You hit one of the reasons we use the system we do. Blocks everything we don't want, but lets us choose to allow the pop-ups we need.

We can't use Mozilla, for compatibility reasons. So we use IE with blocking and keep a clean system that does what we want.

Only 27 in a month or so. But that is after they get through a pop-up-blocking proxy filter I set up. Between the two, I get none.

Been there, done that, but it wasn't the online/offline issue. Like the warden in Cool Hand Luke said, "You got to get your mind right." My early college GPA: about 2.0. My post-Army college GPA: about 3.5. My undergrad degree was a sporadic 5-college 10-year journey.

I have done both. At one point, I was going "to school" full time with 18 credits, but all of them were online. So I just had to go from the bedroom to the computer room in my underwear to go to class. My experiences with online classes: Pros: Hello, flexible schedule. You can do the work whenever you want. You can go as fast as your abilities will let you. You don't have to put up with crappy boring professors in person. It forces you to be more organized in your approach to academics. No wasted commuting time. Cons: They actually assign more work. You have to be disciplined. If your computer crashes, you are so screwed. The interpersonal "networking" isn't as good as you get in person. If you aren't good at communicating in writing without nonverbal body signals, you may struggle. I just got accepted to grad school. In the spring semester, I'm starting up a 4-year dual-degree program. I will take 2 classes per semester, year-round, while working a full-time job. The entire program is online. I can't take day classes, because of my job. I don't want to take evening classes, because I want to have that time with my family. I don't want to do an "executive" (weekend) program, because I could never jump. So I'm going online again. I can do classwork at work some, instead of spending my time here postwhoring, and do some work in the evenings after my daughter has gone to bed.

They had your IP anyway, thanks to Ashcroft's devastation of our personal privacy. As to the contributions, you'll see them when they leave office and we have to pay the bill. Yes, so wrong on many levels. But the only thing to do is vote next election.

The problem is that your "axioms" don't fit the definition of the word. If it were so widely accepted and indisputable, why would nearly everyone replying to you be disagreeing?

Or these folks. They've been kind flipped out recently as well.

Either that or it is some kind of teletype machine tuned in and extracting messages from cosmic radiation.

I hope you aren't holding your breath or fasting while you wait.

Kevin, buddy, time to log out of the forums.

Glad to hear it went well! You have to love when it goes smoothly and you walk away with a positive feeling.

Bitchin' sarcasm!

I wasn't thinking about you, or about valium.

Justin, Maybe it is time for us to give it a break for awhile and let the medications kick in. 'k?

You are misunderstanding what he said, and what the facts are. There are no proven direct ties between Al Qaeda and Iraq. If you disagree, show us the evidence. The indirect tie is the United States. We have attacked both entities for various reasons. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" is not a logically-proven fact. Plenty of examples counter it.

You don't hear the voices?

Mine is only 16 months, but she'll eat just anything we give her. And I don't stick to "Lunchables". A few apparently unusual things she loves that most kids don't: spicy Thai soup with coconut milk pickles barbeque black bean soup hummus eggplant guacamole grilled salmon etc. She is like a little 21-pound garbage disposal.

Greek salad with chicken and some Cheetos. You?

Good luck and all at the interview, but honestly, I am more interested in what Mujie will be wearing at her photo shoot than your power suit. I'm sure you understand.

Do the little green men object to their ideas being translated into English, or do they accept it because the cosmic mind control rays are hitting us anyway?

Since a lot of my background is Russian, I'm still looking for the Russian continent. Once I find it, I'll have to start redrawing maps to reflect my solution to the apparent Asian-European continental quagmire.

Yes. I will make my stronghold in Australia, then move out slowly to conquer the world.

If we could all be Franco-Americans, we would be pasta in little cans.

The whole point is that so much of what you are saying is false that we have no way of knowing what is a typo and what just stupid, but exactly what you intended to say. Please pardon our confusion.
