>to make you feel like king of the world.

The only thing that came close was when the mortar boys let us direct fire thier 60mm mortar.Talk about changing the opposing force`s minds.Almost made up for humping thier rounds and baseplate for them.

>Are those horns all from buffalo you have bagged with it?

I couldn`t help but notice the ducks all have that same startled look.On a human it would be called the "Oh Shit!" look.

Nice weapon,well suited for the dispatching of recalcitrant electronic equipment.

You folks do know that monitors implode nicely when hit center of mass.They`re really just the evil twins to the relatively benign TV.

Mainely,Bob-Remembering the lines from an old rock and roll song."And in the sacred name of Elvis I just let fly.Blew that set into the great beyond.57 channels and nothin` on."

>My mistake. Nether recommendation will work with WIN 98. Worse still messenger service can not be turned off in 98. The only potential solution I found is below. I hope it works. (Isn't this kind of problem just like a dull tool and not having any way to make it sharp?)

Windows 98 & ME

Under Control Panel, select Add/Remove.

Select Windows Setup.

Select System Tools.

Click Details.

Uncheck WinPopUp.

Click OK

>Put the monitior on top of you chimney so todd can get a good bead on it. Might take him a second or too to walk his rounds into the target as Kansas is a bit of a ways from Maryland, so you'd better also look for a brick mason while you're at it. Which way is the wind blowing across Illinois?
