Reply to wincustomize is NOT a waste of time in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Just to let you know, I have written everything I have written while laughing my ass off. You see, to me, it really doesn't matter. After loosing 3 people in my life to heart attacks, and having had one of my own 3 years ago that left me recovering for nearly 2 months, I don't take anything seriously. <img src="http://

Can't really tell you anything about life except this. The people in my life who have now gone on to whatever lies after, all spent way too much time sweating the little, unimportant, and relatively useless things like this. They forgot to just enjoy life. They forgot that they should be here trying to do some good, not worrying about who was the most recent person to say something that got their nose out of joint. What do I know about life? Not much, but I can tell you what life

One little side not Wise. During one of our conversations we talked about doing roofs. So, of course, I had to go out and take a look at mine. It was getting real near the line between "water tight" and "leaks like a seive". So, as a result, this Wednesday, a contractor will be here, ripping off my old shingles (3 courses, which is the maximum in these parts, according to code) and then putting o

Negative on the project. The joints, especially the elbows, need a few weeks off. I might finally spend the next little while creating a new skin....finally! I lost my Muse for a bit. That's why I started the whole remodelling project. It gets my creative juices flowing again. I think I've found my Muse again. Time to start skinning!

An alliteration is the use or repetition of a succession of words with the same initial letter or sound. You said. "Wise, you c an't c age a c at." That's was an alliteration. As a joke, I said " a s a lways, a n a wsome a lliteration elvee."... a lso a n a lliteration. (so was that l ast l ine.)((as was that.)

I know, it's sad to think that someone out there has fitted us into a 'catagory', but, as long as in our own minds and hearts we see ourselves in no catagory, then that's what matters. P.S. When we first brought home our 'fur child' Franny, we asked her to name herself. She said 'woof'. I thought that was too easy. Eventually, after about a month, she just became 'Franny'. <img src="ht

GM, it is difficult not to resort to catagorizations. Remember, there are real people on the other end. Each one is an individual. Each one lives within not only their own reality but the realities of those around them in everyday life. It is most likely that these people that surround them put them into catagories. They, in turn, put those people into catagories. To expect that by entering this medium called the internet, all that catagorizing can be turned off, is expecting too much. I

Don't still have my first computer, but I did manage to find a picture of it, along with a little write-up. This is pretty much how it looked, set up in my room, all those years ago. : http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=185

Strange anomaly after installing SP1 in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Installed SP1, then rebooted as requested. Everything looked good. WindowBlinds continued to work. Last skin I was using before the update loaded up no problem. Then I opened Control Panel . The window showed just 8 empty colums, with the one on the right end having an arrow at the top of it. I pressed the arrow and it gave me a menu. But there was nothing on the menu that would help. So, I closed Control Panel . Immediately, the taskbar turned black. I could
