  1. A possible quick fix is to do a "chkdsk /f c:" from the command prompt. It will ask you to schedule it on reboot, click yes, and reboot. This will check your c: drive for errors and do a quick fix. If this finds problems, you should probably go ahead and do a "chkdsk /r c:" which will attempt a more permanent repair of the disk itself. If that doesn't work, it sounds like you have something nasty caught in your internet cache. Try clearing your cache and restarting either explorer or firefox. If you are unfamiliar with deleting temp internet files, try a freeware cleaning program, such a
  2. Isn't the snake the hero in this story? Was it really bad that we gained knowledge? The bible actually makes a lot more sense when seen as a tool being used by God to help get us back to our original, unenlightened, selves. Lucifer, the morning star, (a classic protagonist in this story) is actually quite heroic throughout the bible. He stands up to an evil god that threatens mankind with an eternity of torture unless we bow down and kiss his feet. Too bad he didn't win. Would have made for a better ending.
  3. You call evolution faith-based and then call ME stupid. And what is your theory that fits the preponderance of evidence in the geological record? Oh wait. I am doing what I just counseled against. I really don't care that you believe in a creator. I don't really care that you believe that the words in a book written in the bronze age was inspired by the creator you believe in. What I do care about is your desire to push the ridiculous beliefs contained within that book on the rest of society, as with gay marriage. What I won't do is argue with you about it like you hold a legitimate pos
  4. I still don't understand engaging in discourse with religious people over the legitimacy of their religion. Trying to discuss Christianity like it has any logical basis, other than to be used as a means to control the general populace, is ludicrous. It is the religion that introduced both hell and forgiveness with the same holy book. It's like arguing with a 5 year old about the easter bunny, which, although entertaining, is quite pointless. And I just don't see the entertainment value in arguing with people that have been converted since birth to believe a complete mythology.
  5. Thank you so much. I was having a crappy day and this made me laugh out loud. I needed it.
  6. Crispy's never fail to amaze me.
  7. And if my penis was 4 feet long, I would pass out every time I got an erection.
  8. Please send mine to Solderz (Westerville).Thank you. I really enjoyed this and hope I can participate in the next one. I usually don't care enough in these low stakes to try real hard, but this made it worthwhile.
  9. One math joke to rule them allA mathematician and his best friend, an engineer, attend a public lecture on geometry in thirteen-dimensional space."How did you like it?" the mathematician wants to know after the talk."My head's spinning", the engineer confesses. "How can you develop any intuition for thirteen-dimensional space?""Well, it's not even difficult. All I do is visualize the situation in arbitrary N-dimensional space and then set N = 13."
  10. Looks like I'm good. Please add me to roster. I'm playing on my own. ;-)Look forward to playing.
  11. Not sure what happened, but Daniel appears to have lost all but 49 chips. Can't find specific hand though.Or it could be that Pokernews screwed up the chip stacks.
  12. Matt and Trey are the two of the best political satirists of this century. Muslims can believe that their religion is set apart from all others, and should never be criticized in any way, especially non-adherents, but they are, quite clearly, delusional. The fact that the majority of those in the media deem it acceptable to be extorted into modifying their content based on the death threats of insane people is ludicrous. What the media ought to be doing is saturating the air waves with a large number of muhammed pictures. James Cameron should direct a short of muhammed (in 3D of course), an

    Dairy Free

    Eat whatever a cow eats. Since cows aren't cannibals, they aren't eating dairy. So if a cow is eating it, it is approved for your diet. Oh wait. Mad Cow disease started because cows ARE cannibals. Never mind. Just eat Ostrich; except for their eggs.
  14. You're right. Positrons are currently used. I was thinking about what that story said about anti-protons for use in irradiating tumors, which is currently being researched, and typed the wrong thing. Nice catch.
  15. Although we are perfectly capable of creating earthquakes. It just takes a different tech:Geothermal Tech causes quakes
  16. I really hope, in the bottom of my heart, that this is sarcastic. The amount of antimatter being created at CERN is harmless and we have been using anti-protons in hospitals for years. Why haven't you heard about it in the main press? Because it is harmless.Science really is the hope for mankind and I wish the general masses would bother to learn something about the stories they read before going off half-cocked. But, again, I am assuming the qyaqi was being sarcastic.Here is some info that was posted because so many people believed what was printed in Dan Brown's book Angels and Demons ab
  17. Interview with Anna Gunn (plays Skylar).Interview LinkBreaking Bad’s Anna Gunn Knows What’s Going to Happen to Skyler ... But Isn’t Telling UsOn last night's Breaking Bad, Skyler White, Walt's formerly mild-mannered wife, took drastic action in the face of Walt's forced cohabitation. [spoiler ALERT for those who haven't seen the episode yet.] Instead of quietly slipping back into life with him, she initiated an affair with her boss (and alerted Walt to that fact with a terse, "I ****ed Ted"). For Anna Gunn, who plays Skyler, it was a joy to finally get to see her character act out. "[Creator]
  18. roflThanks for the laugh this morning.
  19. And they missed him again.Story LinkAnother futile search for the 'Barefoot bandit'A 35-member search team combed Orcas Island for 14 hours Thursday after a possible sighting of 18-year-old fugitive Colton Harris-Moore. The cops came up empty-handed once again.By Erik LacitisISLAND COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICEColton Harris-Moore continues to elude authorities and captivate the news media.

  21. Good trip report. Considering your destination, I did not expect much. Kind of like seeing a trip report on Cincinnati, or Detroit.But well done.;-()
  22. Barefoot Bandit SearchI personally think they won't find him, yet again, placing more egg on their face. I think he will steal a police boat this time.
