That's like saying a vacuum cleaner does a lousy job of
toasting
bagels, so you're going to shop for a better vacuum
cleaner.
I don't know about you, but I toast my bagels on the
muffler of my
lawn tractor.

Or at this time of year, my big snow blower.
Yeah, but that makes perfect sense. Not a vacuum cleaner,
though.
Why not? There is heat generated by the motor - seems to me
to be a
pretty simple adaptation.
There was a paperback published some years ago that certainly
would
interest Tom if not others. It was a book of roadkill recipes.
These
were recipes you could use to heat up on the radiator of your
car
while you are driving.

Now, there are other roadkill recipes around, but these were
for meals
you could prepare while you travel. On your car engine.
Yeah anyway...back to the subject. Why is Outlook Express
awful?
Just type "outlook express problems" into your web browser and
have fun.
I haven't had a single problem with OE since I began using it
several
years ago for email & news. I want to know what YOU have
PERSONALLY
WITNESSED.
Outlook vi-rii and Outlook troublefiles that little twerps around
the
world create just for fun.
The virii got into the computer because the user didn't properly
maintain
and configure his/her antivirus software.

You can always tell when someone is really an expert. "Virii" is not
only not an English word, it's not a Latin word either.

The plural of virus in English is viruses.

As far as I know, virii is Martian for "potato salad".

I have been unable to find any other references from reputable
sources, or should I say, "sourcii"?
D'oh.

Gee.

Whiz.

No.

Fun.

Allowed.

Virii is a fun word, dumbo.
A "fun word"?

Cite please!

Hmm... your cite agress with me!

http://membres.lycos.fr/asle/virii.2.html


This is just some uneducated dope's personal page where they don't
know that the correct plural of virus is viruses. Probably wears his
baseball hat backwards, too.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=virii



They also agree with me, as does EVERY legitimate dictionary ever
published.


Next time, check your chops before you challenge mine.



I think you just chopped yourself off at the knees (kneeii?)




I said it was a "fun" word. It isn't my problem if you don't get it.


No, I asked you for a legitmate cite, and you can't seem to produce
one. Instead you provided 3 links to pages that more or less agree
with me that the use of "virii" indicates a certain lack of education
or expertise. I think you have pretty much confirmed where you fit in.

Can you at least provide a legitimate cite describing "fun word"? For
bonus points, the cite can include virii as an example of a "fun
word".



He provided examples of people using the word because they felt like it.
Unfortunately, they're all wrong. The word is actually viruletti, the plural
of viruletto.
