  1. seconded
  2. This is what I hate about Microsoft...

    Making users log on by using CTRL+ Alt+ Del is a fairly straightforward process on XP and earlier. Just pull up user accounts in the control panel, and toggle the option.

    Win7 Pro? Not so much. Spent 5 minutes with google until I finally found out that you have to open a run box, type "Control Userpasswords2", go to "advanced" tab, then click on require Ctrl-Alt-Del.

    Why change this? Can someone explain the need in hiding this command? I couldn't find a way there through the GUI, had to actually run a command to get to the obscure setting. Reminds me of the opening scene from Hitchhiker's (3:37 mark):

  8. There's a bow in that picture?!? :eek:
  9. I knew you were going to ask that. ;)
  10. Fall

    Today is beautiful fall day. A brisk breeze, comfortable temperatures. The fall colors are bursting in vibrance.
  11. I'd agree with you, but we are a little warm today for what I'd consider nice fall weather.
  12. It is pretty decent weather for building a wikiup, though. I'm really wanting to build a semi-long-term structure for camping in my back yard. Got TWGW's approval for a wattle and daub hut, a wikiup, or small vacation "cabin". Now all I need is to decide on a building style and go for it. I want to build it from what I have available, so I'll probably go with a wikiup or bender. I've got a ton of automotive carpet which would probably make a good insulation layer, and I found my old mailbox to make a small stove out of... Plus, if I build it right, we might be able to use it for halloween next year!
  13. No feel good. :(
    If I had any true friends, they would come over and decapitate me now.
    Absolute misery.

    Question; Is it normal for utility companies to come over and without even knocking on the door put a ladder on your house?

    He woke me up, too. I made sure he knew I wasn't happy.
    He's lucky I have a brain, and I don't have a gun. I thought someone was stealing heating oil.
  14. Sorry, we just pretend to be your friend for the great shave goodies. OK, the truth is we expect you'll be much better in a few days. Perhaps time for a break?

    Also, a utility doing anything more than reading a meter without knocking is unacceptable in my book.
  15. :D I suppose.......
    Of course, I have people breathing down my neck. Who knew shaving was a life-or-death situation? :rolleyes:

    My thoughts exactly.
  16. I maintain a wide variety of weaponry at my house that is good for decapitation, knocking down unwanted ladders, and misc. mayhem. Just ask, and you can borrow any of said items - and what I don't have out right, I can probably make or otherwise acquire. ...just being friendly. :rolleyes:
  17. that sweeney todd fellow knew. I heard he wants lots of styptic and gauze if you have any left
  18. :happy102
    I have stuff that could handle the decapitating, just not necessarily self-decapitation.

    My legs work well for knocking down unwanted ladders.

    "Mayhem" makes me laugh. Reminds me of those car insurance commercials.
    Funny. I heard he was dead. :p
  19. Great, you just ruined it for me
