    Welcome to the IHoP

    Now for an only in BC story: I get home tonight and step out of my car and this guy walks up to me. The guy asks, "Hey, do you have any weed for sale ?" I respond, "Uhh, no, sorry." "Do you know where I can get some ?" "Sure, got a pen ?" "No" "Okay ... I think I have one in the car, hold on a sec." Write down about 12 different dealers and hand him the paper. "Thanks man, what's your name ?" "James" "Do you want to write that down ?" "Uhhh, I guess ... Why do you need my name ?" "Oh, just so they know who referred me. They usually give you a cut, right ?" "Uhh, no." "No commission, that sucks dude." "Uhhh yeah ... I know ... anyways, I'd better get going now, have a good night." "You, too, thanks a lot." "Bye" "Bye" I don't think that guy needed anymore weed to be honest ...

    My keyboard died on me this morning ... Now onto my 5th wireless keyboard and mouse combo in 2 years ... The Staples replacement warranty has served me well

    Welcome to the IHoP

    "Sold" my GF's brother a TV 2 months ago; he hasn't paid for it ... Now he says the TV isn't working properly and refuses to pay for it ... Fixed my GF's mom's and my GF's brother's computers over a month ago and paid for the parts out of my own wallet ... Both refuse to pay because they say I sold him a TV which I knew was going to die and keep calling me a con-artist ... GF decided to go back to Vancouver early today because I told her that, if her mom and brother don't pay me soon, that I'm going to sue them for $60/hour in labour, which is the going rate for computer work, instead of the $10/hour we agreed upon ... My life rocks ...

    10 shots of Baja Rosa in a row and I was down for the count tonight ... I must say, drinking with women is a hell of a lot easier than drinking with men ... The drinks taste good and don't burn

    No computer these days comes with MS Office (except a 60-day trial on the HP/Compaq computers) ...I can send you Office, though

    Welcome to the IHoP

    All three are running off of one wireless router (two desktops are wired, the laptop is running wireless right now). If I drag stuff into the shared folder it should be available for all three units? I'm guessing it's going to be more complicated than that. I just don't want to have to re-download everything again. Yup, it will be available for all 3. You'll still have to download the files onto the laptop, so basically over doubling the amount of time it would take doing it the way I specified above; not to mention it takes up another 9+ GB on the main computer ...

    Welcome to the IHoP

    4.7GB. Maybe network your computers and make a shared folder. That would work too. Why bother wasting hard drive space and time by putting them into the shared folder ?Start > My Computer > Right-click on the partition you want to share > Select Sharing and Security > Click on "If you understand the risk but still want to share the root of this drive, click here" > Check "Share this folder on the network"

    Welcome to the IHoP

    6600GT doesn't handle HDR very well, though, plus it can't do AA at a decent resolution on Oblivion, although I must say, it does still look really good and plays well on my overclocked 6600GT (550/1200) ... My other computer looks way better with the 7600GT ...

    Hotmail fvcking sucks ... The spam filter is absolute garbage, if you don't log in every month, they terminate your account, and the virus protection is terrible ... Inbox = full of spam Junk e-mail box = full of actual e-mails which often get deleted before I can even get a chance to read them Awesome ... just awesome ... This is what I wake up to every morning ...

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Just picked up a new computer ... Pre-built (Cisnet), but can't complain about the price ... AMD Athlon X2 3800+ 2 x 512 MB Kingston PC3200 200 GB Seagate ATA133 Hard Drive Lite-On DVDRW + DVD-ROM Optical Drives MSI Motherboard (MS-7191 mATX, PCI-E x16, PCI-E x1, 2x PCI) 400 Watt PSU (12V x 15 A) 5-in-1 Card Reader Windows XP Media Center Edition All for $492 Canadian ... If I were to build it myself, that would cover the cost of the processor and the memory New graphics card is definitely going in (7600GT or 7900GT) and possibly a new motherboard and/or power supply ...
