Alert? YOU offered them cheese. So not only do you fraternise with the enemy, you are even steering their thread in the same direction. YOU are the one creating the competition!

Just wondering...or wandering.....do you ever come directly to this thread and ask yourself "What is a nice guy like me doing here?"

What do you take me for?! Yes, I offered them cheese - but would have feed them Velveeta. How evil is that!

Amazing how fuzzed up people can become over a word.

Nope.

This is my home.

All of you are my friends.

There is no other place for me.

I've got to get off here....Mrs Rupert's computer is down and I need my guru....my TT needs to go in the shop for service before our trip....and I need groceries for dinner......so much to do, I have to snap out of my trance!

The misery....the suffering...the scrambled brain. 2 1/2 hours on the phone with Dell regarding Mrs Rupert's computer...still in warranty. The techs were pleasant, but I could hardly understand their brand of English. 30 + minutes of that time was on hold while they "researched".

Running test after test ..over and over. Funny thing...when they offered an extended warranty...and I bought it (with Mrs Rupert's CC) they were able to get it up and running like new in about 3 minutes.

Got a splitting headache, but Mrs Rupert just came home and her computer is up and running....she is all smiles, and offered to cook dinner.

I could have used some "Racer help" with potty mouthing.....

Some days.....
