Not sure where you get that from....he's been here only sporadically for the past several months.

Sometimes you make no sense Roland.

I'm sorry to hear that you might have to consider doing this, though I definitely am no stranger to that situation. I'll certainly see what I can do to buy a few from you, if for no other reason than to give you some money in your time of need.

I never felt the need to blow that kinda money on shoes or pants. Like me for me, not for what I wear. The clothes don't make the man.

Blow money? It's worth every single penny. Skate shoes are VERY different from regular shoes. My last skate shoes lasted well over 2 years.

Hardly.

It's mor economic to buy $70 worth of GOOD shoes that last for years, than to spend $30 every few months on regular shoes. (Do they even make $30 shoes?) Believe me, I've had a lot of bad shoe experiences.

You don't have to spend $70 to get shoes that last a good long time. I've paid more than $20 for shoes only a few times in my life, and in all honesty I didn't see any difference between those shoes and the cheaper ones. And for kids, there's no economy about it. Kids outgrow shoes so fast that in a matter of months they'll need the next size. And that goes for kids of any age.

In Kyle's case ripping would not be illegal. In fact, its never illegal to rip a DVD, unless you plan to use the ripped product for illegal purposes.

As Gil is saying though, there are many programs out there that can do this and its relatively simple.

Eric Clapton is great. I'm not familiar with many of his older songs though. Layla is the only one I think. He had several good songs in the 90's that I really liked (Change The World, My Father's Eyes, and Blue Eyes Blue, IIRC).

I'm with Tyler. But my list is as follows:

Pizza Hut
McDonalds
Roy Rogers
Hardees
Wendys
Burger King
Dairy Queen
Checkers
Papa John's
Dominos

Ah, I forgot about Roy Rogers. I liked it there, but I only know of one Roy Rogers here and that is located at a rest stop down at the Garden State Parkway. I've only been there once in 2002.

As for Dairy Queen, all I've had there are their ice cream products and their hot dogs. I heard they had good hamburgers, but I don't see burgers listed on the menu at the DQ I go to. They do list chicken sandwiches, fries, hot dogs, and a few other hot stuff. I'm assuming the menu varies by region/location.

There used to be Roy Rogers all over the place here, but no longer. The last time I went to Roy Rogers was several years ago, and it was in Harford County. There used to be a RR right up the street from me (prior to being RR it was Hardees), and there used to be another one near Eastpoint Mall, also not far away. There are a number of Roy Roger's on the Eastern Shore as I recall, from my many trips to OC.

I'm really 48 years old

And I'm Jamie Lynn Spears' baby's daddy.

You wish you'd been in bed with that.

Well if he can't tell us the truth, and if his behavior continues, he won't be at TWCC much longer.

Why do people have to lie about their age?

Same goes here.

Roland, you've left me speechless, for the very first time. I simply don't know what to say. 

Stephen, a HD replacement, whether by oneself or a computer service is FAR cheaper than replacing a computer. and just because a HD has problems, doesn't by any means mean the computer needs to be replaced.

BSOD's don't cause you to lose anything. If you can restart your PC and get into Windows you shouldn't have lost a thing. 

I lost everything in my hard drive though. Even my videos recorded from my tuner.

Then you had more than just a simple BSOD. Your hard drive bit the dust.

I have a scanner which includes the NOAA channels. It even sounds a tone when a warning has gone into effect!
