LOL I am sooooooo sorry to ruin this for everyone. I have to "present" this to someone I know. I am so ashamed. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Not only is Dave the biggest post whore on (and off) the planet, now he expects us to READ them too. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Yeah, what he said. Good luck man. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Congrats... Yes a lot of beer is about to be purchased. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

"man-whoring" I love it. Beats the #^%@ out of my "DT's Cooking site" that I HAD to create. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

LOL I just finished an HTML class. 14 F'in weeks of it. The subject material was a joke and the assignments were easy but the teacher was pathetic. She listed every possible thing that she could use to take points off of an assignment. We had to highlight various portions of the text version of the files. (table tags and the like), the pages has to be exact order, blah blah blah. My final "project" was done in about 2 hours. This was just me fucking off picking the colors and background for the most part. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Yes, thank you for the pics. Its always nice to see someone having fun. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Damn that hurt soooooo bad it was funny. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Yeah sorta, While they do not self replicate (ala virus) the lurk in memory and periodically "steer" your browser to some ad. (usually porn) Some of the most common are Xupiter (punks), ISTbar (bastards), Rapidblaster (punk bastards). I highly recommend the following link to check for such "add ons". http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/ It will detect a wide variety of parasites with information on how to remove them. ------- D.T.

LOL Hey Ed. My wife and daughter were spouting off the names of the finalist and I honestly had NO idea who they were talking about. I fail to see the excitement. I mean what does it have to do with my life? In short, you are NOT alone.

I would love to find the rat bastards that thought up those "additional" IE toolbars, adware, popup ad servers, and the like. While I have a Virus scanner AND a popup blocker (which my daughter turns off for reasons unknown) I still got parasite applications. I just spent the better part of an hour dredging through the different varients in order to find which one of the ISTbar to tear out plus the xxxtoolbar.com crap AND the rapidblaster piece of #$^@. FUCK. Someone is due and ass kicking. My daughter now has "point blank" instructions to NOT turn off the protections software. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Yes, please give some of us "low timers" some detail. As to my personal note: Fuck those punks, you did well. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

I don't think it was the one with the bike to plane transfer. Its the one where Bond "interupts" the blackmarket arms deal, steals the jet just before the missle hits, then wins a dog fight by ejecting his copilot into the bottom of the other jet. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Wasn't that the airport at the beginning of one of the Bond films? ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

(long but worth it I think) A school bus driver wanted to make a impression to the students on his new route so over the summer he painted the bus with Sesame Street characters. On the first day of school he set out on his route with the first stop at a large cattle ranch. He pops open the door to see two little girls, the first says "My name's Patty" followed by the second saying "That’s my name too." "Well Patty and Patty, get on the bus" he says, and off they went. At the second stop he opens the door to see a cute little boy who says "My names Ross and my mom says I'm Special". "You are special and that’s why you get this pretty bus" says the drive. Once aboard they start off again. A the third stop driver opens the door to see a strange little boy holding a big block of cheese. The little boy simply says "My names Lester" and plops himself in the front row of seats. As the driver is closing the door he sees Lester kick off one shoe and starts picking at a bunion on his foot. Aside from feeling disgusted the driver realizes that he is now running late and needs to hurry to the next stop. Having floored the gas pedal the drive, for obvious reasons, gains the attention of the highway patrol how pull him over. The officer charges up the the door yelling at the driver for endangering the children with his reckless driving and demands "Whats going on here". The driver glances in the mirror at the kids, turns to the officer, and calmly explains: Can't you see officer, its 2 all beef Patty's, special Ross, Lester cheese pickin' bunions on a Sesame Bus. {groan} ------- D.T.

Yesterday where I work there was an incident. The incident (which must remain unnamed) was a big deal which required a company called Boots and Coots. (hint hint hint ) Anyway, I wrote the software system that is used to track all events of this type. Our site management was at the corporate office at a meeting with the CEO and UPPERmanagement. In this meeting our managers had their laptops and because they were logged into the network there receive an autonotification of the event. From a great distance they were able to monitor the activities and comment on same. All in the presents of the CEO and staff who seemed very impressed. I just got the biggest "ATA-BOY" I could imagine. (I have yet to see cash) ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

Yeh these #$^& things are a nightmare. There is one near Hemel Hempstead and I just about freaked out. Its bad enough that I tend to drive on the righthand side of the road (well most of the time) and then I got to one of these... ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

I had this flashback to the movie Airplane II where all the passengers where lined up to smack the hysterical women. Of course we would all be lined up to spank Andrea. Again... ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

I recall being so drunk once that in an attempt to open the refrigerator I "let go" of the drink in my hand to reach for the handle. I remember thinking that I expected the glass to stay where it was, in midair. Odd how we remember somethings... ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

A GREAT site that can scan (through your browser) for bull#%^ like this is http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/. Forgot to mention, the site will also give details on how to remove anything it finds. I have used this in the past with much success. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

I have searched the DZ forum for some Bungie Jumping stats to no avail. I have found the following thread but there was nothing on bungie jumping... I have a friend/coworker who refuses to think about skydiving but has bungie'd TWICE. Any help would be great. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

I was that guy for my wife. That was 16 short years ago and may still be true I guess. Too funny! ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy

When driving in the UK I had to use the restroom. I found a roadside rest area that had a McDonalds (suprised?), an arcade, a small shop and a large public restroom. I walked in and saw a long row of stalls which I did not need. Quick scan of the room lead me to an "alcove" type area which was the urinal area... This was the most bizarre thing I had seen. There were NO urinals at all. Imagine your in a room that is tiled on 3 sides, the fourth wall is the opening to the "alcove" room. The 3 walls are tiled ceiling to floor and the floor is a rubber mat material. The walls however extend DOWN past the floor level you are standing on to create a small trough about 6 inch in diameter. You simply walk up close to the wall and go... There were about 10 guys in there just pissing on the wall. It was damn strange. ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy
