    A company filled with 'A' players will win every time.
    Not really. Too many egos may get in the way and not be able to produce to their expected potential. At least thats what Shaq, Kobe, Malone, Payton and Phil told me.

    Muslem?! Is that a new religion? For you to be married to the lady and not know how to spell the religion is pretty sad. Heck, Im an American and knew that, I must be in the "other" 1% of your concensus.

    basically, the virus runs faster thus allowing Window$ to crash sooner.

  4. Where do they get these people? on Worst Explanation From Tech Support? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I had just moved into my current house, the guy that lived there before had some funky phone line schemes ran through the house and only half of the jacks worked correctly, so I had to rewire the house, but when I got done the outside phone line went dead, as the phone company was doing work down the street, but unfortunately they didnt report it at the time, here is my conversation with the support line on trying to get the phone line turned back on. Me: Yes Im calling about my phone line, its not on, its like it got disconnected. Support: Let me check, Im not showing any problems with your line. Me: Well, thats why Im calling, to let you know there is a problem. Support: Have you checked different phones in your house. Me: Well, Im at the box outside and Im not getting a signal, so none of the phones in the house will work right now. Support: You need to check all your phones in the house, one of them may be off the hook. Me: Hello, am I talking to myself? If the signal to the outside box is not on, then the lines inside the house will not work. I just need you to turn the line to my house back on. Support: Have you changed anything in your house? Me: I just rewired the house. Support: Im going to send out a tech. Me: I dont need a tech, I am a tech, I need you to turn my phone line on. Support: We cant support anything within your house without sending a tech out. Me: Dont worry about the house, just turn the line that runs from the pole to my house on! I called back about 30 minutes later to find out that the line techs were working down the street and accidentally disconnected the neighborhood. The phone lines were back on about an hour later and my rewiring worked fine.

    Well, it may be a good monetary move for her now, so I would think it would be more likely to happen now.

    Hell, if I were out of work and someone *wanted* to pay me to take some pics of me naked, I sure as hell would do it!!

    Sad to see the Terra Wind makers can make a Luxury RV float, but cant do a better job with their website.
