@unknownuser said: What website did you visit the first time you went online? Back then there weren't any websites. There was no web! tim 'on the net since it was flat' R.

aahhahaha oh that cracked me up... Ross is always good for a smile. no I didn't watch it, and no I hardly even watch TV as I don't have cable or anything like that. I only get 3 channels. I saw this on a conservative website, that's the only way I even knew Bob had retired... but hey Bob's ladies are something that deserves watching...

Yeah I saw that too, however after the Disney trip I just took my wife and daughter on, that is pocket change. I did not see the no camera rule... that really sucks.

Well I just learned a couple of new expressions

Nvidia said that because laptop cards are so specialized they have you go through the laptop manu. site for the updates. I got a newer BIOS and driver and now SU is running just fine. Thanks TR

depending on the type of tree, the builder is going to save the client bookoo dollar in the long run, as your structure will not fall victim to the mighty root. there may be cheaper ways... but none will be as sure thing as this. unless it's a redwood, in which case you're SOL anyway.... do you have any information about the lot? distance from the structure of the tree or trees? usage of the lot surrounding the trees? ie drives? walks? what type of soil is the structure going into? how far down is bedrock? what's the frost line? lot's of questions to be answered when coming at a problem like a tree... how old is the tree? what type? how common is the tree? what species of animals and birds and insects use this tree? is the tree of historic significance? is the tree valuable? does it provide any shelter, shade or other benefits? is the tree a danger to the structure in storm or bad weather? anyway I could go on forever I suppose... it will most likely come down to one issue... what does your local government say you have to do?

Haven't heard back yet. And thanks for the tip on msconfig. We will try that if the F8 doesn't work. TR

I wonder if he was trying to commit suicide and had some bad luck?

You wouldn't feel any colder if your body has consumed fat reserves. It's only after those reserves are gone and the fuel is gone (starvation) would you feel the effects. That's not to say you wouldn't feel cold. Most people do. Just not the extreme sensitivity to cold. There are other factors besides fat content and food consumption that affect body temperature - namely the body's ability to regulate temperature through circulatory system.

As far as all the small details, you can get as detailed as you want to with Revit but the beauty is that you don't have to. I don't want to go back to Autocad if I don't have to if that tells you antyhing. I am still searching for that perfect workflow fit for SketchUp and Revit.

Sorry for your unfortunate accident Nick. My mother used to work on Redstone Arsenal here in Huntsville, AL. She was coming home one night and hit a deer. Totaled the car. After the MP made sure she was alright he asked her if she wanted the deer. She declined and the MP had one of his buddies with a truck on site before the tow truck made it there.

I wish you the best of luck Craig. Although, with your skills, both computer and physical, I am sure you will land on your feet whatever the outcome.

Hi boys, I am Madagascar trying to connect. Wish you all the best and will try to come back soon with a few pictures to give you the taste of Nosy Be. Regards, Patrice

Jon, sounds like a wine to gift but not drink.

At school I played the usuals; football and rugby. I was enthusiastic but pretty terrible. Also had to play cricket in the summer, you americans should be glad you don't play it, it sucks; complicated rules and very boring. I did a bit of climbing and abseiling later on and got quite into that, would like to take it up again. In my twenties I experimented with a gym membership but just found it boring but did do some kickboxing that I would also like to try again - not to batter people, just for fitness. For the past thirteen years I have been running a few miles every day religiously and entered a few local 10k races, I should join the local club and get more competitive, this thread may inspire me.

Thanks Craig, advise from an expert is always welcome. When I bought the Nolan helmet I was careful about the size and it fitted well .... snug as you say. Its a nice helmet which allows a bluetooth device for phone but a little heavy to town riding. Maybe okay on motor-ways though. On the 'training track', fortunately a new Furniture Store has opened just up the road from me with a large car park. It even has speed ramps! I've been going there in the evening 7-8pm getting used to things. Its dark at this time here but it is well lit. Oh! they also have security cameras and I'm now wondering if they are thinking that I might be casing the joint when they look at the videos in the morning

Happy birthday Susan. Sorry so late.
