  1. Not to start a debate, really. But we need to finish it this time. We are not quitters. And the world at least needs to know that. We let a lot of people down last time. Just an opinion. But I am very proud of our boys and the job they are doing for us, and I also hope it is over for them soon too so our boys can come home. I have a few friends over there, and I am proud of them.
  2. Actually it should be 12:19 but I couldn't change it when I accidently clicked the wrong one. So the star count changed, I had 2 and now I have one. And the combo looks real nice. Thanks Tommie
  3. Just as long as they at least use decent manufacturers and have somewhat knowledgable staff.
  4. Did you ask him? Maybe he did something. I don't use AOL. Or any messenger. Sorry. Good luck.
  5. Yeah, I still remember when Sam W. changed most things in WM as fast as he could to American made, and started shopping American factories for his goods. Those were the days.
  6. That was truly amazing .s1, just amazing.
  7. You know what really gets me besides this, we as a nation have come from all over the world. We are a mix, yes a legal mix. So when someone comes and bothers us, are they not also bothering their own brothers? Just a good question to ask yourself while you are peacefully sitting at your computer!
  8. j3grizz so I suppose you will now be smokin through the forum.
  9. By not shouting it loud enough, might we be drowned out by all the bad going on? Like my wife watching a soap opera, and thinking I am up to something. She see's it and believes it. Or like a child going into a school and shooting people, and then other people following in his footsteps. If we stay quiet like we have for so long, are we not just letting it go the way it has for the last 40 years. We were a much prouder nation 40 years ago. Miles_Smiles lets have a little preview: World War I, military conflict, from August 1914 to November 1918 The war began as a clash between two coalitions of European countries. The first coalition, known as the Allied Powers, included the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Serbia, Montenegro, and the Russian Empire (see Russia). The Central Powers, which opposed them, consisted of the empires of Germany and Austria-Hungary. Japan joined the Allied Powers in 1914. The Ottoman Empire joined the Central Powers in 1914, as did Bulgaria in 1915. The same year, Italy entered the war on the Allied side. Although the United States initially remained neutral, it joined the Allies in 1917. The conflict eventually involved 32 countries, 28 of which supported the Allies. Some of these nations, however, did not participate in the actual fighting. WW11 Aug 25, 1939 - Britain and Poland sign a Mutual Assistance Treaty. Aug 31, 1939 - British fleet mobilizes; Civilian evacuations begin from London. Sept 1, 1939 - Nazis invade Poland. Sept 5, 1939 - United States proclaims neutrality; German troops cross the Vistula River in Poland. Sept 10, 1939 - Canada declares war on Germany; Battle of the Atlantic begins. May 26, 1940 - Evacuation of Allied troops from Dunkirk begins. Jan 8, 1940 - Rationing begins in Britain. July 10, 1940 - Battle of Britain begins. Between May and November 1940 15,000 people were killed in bombing raids on Britain. France, Australia, New Zealand and India declare war on the same day followed by South Africa on 6th and Canada on 10th. The US provided millions of dollars in weapons, armament as well as money itself to the Allied forces. Many reasons, including that Nazi Germany was sinking American supply ships because the US was providing financial and military support to the Allied troops (England, France, China and Russia). We were attacked, without warning and without provocation, by Japan. So naturally we declared war on Japan. A few days later, again without provocation, both Italy and Germany declared war on us. So, we gave them all the war they could handle. President Roosevelt never asked for war with Italy or Germany before the Congress. Instead, three days after December 7th, Italy and Germany declared war on the United States. In short we are used to being picked on by those we help out, that is the burden of being the US, I guess. So do you sleep alright not speaking German Miles_Smiles?(or would that be Japanese?) If that is not loud enough, I could tone it up a bit. "S H O U T"
  10. So what happened? Did you just get the new provider when you first posted on April 11th?
  11. Now you know that trolls are a special altogather. You are in your own category.
  12. 1) Test will only state what is average for provider. It depends what package you have paid for. 8)State that you are not knowledgeable at the beginning of your post, so the others will know how to properly answer you. And visa versa, state that you are knowledge if you are. 15)When posting your speeds, please state your advertised speeds. This saves a lot of questions by the members. Meaning the speeds that you pay your provider for. And also your connection type, DSL,cable, satelite, wifi, T-1 2 or 3.etc...
  13. Welcome to the forum queensndiamonds Nice speeds.
  14. Does that use a lot of resources like MSN messenger? Or was that a lot of start up time? Maybe I am saying it wrong.
  15. Member Messages works for me. About the same. Would a program be required on our own comp? You never know.
  16. Yeah, I had this kid one time say(man I'm only 13) and then I knew how to answer him, with kid gloves like he was my own kids. Lol And sometimes you can tell by the way they write.
  17. And how many post once, never to show up again. Lol Meaning they come in to give an opinion. Or they get their answer and are done, kind of feel used on those.
  18. Like they did not know when they started, that it was wrong. Pay the piper.
  19. It shuts down programs that are in relationship with the spyware and virus's, and they can not hide when in there. That is the way i understood it. So yes. And it works best when in safe mode with networking, and it runs faster. Also I run my anti-spyware in there too, while I am in there. You don't have to do this every time, just if you think something got past you.
  20. By the way unclbill3108 just get you some free software that will do a better job! AVG Free, Avast, Spybot,Microsoft Defender, Ad-aware, are a few of the good ones. And take that extra $ and do something with it. And then some free dial-up.
  21. Here is a real good movie for you to see Dark06. Uncommon Valor (1983) And a couple of my favorite quotes: Sailor: You don't quit, boy. Not when it's for real! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mrs. Wilkes: It's taken me TEN YEARS to get that damn war out of his head! Rhodes: Oh yeah? Well it looks like it's still in there to me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rhodes: We'll need transportation... preferably four-wheel drive. Wilkes: Buy it or "borrow" it? Rhodes: Steal the F#@&er! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sailor: Boy, you just bought the whole can of whup-ass! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sailor: Boy... usin' that martial bullS#!t on me's gonna get real expensive.
