Why is it every single OT post we have on here, in a matter of 5 or 6 posts, end up wayyyyyy OT from what the original OT was about. I guess thats the definition of a true OT post. A post that never stays on topic, even in its own messages.

Yeah, I'm thinking of planting carrots this year, myself.

No thanks...I think I'll skip the shuttle ride this year. Losing cabin pressure in the vacuum of space doesn't sound fun.

If you go into your "My Computer" file, and click on "The I'm an idiot" folder, it should work just fine. It does for me anyway.

I much prefer heroines over heros or drugs, myself.

Well, it worked for me. Try "The Sleeper" hold BEFORE asking for that pay raise. What helped me was to practice on my wife.

Could you go over that again really slowly? I may need step by step instructions.

Ya know, it' sup to you guys, really. I mean, we can give all the opinions we want, but you have to code it. As long as it works the way we want, I don't personally care if it's xml, flash, or some weird directshow runtime environment.

No.

On a related subject: MC9 really needs a theme song. I suggest this tune, sung to the "Clay Henry" song, on one of those ubiquitous "Jarrod" subway commercials:

Vanselus, Vanselus--he got real depressed from mmjb
He found MC9 now everything's groovy

Vanselus, Vanselus--he has so much love for MC nine
He sheared his head for a really nice shine

Vanselus, Vanselus--he thinks MC 9 is really neat
that's why he shows us his pearly white teeth

Vanselus, Vanselus--MC 9 is so easy like pie
He doesn't even have to open his eyes.

Vanselus, Vanselus--he mourns for MMJB and all it lacks
Now he will only wear dark black

Vanselus, Vanselus....etc.

And Mr. Vanselus, no insult intended, as you appear to be much larger than I am....

tomatoes are very expensive this week

No Zev...

While washing your software with soap and water may make them cleaner, it is not going to get rid of the bugs.

Funny, OT is my wife's nickname.

It was a rainy day in Paris today.

Listening to: 'Something That You Said' from 'Tomorow Today' by 'Al Jarreau' on Media Center 9.0

i wash myself and i go to Bug
One of the main shop here for computer.
On my way back ,i wanted to buy tomatoes.
Cause not only i have bugs ,but there is a mouse on my desk.
Got a parcel from KingSparta and used it.But the mousse did not eat the poison.
Only 2 friend's kids and the cleaning man eated it.
So ,on my way back from cemetery ,i stopped to buy tomatoes because i saw on a forum that KingSparta's stuff mix with fresh tomatoes are a delicatessen for mouses on the desk

And ,as i said ,tomatoes are very expensive right now

Beside this we had a raining day last nigth

Cmagic · « **Reply #14 on:** January 22, 2003, 12:11:05 am »

What kind of cheese does your mouse like ?
Mine used to love "camembert". Recently I changed for an optical model, it shines with a nice red light. That's very nice late at night. I would have prefered a blue light but I did not find any.
Blue light tends to put me in a blue mood once in a blue moon. That's why blue's nice. Note that my desk is black, well, at least when I can see the colour of it. Most of the time it is covered with a layer of various stuff ranging from sheets of paper to pens, CDs, beer can and sometime even tomatoes. I like tomato salad. I do it with small pieces of cheese (feta), olives, echalotte (do'nt know in english) and I make a "vinaigrette" (dressing) with olive oil and balsamic vinegar plus a tea spoon of mustard, add grey pepper and salt, go get a plate and a fork and enjoy.
Now it's time for nap don't you think ?.....

Anybody notice how the sun came up today? Word is that it may disappear tonight, but another rumor has it reappearing tommorow. What a crazy world it is.

Yeah, but to get this one OT someone needs to ask an MC beta question...

But not me. I took my cat for his annual vaccination shots today. According to the vet, hes not fat, just 'big-boned'. I hope he doesnt get a complex now.

zevele10 · « **Reply #17 on:** January 22, 2003, 09:56:53 am »

Got a call from my doctor about my test blood...no good
To much FAT ,around 32.
Look like i would have to take W2K pills and get some NTFS drops for quite a long time

Seriously though, I would like to see the rings around Uranus.

zevele10 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 22, 2003, 10:03:32 am »

Xen-Uno
You are a VERY uncultured person

The rings are around Platon ,not Uranus

That's what makes for a GREAT site... freedom of speech.

Yes, sometimes (maybe most of the time) the posts do get a little off topic but overall I find Interact to be one of the really good things about computers.

If I need some help, somewhere in the various posts there is usually an answer.

Taking the good with the bad, Interact is pretty good overall.

zevele10 · « **Reply #21 on:** January 22, 2003, 10:15:06 am »

long ago was some in topic allowed here in the middle of all the OT

xen-uno · « **Reply #22 on:** January 22, 2003, 10:21:55 am »

Ah yes...Freedom...like the kind you get wearing hot pants in the summer with no underwear.

I am having Rib Eye Stake Tomorrow, Stuffed with a Meat and 3 Cheese Stuffing, Cooked in dish with a Spaghetti type sauce in the oven (about an hour) and covered with mushrooms and mozzarella cheese.

Autoelph · « **Reply #24 on:** January 23, 2003, 07:53:05 am »

But seriously, why do we have to listen to endless speculation and analysis of "the big game", when we all know it will come down to who scores more points while SIMULTANEOUSLY keeping the other team from scoring as many points as they do? Have you seen some of these guys on ESPN who spend a half an hour screaming at each other about this stuff?

Just an example of some good OT fodder.
