It's another variation of the Nigerian, where they will not release the cheque without a "handling" fee to cover security costs.

Jason, Glad to hear you had a great weekend. I agree that its hard to deny your kids when they are having that much fun. Many times, the most fun you can have is when it is spontaneous. I spent my weekend in a Motorcycle training course, so I didn't see much of my kids. Hogan

If she works there, no matter what her job is, they have to provide a safe working environment. If they haven't done that then they have to pay up. Workers Comp is a standard cover all business need to have, if the strip club didn't have it then that's their bad luck. My employer has Workers Comp and I mostly sit in front of a computer and make trips on to client sites for installations and the like. Not likely to hurt myself doing this line of work but it could happen and I need to be covered. If not do I then sue the owners of the company for any injuries I suffer due to work or even just at work?

No. Coffee is a fucking hot beverage generally made with boiling water 100/212 degrees depending on your scale of choice. Said stupid old biddy spilled it on herself and using some wonderful USA logic a jury found McDonalds guilty cause the coffee was too hot. I think it had something to do with the atmosphere in that particular restaurant being about 3 times normal allowing ther coffee to be hotter than normal. ;) Pole dancing, no matter what you think of the people doing it, is a physical job that the strip club owners need people to do to get customers in the door.

Why not just ask wife what she likes to do? Possibly she can turn an hobby that she is good at and make money out of it. I would start with that and then check out a local book store on starting up a business, etc. the work from home stuff only makes money for ppl sucking other into buying this useless stuff from them... nothing is free, and there are no short-cuts in life, if that was true we would all doing it =) She could take up freelance photography, art design, or writing to name a few if she has any talent in any of there areas? She need to get in touch with others that may already be doing this and making money. She could join a local meetup, or support group, google ppl and network! --- Yours Truly, The One and Only! web: devmentor.org Design, Code, Test, Debug

A lot of people seem to miss the sticky at the top of the forum that explains it, and just not know what the CLI means. I'm only telling you because more people will see your posts in the right forums. This forum is a ghost town, I just come here to redirect people to the right forum, and not many people ask or answer C++/CLI questions.

"You're going to tell me my guess is wrong regardless of what I post." Yes,this was not the message. You are wrong. lol!! <--I was about to post this you see.:-D Jemmy : Deadline?

I tried FontCreator a few months back, and was very happy with it: http://www.high-logic.com/fontcreator.html[^] best, James

Give a try to a Graphire Tablet with mouse. They are pretty cool and do not have batteries, cords (on the mouse that is) and are light weight (some modules you might want to remove a weight they put in to make it heavier). These work great for a mouse and still gives you a form of drawing tablet. http://www.wacom.com/graphire/[^] Rocky <>< Blog Post: Windows Live Authentication - Easy Stuff!

I agree. For non-MSI installations, InnoSetup is really good. :)

Dang. I should have grabbed the camera when you were at the hotel. I can honestly say, though, that you haven't changed perceptably in 2 1/2 years. Still the young, dashing fellow in that picture. "A Journey of a Thousand Rest Stops Begins with a Single Movement"

Exactly. This statement was never false.
