  1. They make a heat tape for mobile homes with similar problems where the water supply line may be exposed to freezing temperatures. The tape wraps around the pipe and then plugs into a standard outlet. Insulation may be another fix, but hind sight is 20/20. Big Ed
  2. Court order says no more tequila for me. Big Ed
  3. You might also try tapping your toes together in free fall just so your brain can figure out where your feet and legs are. Big Ed
  4. There have been a few threads on here about this subject. You might try doing a search and seeing what you can find. Big Ed
  5. How about posting the names of the parents of the kids who are failing. I think that would motivate a few people to make sure their kids are actually trying to improve. Big Ed

    Neptune IR Port

    I think I paid $20 too much for mine. Make sure you have the right drivers if your using XP. Big Ed
  7. Are you referring to the OSU and Michigan couple on the couch? Their commercials are usually pretty funny. Big Ed
  8. I'll make it clicky for you. Big Ed
  9. I had some Black Dog Ale by Spanish Peaks a while back and it was pretty good. Usually I would drink Michelob Light or if I have to drive, Coors Light. Big Ed
  10. Here's a little reason I'm not jumping. Weather Sucks! Did you see the weekend forecast, snow and rain. I love Ohio this time of year. Big Ed

    Neptune IR Port

    I got my USB Fast Infra-red Adapter yesterday to update my Neptune. The instructions say just plug it in and Win XP will automatically install the correct driver. I thought that was easy enough. I plugged the infrared adapter into the USB port and windows found the driver and installed it. I next tried to install the Ircomm2k software and that is when the trouble started. Ircomm2k gave me an error message and told me to uninstall the driver and restart the computer before attempting another installation. I uninstalled Ircomm2k, restarted the computer and tried to install it again. Same error. I uninstalled the Ircomm2k driver again and restarted the computer. I next tried the driver cd that came with the Ir adapter and ran the setup program on the cd. I thought I was getting somewhere when the driver on the USB Ir adapter cd installed and instructed me to plug the adapter into the USB port and the OS would find the correct driver and install it. This didn’t work either. I tried downloading the drivers from the manufacturers web site for the Ir adapter. This didn’t work either. I went back to the SigmaTel website and read the tech support manual and that’s where I discovered the problem. The built in driver in Win XP is not the correct driver for the Ir adapter. At this point it’s midnight and I have to get up at 5:30 a.m. Today, I took the Ir adapter to work and tried it on my XP system at work. I installed the driver from the cd provided with the Ir adapter before I plugged it in. I next plugged the Ir adapter into the USB port and then manually selected the driver from the adapter cd and it worked. I next installed the Ircomm2k software and selected COM 4 and then I installed the Neptune updater software from Alti-2 and all was well. At this point I was bummed. My system at work was working the way it should and the system at home was not. I went home and did a system restore to a time before I plugged the Ir adapter in without installing the driver from the cd. I then restarted the system at home and installed the driver from the cd without plugging the Ir adapter in. Then I plugged the Ir adapter into the USB port and manually selected the driver from the cd provided with the adapter and it worked like a charm. Next, I installed the Ircomm2k software and the Neptune updater software and I was good to go. I followed the simple instructions with the Neptune updated and now I have the latest version. Sorry this is so long, but I wasted about 3 hours trying to get this thing to work. In the end, I should have installed the drivers from the cd first and I could have avoided all of the problems.

    I'm 23 today!

    Happy B-day. Age 23 was a good year, enjoy. Big Ed
  15. If you showed that guy a mop, a donut and a vagina, do you think he could pick out the vagina? The day he sees a vagina for the first time, he is going to throw that storm trooper cookie jar right out the window. Big Ed
  16. Raven Orange. Mine looks like a reserve but it stands out. Oh yeah, the jump suit helps too.
  17. I didn't know they broke up, then again, I don't really care. It's trash TV but it is funny stuff. Big Ed

    Cleaning Ladies

    Yeah, $40 every other Friday. Chase does a great job and she lets the dogs out while she is cleaning. It is nice to come home to a clean house. Big Ed
  19. I had it last month and I'm in Ohio. Went to the doc and he said just let it run its course. It sucked and it lasted about 5 - 6 days. Big Ed
  20. DUI's are big money makers for most police departments. With court costs and fines, you looking at roughly $3,500 and that does not include the lawyer. Once the cop realized you were not intoxicated he cut you loose, they don't like doing paperwork, or at least most of them don't enjoy doing paperwork and then going to court on their day off. Big Ed
  21. We have a keg fridge in our office. Fridays at 3pm we start to drink. Oh yeah, there is an indoor pool as well. Big Ed
  22. Did you see average joe 1? They did the same things but with not as many ringers? In the end, the girl picked the ringer. Big Ed
