    Advice...

    Well, it kind of depends how much you care about the person. As Justin said, he almost asked her to marry him. Given that, it was clearly a very serious relationship, which couldn't have been lacking much, or he wouldn't have even considered this. So, even though she made a mistake...

    Affirmative Action Grading

    I think that sounds like a better approach. Getting in shouldn't be biased, but paying for it probably should be in some cases. It's kind of odd how these things work though. I remember my roomate, he was on a free ride for income reasons and driving a Lexus :D Gotta love the way these...

    Advice...

    Maybe I'm just strange, but I think I could forgive the whole cheating thing, at least once. I don't know, when I was younger I thought it would have to be the end of the relationship, but I guess I've changed a little. It doesn't seem to be so bad as that. I'm not saying I wouldn't mind at...

    Affirmative Action Grading

    Wealth and family connections certainly can't be overlooked. It's not all about academics, it never has been. I have to agree with you there Aunty Em. Likely those minority students who do get into U of M law, or Harvard law didn't come from underprivledged inner city schools in the first...

    An interesting thought...

    nah, when I was in college I took and extension cord and cut the ends off, stuffed into both ends of a hot dog and pluged it in. I don't know how long my "hot dog light" worked for, but it sure stunk afterwards. This would be a very good way to keep organisms from infesting it. Too bad as...

    Affirmative Action Grading

    People are too concerned about being politically correct, and not being thought of as selfish, or thoughtless about others. Well, people are inately selfish, they just don't like to admit it. Even most people who "are in favor" of policies that are against their own self interest aren't really...

    Affirmative Action Grading

    People will always be in favor of policies that benefit themselves, and will tend to oppose those that can have a negative impact on them. When looking for jobs, getting into universities etc etc people take any advantage they can find. Do so many people really volunteer and join all these...

    Advice...

    Yeah, ya gotta give it another try. What do you have to loose. You said it yourself, you still care for her, and not just a little. Better not trust her right away, that will take some more time. Also, play the game, make her pay for her mistakes. If you keep a distance and play the game...

    Burning DVDs with a CDR.

    Ok, I used dvd2avi and nandub with the xvid codec. Although the results were by far the best I have gotten so far, it seems as though I might need some type of filter or something. It appears as though there are black lines everywhere, like every other line of pixels horizontally. Is this an...

    Hello all, never2muchRAM here

    see, didn't I tell you Never2? btw MuFu, are you Happy :D ? I seriously doubt that, but who knows. Life is full of surprises!!!

    Hello all, never2muchRAM here

    I suppose its possible. From what I understand, Happy is here already. Happy was just an Alt from someone "we all knew very well." Some of us like Never2 and wdeep never found out who Happy was. Others knew of course. It was a rather amusing conspiracy that managed to get a few of us banned...

    Burning DVDs with a CDR.

    Justin, Thanks for all the advice. I'll have to give it a shot one of these days. Hopefully one day soon. Definitely multipass is the way to go. I couldn't imagine getting good results from one pass.

    Duron 600 to tbird 1.1 problems

    Never2, can you believe its been so long since I've upgraded? Oh wait, I haven't since you left HWC :D I know, I'm long over due. But I did listen to you on that Fuji digicam and the PIII notebook, and the girl. I can't always take your advice. Ok, maybe I should :D You were mostly right...
