This is the first time I have ever seen and electric pocket warmer ( Works off batteries ) Also got a Balaclava and a pair of gloves. he had to really do some shopping to come up with this being he is from Florida. ;D Thanks FishinDaddy I can use it all.

I uninstalled Norton and installed Trend Micro. Now my PC has come to a crawl, I couldn't hardly get on BR. I ran AD Ware and Trend Micro and they found 212000+ virus and glitches on my PC. Last night when I uninstalled Norton it said that I had 211000 viruses quarantine and asked if I wanted them removed. I clicked on the yes button and guess where they turned them lose at. I guess this is how they do payback. I can see this costing me a lot of money. :-[

As a joke, my brother used to hang a pair of panty hose over his fireplace before Christmas. He said all he wanted was for Santa to fill them. What they say about Santa checking the list twice must be true because every Christmas morning, although Jay's kids' stockings were overflowed, his poor pantyhose hung sadly empty. One year I decided to make his dream come true. I put on sunglasses and went in search of an inflatable love doll. They don't sell those things at Wal-Mart. I had to go to an adult bookstore downtown. If you've never been in an X-rated store, don't go. You'll only confuse yourself. I was there an hour saying things like, "What does this do? You're kidding me! Who would buy that?" Finally, I made it to the inflatable doll section. I wanted to buy a standard, uncomplicated doll that could also substitute as a passenger in my truck so I could use the car pool lane during rush hour. Finding what I wanted was difficult. Love Dolls come in many different models. The top of the line, according to the side of the box, could do things I'd only seen in a book on animal husbandry. I settled for Lovable Louise. She was at the bottom of the price scale. To call Louise a doll took a huge leap of imagination. On Christmas Eve and with the help of an old bicycle pump, Louise came to life. My sister-in-law was in on the plan and let me in during the wee morning hours. Long after Santa had come and gone, I filled the dangling pantyhose with Louise's pliant legs and bottom. I also ate some cookies and drank what remained of a glass of milk on a nearby tray. I went home, and giggled for a couple of hours. The next morning my brother called to say that Santa had been to his house and left a present that had made him VERY happy but had left the dog confused. She would bark, start to walk away, then come back and bark some more. We all agreed that Louise should remain in her panty hose so the rest of the family could admire her when they came over for the traditional Christmas dinner. My grandmother noticed Louise the moment she walked in the door. "What the hell is that?" she asked. My brother quickly explained, "It's a doll.""Who would play with something like that?" Granny snapped. I had several candidates in mind, but kept my mouth shut. "Where are her clothes?" Granny continued. "Boy, that turkey sure smells nice Gran" Jay said, to steer her into the dining room. But Granny was relentless. "Why doesn't she have any teeth?" Again, I could have answered, but why would I? It was Christmas and no one wanted to ride in the back of the ambulance saying, "Hang on Granny, hang on!" My grandfather, a delightful old man with poor eyesight, sidled up to me and said, "Hey, who's the naked gal by the fireplace?" I told him she was Jay's friend. A few minutes later I noticed Grandpa by the mantel, talking to Louise. Not just talking, but actually flirting. It was then that we realized this might be Grandpa's last Christmas at home. The dinner went well. We made the usual small talk about who had died, who was dying, and who should be killed, when suddenly Louise made a noise like my father in the bathroom in the morning. Then she lurched from the panty hose, flew around the room twice, and fell in a heap in front of the sofa. The cat screamed. I passed cranberry sauce through my nose, and Grandpa ran across the room, fell to his knees, and began administering mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. My brother fell back over his chair and wet his pants. Granny threw down her napkin, stomped out of the room, and sat in the car. It was indeed a Christmas to treasure and remember. Later in my brother's garage, we conducted a thorough examination to decide the cause of Louise's collapse. We discovered that Louise had suffered from a hot ember to the back of her right thigh. Fortunately, thanks to a wonder drug called duct tape, we restored her to perfect health

The sucks, sucks around here. ;D

Try running a business with it and see what you think. I have gone days before a voice mail would show up. About two years ago it cost me a $70,000. job because I didn't return a call that I never got for like a week. Thats when I tried to reach the CEO and no one knew who he was.

I went with the Boss's recommendation and got Trend Micro for 69.95. Now I will see if they send as many pop ups as Norton did.

When they change over it has no where to go but up, because it has hit rock bottom. 8-)

I uninstalled Norton with no problem, I have Ad - Ware what does it do?

I need help also!!! and I have new speakers I can sell. Having issues with my suburban. I have what I assume is voltage going to my speakers while the car is off. This killing my battery. I have spent in excess of $1000 on my radio and still don't have no music. I have a amp ordered as of now ( $687.00 ) to see if this is it. any help? Didn't mean to jump your thread, just being disgusted.

I have been with Alltel a long time in fact I was the second one to have a mobile phone in eastern NC. It really did so much for my business, but after fifteen years I have watched them go down to nothing. I got my phone wet a few months ago and had to get a new one and you guessed it, I had to sign a two year contract. The phones have got so small I can't hold them or see the numbers. My bill is sky high and I wonder how all these kids can pay the bill. They must have put me on the lower part of the tower because my service sucks. Would rather take a butt whooping than have to go to one of their stores. There is never anyone there that can answer a question for you. Tried to call the CEO and nobody knows him. Now I have people Texting me and I have no idea what to do with it wouldn't it be easier to just dial the dam number and say HELLO. I'm scared to change my service for my business because I've had the number for so long. So what the heck do you do? I'm just disgusted. >

Mine has expired and the price has gone up to $49.95 + they want all your life information ( Phone #, Address etc ) when all they need is a M/C number. Is there any thing else available?
