  1. Thanks gunner, i will give it a shot.
  2. My fiance's comp has been acting funny* so she set me loose to figure it out. She can't get Vista updates and when she tries she gets an '8008005 error'. I have dropped Malwarebytes on it, found one problem and fixed it. Otherwise clean. Google has told me that it could be a general Registry issue so I d/l Easy Cleaner and when ran it found 394 errors but could only delete 374 of them. I tried moving down the queue to delete one by one but no joy, I can't purge them. Any other free, good and safe registry cleaners out there? Thanks for any help. *by 'funny' I mean it won't run iTunes any more and her iPod is locked up. Not sure if these issues are related or not but that is what started this whole dance.
  3. It's called CAPITALISM you proto-Canuckian-commie....and it seems that Capitalism has had a banner year in '08; gas prices artificially inflated by speculation, Bernie Madoff and the $50b swindle, housing house of cards collapsing, etc.
  4. Ask any housewife.....zing......POW Thank you, I will be here all week....try the veal!
  5. But if you grab one now, she will be 40 if you die in 22 years.....and won't you be done with her at that point? Plus all the husband-ly duties might actually get you in shape. Or outright kill you. Either way, problem solved.
  6. Bring back the stock for greedy louts like this one.
  7. Yes, thank you orwell. gunnergoz, Think Mad Max with mutants in Washington, DC with quirky characters and lots of slow motion, gory death blows. Don't knock it 'til you try it. Bet you would get sucked in by the storyline. It has held my attention for over a month now and I could see going back and playing it again as a 'bad' guy.
  8. I now have my power armor and pulse weapons but can't find a single bobblehead. I routinely make multiple trips back to a site to clean it all so it's not like I am failing to look for gear. Are the bobble heads a purchased item?
  9. When I see more in business suits than in sweat suits, I will know we have turned the corner.
  10. The fact that one is carrying a concealed firearm, in close proximity to a whole mess of people, is a dangerous situation. Especially, as in this case, the one carrying said firearm is at best a rank amateur with firearms, or at worst a sociopath with a penchant for violence. The fact he only wounded himself in this escapade is sheer providence. By your snippy tone, I assume by 'civilised parts' you are referring to the Gawd forsaken areas that surround the greatest nation on earth. feh, you can keep yer fancy, limp-wristed, Euro sensibilities and I'll take an extra box of 9mm.
  11. To pick a nit...she actually stabbed her foot instead of thrusting the sword into the ground. Why was she stabbing Mother Earth with pointy metal bits? Why, to celebrate her recent good luck....which ended with a pointy metal bit in her foot. Huzzah!!!!
  12. The AR-10/ Stoner. 7.62x51....or were you thinking 7.62x39mm?
  13. How does one get Power armor training? I have been a scavenging fool and have a locker bursting with sets but I can't equip it.
  14. ...defuse the bomb and voila! The way I did it was a bit more complicated...... Spoiler!!!!! - - - - - - - - - I talked to the sheriff, got the defuse bomb quest but then bumped into a guy in the bar that wanted me to blow up Megaton with said bomb. I reported this to the sheriff who, in the act of arresting that guy, got hisself dead. After I later defused the bomb I went to the sheriff's orphaned son (way to go, Mike) and he gave me the key to my house in Megaton.
  15. So it was an ad campaign and not some roided douche trying to get his gal back? Horrifying no matter what the purpose.
  16. Yep, found it. It was upstairs. It was a in a spot I hadn't bothered looking. Normally just run in, hit the hay, rummage through my weapons and armor lockers, off to sell off junk, re-kit and back to the wastelands. Oh my, it's a damn addictive bit.
  17. I asked the servo bot. I actually had to start over because I raided the armory and the bot followed me back to my house. Poor servant bot got wasted in the cross fire. I have clicked on the thing, both inside and outside of my house. WTF!?!?!? When I highlight that item (under 'misc.') all I can do is drop it. this sux.
  18. Does anyone know how to use the house features? I bought the infirmary one but can't figure out how to install it in my house.
  19. This is my favorite so far: 'Here here. Watching some lovesick hayseed carry rocks and buck hay? [Mike], there's a lynch mob after you. Cheers, Steve'
  20. By the by, good folks. I suggest you do NOT forward this to family or friends. You might get some less than desirable emails. Some examples: Jeremy 'I can’t believe you would waste almost 8 minutes of my life on this crap. WTF Mike! Gay porn?!' Lucas then replies 'My sentiments exactly!!!! Except I got to say it to his face last night. I want my 7 minutes back and I think we should beat it out of him!! We have to protect our kids from Mike. I thought he was coming out of the closet and hitting on me at the same time. It's a lot more ockward(sic) working with him now' On the upside Debra asked, 'What about the girl? Did he find her?' But overall not well received. I thought it was funny as hell.
  21. Gone south? With a start like that it had no where to go but down. I have been sharing this video with friends....now I have even less friends than before.
  22. Do any of you have experience with making successful FoIA requests? I would like to see the service records of still living relative. He and I have spoken about this but he seems reticent to revisit his past. I suspect I could get his signature if pressed. Being rather vague intentionally as his story is one that I have a hard time believing and would like some verification one way or the other.
  23. Huh? What happened to the link to the crappy video? That was some funny ****.
