Tried to talk to one of our geeks about why my system will not POST with the USB external connected. I could not seem to make him understand that I have already chosen the boot sequence in another area of the BIOS and the external USB could not possibly hinder POSTing by trying to boot. I don't think he even knew that I know that he did not understand my questions or accept that I DO have the ability to know what my old shit does and does not do.

Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Pulled all the hair out of my drain.
Pain in the ass, since I wasn't certain
that the stopper could be removed.
Turned out that it was just screwed
on, REALLY tight, but I couldn't see
whether it was removable.

Drove my daughter to her figure skating training. Watched two episodes of "Alias", then one (the first) of "Hornblower". That's a lot of TV for me. :P

your daughter's a figure skater? i'm so jealous. :P

You just went past the square root of two. Well, you need a decimal point, but the figures lined up.

:yikes:

The square root of two is actually an irrational number.

Milla passed 14142 posts, which would be the truncation after five significant figures of the square root of two, multiplied by 10000.

Smartypants.

i didn't get any of that. :laugh:

She wants to be. She's been doing it for a year and a half and is learning fast. She entered her first competition two weeks ago.

She was here before me.
I've only taught her a bit
of the ways of spammage.

She might as well learn from the best.
The only question is whether that's me,
or soph.
