gloria Trevi, Puerto Rican reggae stars Ivy Queen and Tito El Bambino and other Latino artists are recording a Spanish-language version of the U.S. national anthem in a show of support for migrants in the United States. The Latino-oriented record label Urban Box Office (UBO) said Saturday it plans to release the new version of The Star-Spangled Banner to coincide with the U.S. Senate's debate on immigration legislation next week. Congressional debate over immigration bills proposing everything from toughened border security to the legalization of undocumented migrants in America have triggered huge demonstrations across the United States in recent weeks. "We chose to re-record The Star-Spangled Banner to show our solidarity with the undocumented immigrants and their quest for basic civil rights," UBO President Adam Kidron said in a news release. The recording, dubbed Nuestro Himno or Our Anthem, is set to "rhythmic Latin musical arrangement" but respects the song's traditional structure, UBO said. The song will be primarily in Spanish with a few words sung in English. The song is on the album Somos Americanos, which will be sold for $10 US, with a portion going to Washington-based National Capital Immigration Coalition, UBO said. Others participating in the Spanish version of The Star-Spangled Banner include Voz a Voz, Frank Reyes and Kalimba. UBO said it had also approached other artists, including Daddy Yankee and Don Omar, about taking part in the project.
  19. Shug7272;I don't need this myself right now .I looks like what to use .does it wipe out the partitions where is a blank HD? It does leave the computers BIOS doesn't it?I thought you had probably used it.
  20. alan8187 ;I guess you are able to get to DOS.If not you need to get a Windows 98 start up or boot floppy or CD. Then when you you get the A:> prompt type fdisk then delete everything so there are no partitions.Unless you want to keep some of the partitions because the have other versions of windows or something you need.What ever you delete with fdisk will be gone I think you have to start with deleting the logical drives then the extended drives then the primary drives. then reboot This will leave you with NO OS on the HD.It should have only the BIOS of your computer. If this is what it shows the try to install XP again.
  21. I really think oil is everywhere it sure seems that way for offshore anyway.They just don't tell us or let us find out because the want it the way it is.So it's in their control. Who are they the worlds very rich,,The true international or world government. If you don't believe this & you have the money drill for oil anywher & keep drilling deeper.& see how quick you end up dead. I don't think you are far off.Overpopulationis going to do it either through pollution or disease.my prediction. The oil can be drilled out from under them from offshore as soon as the radio active dust settled.
  22. With some of my other views you might find this suprising .We really don't have the right to interfere with other countries that are not directly attacking us or responsible for supporting some terrorists that attack the US.I don't think this was really proved about Iraq. If the US has WMD's that we can launch against other countries then they have the same right as independent nations. If the stand was going to be the US has this right then when only we had the atomic bomb.We needed to issue a threat that we wouldn't allow any other nation even allies to have this weapon.& if they tried we would nuke them to a point that they couldn't.Since the time for that has long past we need to just let them run thier country.& take action if they attack us.Regardless of what they attacked us with we could retaliate with far worse if we would.
  23. Blunted ;which one mine or VanBuren or both? RTT 0 ms Max Pause 1063 ms I thought that was strange.
  24. I'm running a little slow today for some reason even the testmy test was only 40Kbps but I haven't changed anything so I'm just goint to see how it's doing later .

  25. I haven't done the test yet but this is what control QOS.So you might want to see what gives you the best QOS. DefaultTOSvalue: Default: 0 Valid Range: 0 - 255 - The IP header in every datagram specifies a Type of Service (ToS) value that can be used to specify the quality of service (QoS) setting for IP datagrams. The ToS value indicates the military origin of the protocol because it was designed for the Advanced Research Project Agency Networks that was the predecessor to the current Internet. This setting in your registry & cablenut if you use it.Changes the QOS.I will post a pic below showing where this is in the speedguide .net .tcp.analyzer.I have dial-up & the setting I use doesn't use the QOS.I can activate it with a differet setting but this doesn.t work as well for me. DefaultTOSvalue is not one you set to the maximum & it works fastest. Here is the correct ways to set it depending on your connection: The IP Type of Service has the following fields: Bits 0-2: Precedence. Bit 3: 0 = Normal Delay, 1 = Low Delay. Bits 4: 0 = Normal Throughput, 1 = High Throughput. Bits 5: 0 = Normal Relibility, 1 = High Relibility. Bit 6-7: Reserved for Future Use. Bit #0-2: [128 64 32] Bit #3: [16] Bit #4: [8] Bit #5: [4] Bit #6-7: [Reserved] Bits 0,1,2 = Priority Control: 111 - Network Control use 128 + 64 + 32 = 224 110 - Internetwork Control 128 +64 + 0 = 192 101 - CRITIC/ECP 128 + 0 + 32 = 160 100 - Flash Override 128 + 0 + 0 = 128 011 - Flash 0 + 64 + 32 = 96 010 - Immediate 0 + 64 + 0 = 64 001 - Priority 0 + 0 + 32 = 32 000 - Routine 0 + 0 + 0= 0 Bit #0-2: [128 64 32] If I understand this 128 is on for bit 0;64 is on for bit 1,32 is on for bit 2. Bit #3: [16] 16= on; 0 = off Bit #4: [8] 8=on; 0 = off Bit #5: [4] 4=on; 0 = off Bit #6-7: [Reserved] Both of these have 0 for value. From what I read on this You can only have either low delay on or High Throughput on not both.If you set both I think your OS uses the default.Quote below: "The TOS value is used to indicate "better". Only one TOS value or property can be requested in any one IP datagram. Generally, protocols which are involved in direct interaction with a human should select low delay, while data transfers which may involve large blocks of data are need high throughput. Finally, high reliability is most important for datagram-based Internet management functions. Application protocols not included in these tables should be able to make appropriate choice of low delay (8 decimal, 1000 binary) or high throughput (4 decimal, 0100 binary)." "Reading RCF 1349, it states you have 5 choices in TOS. 0000 (all normal) Use default metric 1000 (minimize delay) Use delay metric 0100 (maximize throughput) Use default metric 0010 (maximize reliability) Use reliability metric 0001 (minimize monetary cost) Use cost metric other Use default metric" "Anything higher then 010, Immediate, are ment for internal network use. Meaning packets that are not ment to route to the internet." So for most I beleive one of these three would be correct: 72 which is Immediate, High Throughput, 010 010 00 That's64forImmediate+8forHighThroughput 80 which is Immediate, Low Delay, 010 100 00 001010 32+0+8+0 92 01011100 The area in the red square in the pic is where your QOS reading will be.The red square is not on the test at the site .I just added it to show you where to look.If it looks like mine then the setting you're using doesn't activate QOS.
