hijacked FP

=?Windows-1252?Q?Rob_Giordano_\=28aka:_Crash_Gordo · Sep 19, 2004

A long time ago a guy came into my retail store, wearing a cowboy hat, and a pair of silver sixshooters. Under his hat he had his head wrapped in aluminum foil...in fact his whole body was wrapped in aluminum foil under his clothes. I asked him why...and he went into a long and almost intelligible tirade about cosmic rays hijacking his thought waves.

FP2000 and FP2002 will both install and work on Windows 98 and up.

But can you explain in detail what you mean by Hijacking?

Oh, I'm getting there.

Crash "hijacked" my aluminum foil bit though - probably with the help of his
buddies at the FBI, CIA and the cast of the X-Files. So now I need to
reformulate my bit.

I deny all knowledge of FBICIAXFILE operatives.
Maybe we should be spelling it highjacked?

You are going backward in time. FP 98 is almost 7 years old.
If you are having trouble with your IBM, installing 98 is not the answer.
Maybe its the computer itself that is NG.

and how did that make you feel about the six-shooters? ;-)

Doesn't bother me...I carry too.
He really was a nice old cowboy dood...just a tad "off center".
He was about 90 yrs old and used to come in all the time to shoot the bull

Chris Leeds, MVP-FrontPage · Sep 20, 2004

one of the friendliest places to be is the shooting range. ;-)

With those six-shooters? Did he think the bulls were stealing his
thoughts?

Maybe. It was really funny when his "kids" came in to drag him home...the kids were in their 60's. He was quite a character around here.
