  1. This is a worst case scenario, if your getting into the i-net throught the second pc, it's called a ad hoc network, which requires the other computer to be on and pass everything you want. You're held to that computer's specifications and to Microsofts i-net connection sharing limitations. It's a great "theory" but a pain in the ass to try to make it happen. Your best bet is to hook your computer directly to the internet, and let the others slave off you through the wireless. Or you could use the wireless router properly, which is to hook the wireless through the modem and then let the all computers connect to the wireless.
  2. It looks like your making some sort of progress... or regress, however you want to think of it... Well, it COULD be that your monitor is dead or not plugged in correctly. Check all connectors and plugs... I doubt it is, but what the heck.... give it a shot. I believe you need new RAM. You already have the beeps, (troubleshooting indicator), if you have more than one stick of RAM - take out all but one, and try swapping in and out the rest to find the bad one.

  6. My turkey turned out perfect thank you cholla. I had to cook it for 5.5 hours though which seemed a bit extreme to me, but either the oven temperature is off, the bird wasn't completely thawed, or the thermometer was broken. So... I used the time honored method of being able to pull off the leg easily, and it turned out the bird was perfect. The rest of the meal was outstanding as well, and the stuffing was to die for.
  7. *shudders* that's just wrong.... I'm sorry your dad's such a weirdo... this post should be removed.

  11. LOL Never wondered about that myself. Now I am If you try to fail, but you succeed, which have you done?
  12. I don't like dry turkey myself, and Aggr3 always had a way with fowl, so it never was dry. I never really understood how or why, so I still keep injecting (inspecting, infecting and neglecting
  13. *grins* Great, then I'm not an alcoholic.... yet.... *puts on a big russian hat and struts around while the turkey cooks* btw: this article was interesting. http://www.geoffmetcalf.com/firsttday_19991126.html
  14. Happy Thanksgiving everybody! *hugs to whoever wants 'em* Is 9 AM too early to open a bottle of wine?
  15. *grins* I am playing that song on the radio station every three hours today. I love it too, Aggr3 showed it to me years ago, and got me hooked. OK Cholla, this is what I have done. I followed your prep instructions with a *tiny* bit of modifications (calgon: I will try the "brining" at Christmas when I have enough lead time to prep). I washed the bird in cold water. I used the lemon juice and water mix, in a regular roasting pan (the large size roasting pan, the turkey fit in the pan with about 3/4 inch to spare on the butt end) there is about a quarter inch on the bottom now. I rubbed it with extra virgin olive oil (can you BE an extra virgin anything?). I spiced the inside with the spices I mention later and stuffed it with celery as you said (never thought about this before, and I'm wondering why to do it, but followed your instructions like a blind sheep) and can I use that celery later in the stuffing? If you don't answer I am going to try it. I sprinkled paprika, sage, ground mustard (just a whim), white pepper, garlic and fine ground chives over it (yes, it looks quite gay now). It looks like a rainbow! I didn't sew the bird closed, I used four metal pins (I apologize to anyone who may be offended in a turkey-day manner by the use of metal in cooking fowl). But it came with a clamp on the legs and I'm being extra lazy The bird is breast side up in the roaster, and I covered him with foil (not touching the bird), however you can use two pieces of foil well, if you use them on the ends instead of the sides - it fully covers the bird. I have set the timer for one hour, then I will use the big 'ole injector to take some of the jiuce from the bottom of the pan and inject it. I will do this twice and then follow your last hour of instructions using butter. Dangit boy, it's 8:30 AM and I want turkey now!
  16. why do kids always wait till you're in the bathroom to have to ask a question?
