First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[MenashaCorp]

Yuppers! You win, Miss Mary Sunshine! Just be sure to stay away from jazz and liquor and men who play for fun.

Oh, I can't abide THAT!!! (appropriate quote or no )

That goes against the whole idea of C/K on this cruise!!!!

 

[MenashaCorp]

I wasn't too certain.

Liquor and men who play for fun, these are two of my favorite things...

Oh wait, that's an entirely different musical!

I once saw THAT musical "starring" Barry Williams (TV's Greg Brady) as Captain von Trapp. Interesting.... Johnny Bravo off off off Broadway...

 

[disneyholic family]

Yep, it's the Cell Block Tango. Women singing about how and why they killed the men in their lives! Good stuff!

i loved that scene in the movie (also on broadway)...

Just be careful. And be good to her. Cause some men just can't hold their arsenic.

[MerriePoppins]

Note to self... Pick up earplugs after work...

To replace the ones I lost today?

Babe, you are the best !!!

[MenashaCorp]

I'm not putting my hand on anyone's "arsenic." Too many legal ramifications!

Sorry to go OT, but I'm freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My stupid computer is giving me a terrible time and now it's got to go see "a professional". Stupid laptop can't find the network. How can't it find the network, it's sitting right next to it? Good thing I've backed up everything.

Shhhh, I'm typing this from ........... the playroom, and I'll have to listen to the podcast from here. ACK!!!!

I just took mine to the Geek Squad today. Mine has a severe case of the BSoD (blue screen of death). I'm gonna let them figure it all out and backup my files for me. I had a AAA 20% off coupon (AAA....not just good for those room discounts!). Total cost....$135. Let's see what it costs to actually REPAIR it. BTW, my laptop cost $2,300 and it's only 2 years old!

Don't ya just hate 'em when them don't work?!

So you have a desk top in the playroom so WE NEED TO

BE VERY QUIET?

 

[jeanigor]

We've got the computer blues, too. When I came home from work and turned on our computer, it started to load Windows...but started looping through the BSoD and restarts the computer. And the cycle repeats. Thank goodness I have access to the boards and podcast from work. But this is going to put a hamper on the magnet designs.

I hope it is fixed quick Jen.

I know being in the playroom is a challenge. But tomorrow's Podcast should be a goodie. At least that's what Kevin has been, cough, cough saying. Consider it as taking one for the team or the COBettes in this case.

 

[DLBDS]

I'm using DD11's computer in her room. It's alright but this chair is killing my frickin' back! Won't be here much longer......

Watch out with the Geek Squad. My sister took hers in, it took three days to diagnose that it was a failed hard drive. She told them not to do anything except to back up her stuff. My husband looked at it and found out she had a virus, detected with her own security software, and he fixed it.

AskTracy is full service AnswerTracy!!

Whom to trust for computer service is so hard. Once upon a time, I trusted Dell and had had nothing but good stuff from them. (I used to say the same about Delta Airlines!!) Maybe one day Corey, Alex, Will etc will open DIS-ITwerks with Pete and we'll be covered with trustworthy computer help.

I may try adding a Mac once my major computer errands (you-know-what in 47.5 hrs ) are over. MacBook Air for travel/cruise, he said, bringing it back to the thread topic??

There really isn't anything else I CAN do. I hope these geeks know their stuff. Personally, I wasn't too impressed with the guy checking it in. I figure the computer tech gods are kept isolated in another room and aren't usually working the front counter. I tried fixing this on my own (and through Dell tech support). Dell's recommendation (after a couple of hours).... backup my files and reload my operating system. Essentially, start anew. I don't think so. This is a LAST resort. I can get into Safe Mode with no problem so that's good, I guess. There's hope! We'll see what the geeks say.....

The problem with computer geeks is that each one things the next one is stupid and doesn't know anything. Like any other profession some are better than others, but computers don't tell you whats wrong and the troubleshooting process often is just trial and error. The first way I fix anything is to wipe and reinstall the OS. This almost always fixes the problem, if not then you have a hardware issue, bad HD or worse. Back up your file and reinstall your OS, its not as bad as it sounds. In fact I recommend it to most people at least once a year. It just cleans up all the crap that collects on your system.

We all should have known that we weren't teased or tormented enough. Kevin wouldn't give in so easily.
