Funny, my wife's view of the movie was totally different. She has never read the books, hasn't even shown interest in reading them, but she really enjoyed the movie.
Usually she is asking questions non-stop about what is going on during the movie, but LotR: FotR was one of the first movies that she didn't ask any questions. I would lean over after a portion of the film, ready to answer questions and she told me "I got it."
To top it all off, she bought the DVD for the theatrical version, even thought I told her the Extended version was coming out. "We'll just have both." was her answer.
I feel the same way. At least AVS Forum is safe, and HTT is still around... *sigh* Gotta get my fix of front projection home theater untill my AE200 ships from PJ.
What I don't understand is why you were deploying a Mandrake solution when you obviously have a Microsoft network and your experience is focused on Microsoft products. To be l33t and c00l?
I picked up a docking station for my Latitude CPt at the local Good Will (salvation army, etc) for 10 bucks with monitor stand. Not saying your local will have it, but it's always a chance.
Since there are no "real" cures for viruses, mearly anitviruses that train the bodies immune system to fight off viral infection, with time, could these HPAs be used as a sort of basic antivirus, waiting in the blood stream to attach to viruses?
I know nothing about these HPAs other than what I've read in the the linked articles, but thoughts of HPA based morning vitamins to help prevent things as mundain as flu to as vicious as ebola sure sounds like something to strive for.
I can see the slogans now. "A Pill a day, Keeps the Viri at bay!"
I use Sendmail with Amavis and UVScan to scan for viruses on a 3500 user mail server. No complaints so far, and I've not had a virus slip past. I've cron setup to download virus def updates every morning and that keeps me fairly up to date. Using the newer releases that daemonize amavis help to keep the system load down.
Overall, I'm pleased with the package.

It is a PK78, a sailing pram. The designer's website is http://www.bateau.com/ and the plan is available here http://www.bateau.com/plans/small/PK78.php3
I've quite a few pictures of it, from build to completion, all captured on 35mm since my digital cam died and I've not wanted to replace it with another point/shoot model, but none have been scanned in because I'm lazy.
Also on the designer's site is a sailing pram much like the PK78 called the D4. A version of plans for the D4 are available for free at http://www.bateau.com/free/freeplans.htm
I don't know what quantifies as an exercise for geeks, but I've taken up jogging and biking. I do sail, but in a unique way, I suppose. Everyone I talk to thinks sailing is some high brow sport for the rich and snootie, until they see my boat.
I made it out of plywood and epoxy, and use a poly tarp for the sail. It may not seem too much like exercise, but I've noticed my arms bulk up somewhat from holding the main and jib sheet lines. As to the geek part of it, there are tons of nifty electronic gadgets to explore when building and rigging your boat. GPS, sounders, VHF, light systems, electrical systems, etc.
I had one sent to me this year, maybe 5 months ago, and it included 5 crisp $1 bills. Also said in the envelope to give them to the child(ren) of the household. Since we don't have kids, we spent them on bones for the dog.
Well, if you want to get technical, Stout is an Ale as it is brewed with Ale yeast. What makes it a stout is the amount of hops (for nose and bittering), malted barley, and in stouts, roasted non-malted barley used compaired to other ales and lagers.
Being a homebrewer and as my wife calls me, a beer-bigot, I've learned there is much more to good beer than opening a can of BudMillCoors. It can be quite interesting and rewarding to brew your own beer, but I've found I can't drink just any beer now, as I know what taste better and what tastes a whole lot worse. Life is to short to drink bad beer.
If anyone is interested in reading up on Brewing your own beer, a nice on-line resource is http://www.howtobrew.com/ a online version of the book "How to Brew" by John Palmer.
My thoughts exactly. My dad and I are going to golf 18 holes on Saturday and then hang out at the club house for a while.
As I've gotten older, I've developed more of a guy relationship with my dad instead of the whole father - son thing. I think the big turning point was when my wife and I bought a house and I asked for some help doing painting and such around the place. I'd much rather spend time with him than box him up a tie and UPS it to him.
I'm usually a big SCI/FI and fantasy reader myself, but this summer I'm reading books on construction of small barns, sheds, etc. I'm looking at building a 16' x 20' workshop behind my garage and want to do a majority, if not all, the work myself.
Talk about interesting. Factoring Live Load values on the floor, beams, walls, and the dead weight of snow on the roof to prevent problems is fun. Jumping through all the hoops for the local code office is not.
I didn't know I'd give up as much as I did when I got married. Only allowed one computer and a router box, plus her computer. Then we bought a house and I would be able to get the basement. *BZZT* Had a friend in need that takes up what would have been my "office."
Oh well, now I'm looking at building a 20' x 18' heated/insulated shed in the back yard for my stuff.
This new bridge will be the longest span between towers, but not the longest suspension bridge. Mackinac Bridge, connecting Michigan's Upper and Lower Peninsulas, is five-miles long, including approaches, and is the world's longest suspension bridge between cable anchorages.

I've been over it on days that where so windy there was a police escort across and you had to turn the car wheel at the expansion joints to stay in your lane. This was shortly after the lady in the Yugo blew over the side of the bridge in a wind storm.
I've the Dell 8200 and you do not have to disconnect all the cables to open the case. You do need to lay it on it's side and the case hinges open much like a suitcase. That and the latch on the bottom is hard to get to if the case is sitting on it.:)

I'm very disapointed. No Moria, no Mordor. At least where I attended the RA was an Ogre.

Little details? A dwarf that falls for an elf so much that he threatens anyone who speaks ill of her with death? (hint - Rider of the Mark)
Hardly a little detail

Well, thanks for that less than informed input.

I've a sinking feeling that I took troll bait.

HIV is also a virus and the body looses so much trying to fight HIV off that it becomes easy prey for other viruses that it could usually fight off.

I hate to reply to myself, but you can setup UVScan to scan samba shares, and amavis supports Sendmail Milter.
I knew there was something I forgot to include. Time for the morning coca-cola.

Trillian "kinda runs" with the wine stuff from Codeweavers.
The graphics are screwed up in the themes, but the functionality is there.

Thanks, but no thanks. Will the actress/taste-testers from Iron Chef be making this offer?
Nope, just the fortune teller.
Same thoughts as to the lobster episode. I always wondered why my grandpa called it "a bug." I know why now...
I know it's a troll, but what if the vibrating back cushion was bought for you for her to use?

We played Scorched Earth when I was in high school. That and the Monkey Attack and Nibbles that came with QBasic 5 on Dos 6.22
PS/2 machines with 40 Meg hard drives... those where the days.
I have one of these on the shelf in my office... climbed up to check it out and the basted thing only has a CGA interface... guh...
Turns out it is top of the line hardware, vintage 1986.
