Nice way to start a whole new thread. I hope Eve had a belly button, I
have always thought they are so sexy.....

I bet you think toe cheese is sexy too.

Nah, but I do love to play with a belly button and give my wife a nice
sexy foot and toE massage. Don't get me started or I will have to go in
and wake her up with some sensual foreplay. I have some great foreplay
you may want to try. Walk slowly and quietly into the room. With a
swift firm action, slap her upside the head and yell "HEY MARIA, YOU AWAKE?"

This problem sometimes occurs because the sites in question examine
something called a 'User Agent String', and then either block the
browser completely if it does not recognize the version, or serve up an
inappropriate page that will not work in that version of the Web
browser.

Firefox, as most browsers, has the ability to spoof the User Agent
String. Why not just use Firefox and tell the problem web sites that you
are using IE.

You can get instructions for changing the Firefox User Agent he

I have started using firefox for 90% of my surfing. Since most of the
people in rec.boats use the internet, I was really just posting a news
article about problem that many people have found about the new IE7.

I did think Dr. Dos was still around, and it does have a nice simple GUI
Tom would like.

What I do know is that you have claimed to own a platoon party boat and
a bubble boat. Which one is your imaginary boat 'du jour'?


Nope, never claimed any such thing..............


Makes sense as I doubt you own a boat.
Regarding the houseboat thing............ROTFLMAO..........folks here
know I never claimed to own any such thing.
I have posted pictures of my boats at Lee's site.
I have yet to see any pictures of your boats there Reggie (or whatever
your name is).


I have to admit, I never followed up on the link Harry posted showing what
he called a really tacky house. Do you still have that link?

If one can show I own a 'really tacky house' based on a satellite footprint
image of it........then so be it.

It is, however, one of the nicer 'tacky houses' in this 15 year old
development and most likely out of your price range.

As you have run the gambit of attacking me, my wife, my kids, my kid's
computers, my boats and my house...........what is next, my cats?

Get help Reggie.




Cats? How many? We've got too many.

Harry, did you post a picture of Jimh's house? I remember a picture Jimh
posted of what he described as his house. Not a good picture, as you
commented. And, of course, you made several comments about his house which
were not very nice.

Shame.

You can run linux via a GUI. And if you want to blame anyone, blame Xerox.
