Tip of the Day

If you are having file protection errors while logged as an
Administrator,
burn whatever files you need to a CD.(RW saves our landfill)

Then you can do whatever you want with those files.

Humble yourselves under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in
due time.

Why not a USB stick and then you won't have to worry about the RW going
in the landfill either! BTW RW will be read-only as far as files on the
disc as opposed to the USB.
 
How about starting some cooking tips of the day? I'm still trying to
perfect a chili recipe.

I favor adding a can of baked beans to replace one of the chili beans,
makes for a slightly "sweeter" chili.

This might help:

A few years ago the leader of the Houston Chili Cook-Off went before the
city council complaining that the director of the health department was
hobbling the contest with absurd and ridiculous rules, like: "For instance,
he insists that we put a CANOPY over all the cooking areas!"

"What about that, Mr Health Director," asked the mayor.

"Yes, that is a requirement," the health director said. "This is necessary
for sanitation purposes - it keeps insects and the like from contaminating
the food."

"That's what he don't understand," complained the chili-man. "We PUT bugs in
the chili ! Ain't nuthin' like a mess of fire ants to bring out the flavor!"

The health director's chin dropped to the floor and he said: "I give up."

My stick has only 512 MB. I wouldn't want to "wear it out" anyway ?

The fire ants are extinct in Pearland, Texas. The" Rasberry" ants
finished them off.

Funny little critters. You never see them eating anthing, but I have
seen some of them carrying around dead ants.

It's predicted to work for 100,000 writes, much more than the CD RW
which, as noted, changes all files to Read Only.. more of a nuisance
than a problem, really.

I suspect you won't live long enough to "wear it out", on the other hand
the optical drive is many more times likely to die, life expectancy of
them is 2-3 years.

I meant to put a smiley next to the "wear" out statement.
