Oooh! Hope it comes my way. :clap:

Reminds me of the November 2002 tornado outbreak.

So I drive the speed limit of 35 mph, and this guy gets so close to my car (like an inch) and keeps putting his high beams on like I should be going 50+.  :blink:

How nasty people like him these days get a license I have no idea...

That's when you get over and let him go on his way. if he;s gonna have an accident (and he will driving that way) you don't want to be the other party involved in it.

Honestly, I can't stand people who go the speed limit. Usually everyone around here is 5-10 MPH over. People get REALLY mad about slow driving around here.

So I was having trouble with my computer, and had to format.  I decided to install Vista, since I had a free copy (yes, it's legal.)

Whoever thought Vista was "kewl" needs to be shot.

I think Vista needs to be scrapped and they should have some update for XP. In the next year or two, Windows 7 will be released. I hope it won't be another Vista.

The hardware requirements are unbelievable. You need like 4 GB  of RAM just to get the damn thing to boot.

Windows 7 doesn't look to be any better. Microsoft is too rigid in their programming department. Things would be a lot more stable if they opened everything up to different processor architectures.

Where are you getting that information (oh, I know, you pulled it from your bottom). I've run Vista with 1 GB RAM for over a year with no problems whatsoever.

Here's something you don't see everyday:

On my IS, where the Local Forecast text for "Today:" would be, it says Temporarily Unavailable directly under it. I don't think i've ever seen this before, on anyone's IS. :blink:

I usually try to do about 5MPH over, or else, yes, people get mad.  :yes:
Marlton is filled with cops. People here get pulled over all the time just for going slightly over the speed limit.

Gil - I had that problem once with my Bensalem/Levittown IntelliStar back in June. Everything other than the current conditions were unavailable, then I got a 48 hour forecast with portions unavailable.

I was thinking more like current IS version...

Out here, you go a whole week without seeing a single cop on the roads.
