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!

Next time, check your chops before you challenge mine.

The creation of plural forms by tongue-in-cheek stretching of English
plural 'rules' is popular among hackers, sometimes as a way of marking a
term as community jargon. See boxen and mouses for the most visible
examples. Other examples, whether widely used or not, are easily
recognized and deciphered, and it is well understood that these
irregular (or hyper-regular) plurals are not errors but examples of geek
humor.

As you pointed out, it is not accepted english, but street talk, HEY DOG!
