• Cable Modem Degradation? 4/6/2008 12:22:35 AM
  
  I can feel your pain. Just had a month-long fight with voip provider and cable provider about intermittent slowdowns in service. They kept having me reset crap all the time and replace equipment and rearrange my network until I documented lost packets in ping transmissions in THEIR end of the network - my brother suggested it - THEN they decided to send out a tech. Turns out the original tech who installed our cable couldn't use a tape measure and had actually installed four (4!~) connectors in a 3-foot length of cable near the pole. after 5 years the weather had finally gotten to it and corroded the connections. This is after they replaced the cable-modem and the voip router. Why did I have to spend over 5 hours total on my cell phone foll...

• Formating Hard Drive with Windows XP 4/4/2008 10:40:14 PM
  
  This is a bit off topic, but I thought I'd mention that I avoid that situation by encrypting partitions on my hard drives and using only them for any and all porn files, including the location of the browser (with it's bookmarks). ~Robert I'd be very interested in exactly how you went about that. Sounds very nifty.

  There may be more to it than that, but not likely. There is such a thing as a &quot;blue fringe&quot; effect that can happen sometimes to some cameras, although I've never heard of it in the FX3. <link> for a great look at the camera from a professional's point of view with the casual user in mind.

• Digital still camera advice please 6/15/2007 7:15:55 AM
  
  My current camera is a <link> . It fits my hand well and easy to manipulate - and I have fairly average hands, maybe a bit thicker than average. If you go to my <link> and look at the nature photos - the photos of the irises, the dandelion, the columbine, and the lilies-of-the-valley were all taken with it. The only thing I'd change on this camera is to add a hotshoe to it so I could use a variety of flash attachments/systems.

• A funny joke told by a beautiful woman ... 4/29/2006 12:53:29 AM
  
  My dad is 75 years old and loves to fish. He was sitting in his boat the other day when he heard a voice say, &quot;Pick me up.&quot; He looked around and could not see any one. He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice again, &quot;Pick me up,&quot; He looked in the water and there floating on the top was a frog. My dad said, &quot;Are you talking to me?&quot; The frog said, &quot;Yes, I'm talking to you. Pick me up and kiss me and I'll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen and will give you the most wonderful sexual pleasures that you have ever dreamed of.&quot; My dad looked at the frog for a short time and then reached over and picked it up carefully, placing it in his front breast pocket.. Then the frog said...

• Movie ID please 6/13/2005 11:47 PM
  
  OK, folks, this is a doozy. This movie was showing in theaters (at least in the Boston area) circa 1985+/-2 years. I seem to remember that it was part of a trilogy of stories. One of the stories was centered on a young man being driven to a castle in a carriage to meet a woman who had feathers rather than hair (kind of a period piece/fantasy feel to it). The carriage driver frolics with the serving girls, the young man frolics with the woman, all to the music of Ravel's &quot;Bolero&quot;. At the end, it turns out that the lady was a vampire type who kills him. I have NO idea what the name of the movie was or who was in it - with the possibility that the carriage driver could have been Jamie Gillis. There is NO dialogue in this segment, ...
