Am I missing something, I did get a new computer a few days ago, haven't really gone over it yet. It must be running some Microsoft OS. GMT -0800 is Pacific Time. Oh, I probably didn't set that up when I got it up and running, didn't see it as too important. I will fix it before Harry thinks his three months hard drive and ram "server" setup makes him a superior network specialist.... snerk Harry is the best at everything there is. Just ask him. -- WAFA the newsgroup liar free! |

Opinions vary, cultural customs don't mean much when you are ignorant of them. If you are going to bow to one monarch shouldn't you bow to all of them? Depends on the culture? A king is considered royalty. Shouldn't you show royalty respect? It was probably better than when Bush, Sr. puked on that guy's lap... which I had to admit was pretty funny. -- Nom=de=Plume |

We are very good at snapping our fingers and expecting things to get done. -- Nom=de=Plume |

The funniest part was his slithering down behind the table. I wonder if the guy saved his pants, like Monica saved her dress. |
