None of the Macs have this issue. I think I discovered the issue. I had changed my settings in Opera using about:config. I [...]

For those of you that still insist on using ebay I’d suggest caution when purchasing an “iPod” from ebay. Counterfeit Official iPod There is a little apple logo and the word “iPod” at the bottom of the screen I don’t see that logo on the real iPod Memory and processor chip at top (behind screen) [...]

Grade: Kindergarten Age: 4 It seemed like a regular Friday. We had alphabet, milk break and recess just like every regular day. After recess we’d normally just sit and draw or play and wait to get ready for the bus. Miss McNanny announced after recess that we should each pick a partner for “something special”. [...]

Marcus – winner of the challenge, immunity and a guaranteed spot in the finals at Las Vegas.

None of the solutions online were of [...]

I just received my copy of Office Ultimate 2007 (yes, I bought a 2007 app in 2008 … *sigh* why do they name them with years?) and everything went fine with no problems until I tried the second disk (which contains Accounting and Business Contact Manager). Accounting installed and then BCM threw an exception “Setup [...]

Today was an eventful day. I drove to Cleveland, reunited with my father’s side of the family and got arrested. More on that arrested part to come. For the labor day weekend my father decided to host a small family reunion. My sister flew in from California and I drove in from Pittsburgh to visit [...]
