    oh, you're gonna get water all riled up all over again by offering alternatives to her offering. i find www.pandora.com great, as you get to have some control over the playlists.

    :2funny:

    Nah, to each his own. No-one forces me to listen to country or rap, I won't attempt to force anyone else to listen to Fall Out Boy, Buckcherry, or Marilyn Manson. hehehe

    Why everyone should boycott Continental Airlines

    I got her here safely, and we're having a ball, but this whole situation has cost her over 250$ US. THat blows, and I am really not happy about it.

    Hopefully she can gain some back from her travelers insurance but who knows.

    At any rate, she's having a blast and focused on enjoying the rest of her vacation.

    Remember NOT to fly Continental, they SUCK!

    Why everyone should boycott Continental Airlines

    Grrrrr, I am SO frustrated! Ready? Great, listen up.

    My friend was flying in from Minneapolis last night. (Backstory: She flew from England last week, and she spent a week at a ranch in Montana horseback riding. Her flight to me was supposed to land at 9:20 PM ast night and she is here until Friday.)

    There was some delay at the Minneapolis airport for her to land. THat delay (they circled for 3 hours) caused her to miss her connecting flight.

    Her luggage got lost and she was stuck at the Minneapolis airport last night. OK, the joys of flying right? We all know that stuff can happen and so does she.

    Except by the time she was able to call me, (she called her mother revered the charges, then her mother called me and gave me the payphone that she was at), everyone else at Continental had left the airport. THey just closed their part of the terminal after giving her the 1-800 number to CALL and reschedule her flight. WTF? They could have rebooked her immediately at the gate when she got off, instead they gave her a voucher and told her to call a 1-800 number!

    So here she is, 700 miles from where she is supposed to be, in a nearly empty ariport, no-one to help her. She calls the 1-800 number and the lady that answers says it's the wrong number. SHe finally finds someone in baggage claim that is willing to talk to her (everyone else told her to go away, it wasn't their issue). And the baggage claim lady calls someone else and they get a new 1-800 number.

    Now, my friend has no access to her bags, where all her credit cards and money is. She has on her: Her small carry on. The clothes she is wearing. Her wallet and that's IT!!

    They left her just stranded!

    Finally her mum is able to get through to the 1-800 number and get her booked on a new flight to me today. I'll get her at 2:30. BUT WTF? Thhe entire terminal just walks away with a foreigner stranded in their terminal. They don't offer her a hotel room, they don't offer her meal vouchers. They say: Call this number and leave!

    I am thoroughly disgusted by that treatment. If that was my daughter I would be suing someone for everything their worth.

    /end rant.

    Feel free to comment, but frankly: Nothing is going to change my mind about this airline. They know their responsibilities to their customers and they failed in every way!

    setting up a partition.......

    in General Help

    Posted

    I would NOT recommend setting up a partition unless you absolutely need it, At the end of the day it does nothing for you and it is more of a hassle than it is a benefit (I know I set one up and didn't need it for what I set it up for). If you DO really need one, "partition magic" is a decent program.

    If you just want your OS on one hard drive, I would suggest getting a second smaller hard drive and using that instead of setting up partitions because you eventually lose space with them when it's all said and done.

    But, why do you need one? Your drive is only going to use the space it uses, and the "added space" from a partition is basically null.

    Then again, I'm a chick, so don't listen to me, I don't know anything  :wink: unless you want me to douse you in tech S#!t like this:

    A prtition is used for sepreating a drive into distinct logical drives, However, when partitioning a drive, you create the protential for causing errors in your "partition table" which can result in your entire drive becoming inoperable. Furthermore, partioning does not protect you from hard drive failure, so it's a much better solution to have a seperate drive for your back-ups or other operation systems.

    With each partition you make you need to factor in extra drive space to allow for your OS to run and give room to install programs that require a "HOME drive" (this could be named anything so I won't call it a c drive). So if you have two or more partitions on a drive, you end up wasting twice as much space on that drive to calculate free space.

    The best recommendation would be to buy a second drive that will allow your OS to "move" (speed wise), and the other programs you believe you want to install the freedom that they need.

    If you are looking purely for a backup solution, the most efficient way is through RAID, which will allow you to automatically mirror your drive as you use it.. 

    Hope that helps!

    ~sincerely,

    the wet chick

    Who won American Idol?!?!

    in General Discussion

    DAMN IT!  I recoreded the finale tonight, I've been following it since the first episode (i've been watching since last season, I was so pissed that the stupid ass won.. ehhhhh).  I've been cheering Jordan Sparks on since the auditions (I knew that she was going to win.. but then again I knew last year that Katharine McPhee was going to win but she came in second... GOD I was pissed off, I was seriously in love with that chick from the first moment I saw/heard her.. and she lost to that pepper haired cerebral palsy mofo..... I'm still mad about those results ... okay, I'm sorry about the cerebral palsy crack, but seriously WTF is wrong with him, and don't say "he has soul." because soul may make you 'get down' but it doesn't make you act like a retard)...

    SO, I'm pissed because I recorded it on DVR, I go to play it back and the video gets to a part when a bunch of people are singing 'Beatles Sargent Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band' or something and the friggen video stops!!!  I'm assuming right before the final results.  GRRRRR, I go to the American Idol website and they aren't showing the results yet... it just says "WATCH THE FINALE!" --- I go to Fox's website and the same S#!t... I try to Google it and nothing.  I guess it's just too soon. .. now maybe they showed the results in the middle of the show or something (I played the show in the background while I was doing some work) I fast forwarded and didn't see anything that looked like a results thing and plus it's Americal Idol style to hold out till the last second.

    BAH!

    So anyway, can someone clue me in on the winner?  Did my girl win or what?!?  She better have won because she totally deserved to win, Blake is cool and all but between the two Jordan is a much better singer (though I totally think that Blake is a much better artist and I know that we're going to see some dope ass S#!t from him in the future... I actually think it would be better for his future career if he didn't win.)

    WHO WON!?!?!  AHHH, damn DVR bug!

    -D

    mmkay sexy hot young thing, I am restraining from moving this to off topic only because you're such a stud (and you own the site)...

    watching American Idol is GAY (but you own the site so I'll forgive you)

    the only thing gayer is shaving your cats ass... I hope you don't do that....

    so, I will leave your post here and not move it, and I promise that I will futher teach you about the intracacies of "gay" and "GAY", because I wouldn't ever want you to embarrass yourself like this in public with real people...

    again, American Idol is gay

    Baseball is not gay

    Liking cats is not gay

    Sex with cats is gay

    i-net pron is not gay

    buying it when its same sex...... gay!

    Happy Mother's Day to all TMN mommies!! I hope you were as appreciated as I was!  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

    A special thank you to Aggr3 and my 4 beautiful children for making mine, and my entire weekend perfect!  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

    I got a great meals all three days ( I didn't HAVE to clean up, I merely volunteered too, and that makes all the difference!), I got to be there when two of my sons won both games of their doubleheader, I got to watch 4 runs come in by one of them, and the other got almost home before the batter was out....  :cheesy: :cheesy: :cheesy:

    I got to go 4 wheeling ( I don't think Aggr3 will want to do that again, if his ankle ever heels  :shocked: LOL), I got to play with the kids, I got to practice baseball with them, and my van looks brand new.  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

    I received some beautiful cards and gifts, and I was spoiled rotten...  :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

    I want Mother's Day again tomorrow!  :2funny:

    Thank you to my family, and I hope you all had wonderful Mother's Day's too!

    It was a beautiful day!

    The Cleveland Indians were playing the Baltimore Orioles, and if you saw the game last night, there was a HUGE controversial call to make the game over, and the Indians played so HARD today that I can't even explain how outstanding it was.

    At any rate - the kids are now outfitted for the next baseball game :D and I got to give my ex a gift wherin he smiled : and that meant more than anything!

    It was a beautiful day!

    Aggr3 and I took the two middle kids to a ball game. The eldest child wanted to be a computer geek with the current husband, and the youngest had a dog show, so it worked out perfectly since my husband (now) has zero interest in sports or games.

    It was a blast. The tickets to the Indans game were awesome, the team they were playing beat them the night before, and ruined their 6 game streak, and they knew it and proved they knew it.

    We got to watch awesome action live, and the day was gorgeous, and I don't even like baseball, but now, after today, I could become a fan of it. We saw an amazing amout of HUGE plays. A guy flew through the air and caught a ball, and then.... in mid air aimed it perfectly to first base to get the runner out. Damn, that was amazing, I mean he was amazing! Another guy flew through the air and caught a ball and landed on his face!

    I can't explain it, but it was a perfect day, and yet another gift to me in my life.

    Thank you to Aggr3 and Atnevon for making this happen, I had a 'day in the life of '"everyone", and it made me feel whole :)

    I'm gonna smile for a week! :D

    *hugs and love to all*

    Life is great! I'm BEAMING!

    OK just a straight 3 question poll  on Windows Vista ,

    Are you running it ,

    Are you going to upgrade within the year ,

    Or not bothered, and plan to stay with your current O/S

    For me I will be staying with XP for at least 2 years , then decide ,

    Xp does all I need , but then I said that about Win M.E.  :lol:

    I never buy a new OS or a new car before all the bugs are worked out. It may put me a year or so behind the times, but when I do buy it, I am sure that the cockroaches are gone and I don't have to constantly upgrade.

    That being said, no Vista for me for at least a year.
