"Where are my desktop icons?" It's going to be a long day... Edit ----------------- I fixed her issues (mostly Firefox settings). She seems happy - for now...

You can never have too much ammo - unless you're swimming, or on fire. - JSOP, 2010

When you pry the gun from my cold dead hands, be careful - the barrel will be very hot. - JSOP, 2013 -

Since Intuit (I used to work for these guys) isn't as forward thinking as I am, there is not Linux version of their tax app. SWMBO kinda panicked, and I told her, "Relax. We can do it on their web site, or if you don't want feel comfortable doing our taxes on the web, I could install TT on my Windows VM, and you can remote desktop into it and use the desktop software there. She seemed to calm down a bit, and we have a month or so before we have to worry about it anyway.

I guess I'm the only one trying to figure out what SWMBO stands for. :laugh: I even looked for clues in the replies, but only get that it's a reference to the wife. Edit: Nevermind, I got it! :laugh:

When I originally bought the Mustang, she didn't get it. When I started modifying it, she didn't get it. When I put the big-ass blower on it, she didn't get it. When I die, my will stipulates that she doesn't get it.

Out of curiosity, I searched for it and the correct definition was the very first link (urbandictionary.com). BTW, I use DuckDuckGo for my search engine. Out of curiosity, I googled t, and it came up as the very first link there, too (inernetslang.com). Yahoo and Bing also returned the urbandictionary link, and in both cases, it was the first search result.
