I honestly have no clue! I voted on all of them. My score on that one was identical to Brad's, so the average of the 3 would have ended up the same.

Reply to Problem.. Need help? in Windows XP JoeUser Forums

What type of Video card do you have? If it has it's own fan, those have a tendency to quit working then the card will overheat and the computer will shut down. Does this happen after it's been off awhile? If it does, then it's not a heat issue. You could also have a Motherboard or other component that is dying or just simply a bad install of something....or a Virus.

Reply to Global Warming Prediction Tracker in Pure Technology Stardock Forums

[quote]That's one of the reasons why supporters of "Global Warming" have switched to "Climate Change" so now they are covered whether it gets hot or cold.[/quote] Funny thing about all this is that Michigan used to get a lot of snow when I was a kid. When I was growing up, it wouldn't be unusual to get up in the morning and hardly be able to tell where the cars in the driveway were due to it snowing so hard the night before. Then, that slowly changed. Now it's looking

[quote]So yeah Companies most times dont have that option to stand up to the unions unless they are ready for the reprocusions of such things and those things are usually not a good name for your company.... even if what is said is not totally factual[/quote] We had that happen not that long ago with the Detroit News and Free Press. They ended up with all non-Union workers in the end. To this day, there are still people boycotting the paper. The company had two optio

[quote] Maybe that should be the first lesson learned upon reorganization - spread out.[/quote] Well, I'm not sure that works out well. Michigan is pretty self sufficient with metal if it needs to be. There is still an awful lot of iron ore that travels up and down the great lakes to supply iron works. That's how the big three took root here, after-all ;) [quote]No it's not all the Unions fault, as I just pointed out, but they also play a part with their dema

Reply to All Gave some, Some gave all in History Stardock Forums

[quote]The way America treats her veterans is disgraceful! America should be ashamed of herself for such treatment of brave men and now women that put their lives on the line to keep America free, so lemon-heads can blather on about how evil and terrible America is with no fear of reprisal.[/quote] Other than sensationalized media, I've never seen or heard anyone treat vets or servicemen in any disrespectful way. I think saying that "America" should be ashamed is a bit false.&nbs

Hoss is actually dressed up- she's being me. She's missing a blond wig, but she's wearing my sweater, carrying my coffee cup, and is wearing a PM 2008 button with my bobblehead picture on it. I wasn't there that day (was on vacation).

Goin' to Disney! in Travel JoeUser Forums

You won't see me around here for a week since I will be at DISNEY WORLD!!! Woot! We always promised my daughter that we would take her when she turned 10. She turns 10 on Saturday, so off we go! I have never been to either Disney park, so this is really exciting. This is also the first full week vacation that I have taken in over 13 years, so I'm pretty geeked. I'm goin' to Disney! I'm goin' to Disney!!!!!!!

[quote]Some women work in environments where they take lunches with friends and have periods of the day where they have little stress and little activity/responsibility.[/quote] That exists??? Dude, I want THAT! My job is not like that at all. I hardly ever go out of the office during the day, and the only time I work only 40 hours is when I take time off.

Reply to Do Mothers Have Wasted Educations? in Parenting JoeUser Forums

I don't think that education is ever wasted. However, I think this statement is quite bold and not always true: [quote]"I guarantee your daughters work four times as hard as they would in the workforce."[/quote] I've done both. I worked. I then stayed home for 8 months, and then I went back to work. Having two full time working adults while raising a child (we have only one due to the fact that we both work) is not a cake walk. When I stayed home, I

Reply to Coffee, teeth, pumpkins and death in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Coffee grinder broke? Why are you here blogging about it rather than out getting a new one???? LOL I gave up coffee for awhile. I then decided that life wasn't worth it without it. I have so few "bad" things I can do that I need to keep one. Yeah, I don't know what's up with the death thing. There seems to be a lot of things that die this time of year. I really hate Fall anymore. I now have two dogs that died in the Fall. Grandpa

Reply to Obama's a socialist, let's be real in Politics Stardock Forums

[quote]If Senator Obama is a socialist, you, sir, are a fascist.[/quote] No, he is a capitalist- the mere enemy of socialism. I'm in the same boat as him- I am not a "Republican" or a "Democrat, I'm a capitalist. I like to create my own destiny by working my butt off to make money. However, I'm not too cool with working my butt off so that I can give it to the government so that they can do whatever they want with it.
