Gatorade is sponsoring a high school game rematch from 1993. But found myself liking the idea by end. Give it a read.

I noticed his obit whilst in DC last week. All of geekdom is mourning.

Joe you addled old boob, no one was disputing Murphy having won the MoH. The post way up the page was about another soldier whose exploits were as dramatic, if not more so, as Murphy's but did not receive the MoH. You goofy old feck.

Ce qui? Doth mine eyes deceive me? Where's the pre-order page?

Thanks bboyle, I will give it 'em a spin. I was a bit curious about Georgetown but with your advice I will skip. How about a quick pass through? Coffee and a croissant?

gunnergoz, maybe he meant for said encounter. Anyone got any serious recommendations?

Um, I don't see the connection between the first and second link. And the first and third are linked by subject but not style. Is this a test?

Wow, that one is just too easy. It's not even fun. FYI, what difference does underhand versus overhand make? Other than ergonomic?

And from the muck....it rises again! Arrive April 5th, depart April 11th. Still waiting to hear back about White House and Capital Tour. Staying in Arlington. The Headmistress made the plans and has been to DC before so I think we are close to public transit. Now I need places for eating and drinking. Tastes run from pub food to casual but quirky holes in the wall. Sushi to tapas to american cuisine. Any recommendations?

huh? What's the end game? Promote Tomball, Texas?

She has a bit of the crazy eye.....be careful what you stick in her. You may go to bed alone only to wake in the middle of the night with this loon standing over your bed with a knife....oh wait....never mind. GO FOR IT!!!!

I think that this is precisely what happened. Bond was so over down, bordering on campy at times. And the endless string of 'Bonds' had some real losers in the line up. Name names? Sure. Timothy Dalton has proven himself in other roles but he absolutely sucked as Bond and I wasn't a real fan of Pierce Brosnan lacked something as well. I think the Bond franchise is over and should be allowed to die. Alas, such things happen when, as you noted, you take all the talent from your competitor. You effectively trend toward the center rather than setting off on your own.

Well, I am working in a gantt chart so the secret is click on the box->insert->hyperlink->browse (make sure to change the file type if looking for excel or word) and 'ok'. Done. The tricky part, or tricky for me, was seeing what you had done. You won't see any difference until you scroll your mouse over that box and then the hyperlink symbol will show up under your cursor. Right click on the box to bring up options and then scroll up to the sphere with 3 chain links under it and it takes you to the document. I have gone back and changed the font color on anything I am hyperlinking to so that others will see that there is a source document or reference material if they have any questions. I think there will be lots of people calling me about this 'feature' but I think I can make all the monkeys step into line.

Done. Not quite like wikipedia but a hyperlink nonetheless.

Okay, you guys are smart....well most of you are, so let's see if anyone has experience with this: I have relatively small, uncomplicated spreadsheet that contains data that I would like to reference in a Visio gant chart to wow friends and neighbors. That's not true. I want to be able to present this to the higher ups so that when they look at it and start to ask me questions I can tell them to click on the text and have specific pages of said spreadsheet pop up, thereby answering their questions and proving what a bad-a$$ employee I am. a la wikipedia. Know what I mean? I am also working on reference documents in word that I would like to hyperlink to as well. Problems: -Haven't a fecking clue how to go about this. I RTFM....or at least the resident 'Help' feature but how they show it I end up with a shape, not text. -Our inhouse Visio guy didn't even know that this feature existed. Thanks for any help. Mike PS I have gone to Tek-Tips but I don't see any topics which address this specifically. Off to googly it again.

There's a difference? :-P

Yeah, but you're not Dutch.

craigslist Best of. An apology to scammer guy. http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/stl/1017058283.html

Well, thanks for that Buzz Killington from the District of Downer. :-) Seriously, I had thought that this scam was that you would receive payments then turn around and send them money. By the time you realize that the check you cashed is bouncing higher than your office building, your check to the scammers is all ready cashed as well. A variation on this theme was hitting people subletting to college students, often students themselves.

Waaaaaaay too much free time. But quite well done.

That is some funny sh*t there. I am constantly amazed at how little information is retained within a company in a format that is readily available to all. One of my mandated goals over the last year has been to map our process, complete with source documents to explain why certain steps are taken at specific times, alternative courses of action, and visual timeline so that even a monkey could follow it. With all of the technology around us, we have reverted back to an oral history when it comes to a corporate environment. Try to find a documented foundation for most company policies, or ways of doing things, and you will come up lacking. And this isn't the first time I have had to do this.

Got this amazing offer today. Not sure what my weekly take home will be but hopefully it will be enough to hold me over until that kind Nigerian gentleman can free up those funds. I have all ready applied so don't any of you get the wise idea about trying to hone in on this cash cow. 'Greetin I am Mrs Gina Jane ,Manager Of Good Grace Fabrics.

Thanks Wicky. Should googled that linky-poo but didn't even think about it. Luckily most of the music I had is from cds I own but all that time wasted.....:-(

So, my company laptop's HD went down. IS guy said he copied my files all over but when I go to play any music iTunes says it can't find the song. When I look in the iTunes music folder it shows all the band folders but no songs within those folders. Is all my music gone? Is this some sort of way to restrict pirating music? Does my IS guy know nothing?

Too well fed to be realistic.
