Mares by definition are nightmares ... especially pony mares

What does that have to do with his post? :suss: The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

There is so many oddball security things to setup before you can even get an asp.net page to load, I will explain it later when i have time. I had a little experience a few weeks ago of getting our web application to run on IIS7 on Vista. Quite a lot of faffing around. However, we've rolled back to XP for the time being for other reasons.

If Golden Palace gets into it, then "all bets are off" :laugh: But on a serious side, the auction is for two tickets to the world premiere of her new movie "He's Just Not That Into You" (that should give you a clue about your chances with her ;P )... with a possible meet and greet from her ... you get a local limo ride to the premiere .. you are responsible for getting to either NYC or LA yourself (if you don't live in the area already) ... on the plus side, the winning bid is tax deductible since 100% is going to a charity that Scarlett supports. She will probably be disappointed when her auction closes for less than the "Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese Sandwich" and "Your business logo tattooed on my boobs" auctions awhile back (both won by Golden Palace). :doh: Steve

Q: Is my bid tax deductible? A: Your winning bid is tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Please consult with your tax adviser for more information. at least it is tax deductible... if you are winning of course ;P

Another rather amusing one is typeing in "French military victories" and clicking 'i'm feeling lucky' :-D

I like snow, but when it snows, it will be a bit cold, so I just don't know if i love winter. Good good study, day day up !
