  1. haha!!! those things are too funny
  2. This was more of a relaxing trip with not too many challenges as the group I was with mostly had stock vehicles ... so I spent most of the day either dragging the ones that were stuck or spotting the rest over the obstacles. I did however had one "oh sh!t" moment ... I was leading at the time through this tight section of trail going down a hill .. there was a sharp right turn and a huge drop off from the other side so naturally I stayed close to the inside of the turn ... what I couldn't see was that there was a huge rock and a BIG drop right after it! So basically my front passenger wheel fell in that hole while my rear driver wheel went in the air and I got really sideways ... I couldn't do much as I had a huge drop to my left and couldn't really back up and I had no idea what was ahead of me because at this point I couldn't really see anything. Well, somehow I managed to get the jeep back on 4 wheels but yah glad I took extra underwear with me
  3. Do I look like I know where the girls are? Edit: I can tell you this though ... they don't seem to be in the backcountry of Minnesota. So I'm sorta taking this process of elimination, Sherlock Holmes style .. i.e. once you eliminate the impossible, whatever left, however improbable is the answer. I still have a lot of ground to cover though but I'll eventually get there (i.e. where they are )!!!
  4. I just remembered that I may have used Badcopy (but I am not 100% sure at this point) to recover files from a formated flash memory card last year. It may also be worth checking into but I'm sure there are many other utilities like it.
  5. Norton has the disk doctor ... I really liked their old DOS based utilities ... the newer ones just seem to rely on the windows scandisk but I haven't confirmed it (it's just a got feeling). For a floppy, I would try to boot to dos (maybe a win 98 startup disk?) and run one of the old norton utilities disk doctors ... Where you can find it is a good question ... I may even have it somewhere on some old CD but I'll have to start to dig and look. I would bet there are plenty of good utilities on the web though... so a google search may not be a bad idea ... I just haven't had to deal with floppies. On a related note, there was a guy on this last offroading trip I went on that had one of those floppy based SONY digital cameras. It was really funny watching him swap floppies every 6 pictures
  6. It didn't give me a number of planets as it couldn't compute ... but it said I need 4 Fadixian Universes at least
  7. It's just a beanie ... my ears were about to snap off from the cold wind so it was an absolute necessity at the time () http://www.Sip.us/zr2/gilbert1004/photos/thum8.jpg That one is actually my brother's hat that I kinda stole from him a couple of years ago since it's so nice and warm ... he doesn't need it in LA anyway.

Woke up Saturday morning to some snow on the jeep! I am very glad I didn't camp (unlike some of the other guys in the group ) That was a nice surprise. It was cold and chilly but the scenery and the action more than made up for it.
  9. Excellent posts so far! I am really laughing loud at some of them that are so dead on accurate! Here's another one: An America-Hye Post: My wealthy father's brother's husband, whose long lost cousin was a member of the royal family of one of the highest ranked royal bloodlines of ancient Astoria, was ostricized systematically by the Ottomans during the post Genocide years. Keeing a strict vegan diet, he was easily mistaken for a man half his age which allowed him to have sex with multiple partners of equally influencial backgrounds and upbringings while being married to none other than the eldest daughter of the famous Balayan family.

    Impressions Of The Day

    Sometimes I wish I knew Chinese so I could figure out why when I go into the buffet the waitresses start giggling and pointing and me and looking at the manager who usually starts crying.
  11. Very funny Armen! I think you really captured it. Let me give it a try: A Domino Post (to a girl): That's great dear. I thinked I posted about universality of multiple parallel string theory. The evidences show that authors researched their books and I read them all in addition to memorization of all of stanford websites. Now I must be spanked
  12. I just hope you don't forget that the "male member enhancement" notes you keep getting in your "personal database" email didn't originate from yourself
  13. In case you change your mind, the only other viable alternative in the same processor range (aka intel XSCALE PXA270) would be the iPaq (now by HP). I think for that kind of money though (i.e. several hundred dollars) a traditional paper and pencil type solution still seems quite adequate. Yes ... I was the one who said that last sentence! Edit: By the way, I've noticed a few other people as well as myself move to the more "online" calendar/information management type system ... the one I'm using is yahoo calendar. I simply syncronize it with my outlook on my tabletPC. So I rely on outlook when I have it around and then easily switch to yahoo when my own PC is not available or I'm at work. All the changes get synced in the end so it doesn't matter where I do my changes (work, home, traveling, library, etc). ... and best of all, it's free ... also quite practical since there are usually PC's around with some type of internet connection (at least for me anyway).
  14. I think your best bet would be Anoushik.

    Meaning Of Nairi

    Kind of counter intuitive but if you search Arpa, you find the answer to Nairi!
  16. NEVER rely on floppies for primary data storage Don't know what to tell you other than if the floppy seems to have problems in one PC, don't let the drive mess with the disk ... it'll usually make it worse ... if the data is important, try to find someone knowledgable to try to recover it if possible.
  17. You know I agree with you but on their regular stuff. Their extreme and ultra poltable sutff is usually hella cool. I bought a R505G a few years ago (the really small one that's still very small by today's standards but has a P200) that's lasted amazingly well. This TR3 is not a work horse by any means but in terms of style, portability, and functionality it's great. Seems to last well too (those that I know have had them for more than a year). The really cool/small ones are shipped to japan though ... for some reason they send them to Japan before trying the US market.

    New Jokes Anyone?

    Women are apples? Ah ... no wonder ... I've been looking for a ketchup tree.
  19. I don't know if Favre is to blame though ... he's still a hell of a QB. But they were saying his brother in law died on Wed in a quad accident on his property. And he had the concussion last week ... and he's old ... I really hope it's some sort of temporary slump because I think they have a great team. It's just that Favre has to stop throwing interceptions and green has to stop fumbling at the worst possible time!
  20. http://www.pdagod.com.tw/images/TR1.jpg http://www.sony.jp/event/sonyfesta/products/new/recommend/tr.jpg http://www.circuitcity.com/IMAGE/product/detail/son/CHP.EC.SON.PCGTR3A.jpg If I were to buy one for me right now, most likey I'd go with the Sony TR3. I know a few people here at UW that have it and that thing is wicked coool!!!! http://www.radioshack.com/images/ProductCatalog/ProductImage/25/25-358.jpg I've also had my eye on the HP Pavilion ZD7140US on the radioshack website ... one day I happened to see it online and it really caught my eye ... I haven't researched it much though. Or just go with dell
  21. Maden must have said for like 50 times ... the "lambeau mystique" seems to be gone Everything went wrong tonight .. but if you look at Favre's numbers, he had like over 300 yards passing ... well, ignoring his interceptions.
  22. Well that game certainly SUCKED. What a waste of a monday night ... I wish I hadn't watched the packer game ... I was hoping Favre would light things up at the end kinda like how Manning did it last year against the Bucs with the 3 TD's in the 4th Quarter with 4 minutes left ... but no such luck Azat, at least you weren't there for this game ... most points ever allowed in Lambow field

    New Jokes Anyone?

    For a second I thought you were talking to Maral .. I guess I was distracted a bit by the image of the blond

    The Bush Earpiece

    COME ON! We are talking about a guy that would have trouble chewing gum and walking at the same time. You seriously want me to believe he can hear someone on an ear peace, take their advice, incorporate it into his answer, while trying to keep that dumb ass smirk going and say thank you to whoever asked whatever question?
  25. The site is already up!!! I JUST KNEW it was coming. http://www.needsumwood.com and this from the last one http://www.youforgotpoland.com
