So...Linux is some kind of computer whatchamacallit? Is it like those disks you put in the make the thing work, or is it something like the Sims, or maybe like Pong?
I guess it's beyond me. Can I get some LInux at Walmart?
Will it work in my TRS-80?

Uh...Dennis...nice try, but I only counted 4 pieces of flair? Could you go back in and add some more flair please? I'd like to see AT LEAST 15 pieces of flair. Look at Cory's last post...the one with the signs? THAT was a lot of flair.
You are a flair-ure.
Sorry to have missed this auspicious occasion.
BUT AT LEAST I DIDN'T MISS FESTIVUS LAST YEAR!
Sorry about that Mr. G. Did you see the other post that was going to be my 2000th post?
What?!?! You mean Cory's a Yooper? No way was that guy not from the U.P.
I actually had that one ready to load, but it got bumped for something else.

Oh, and just in case anyone cares we won the race from Charlevoix to Beaver Island and back. In two days of racing I went from being sun burned like a french fry to being frozen to a life line.

Welcome to B&B and... uh... this thread.
Mr. Gillette is a BIG fan of Beaver Island (Get your head out of the gutter, zeni!) It's a lovely place. I have been there often.
CONGRATS on the race...I hope, when you accepted your award, you accepted it on behalf of all your friends here at B&B. I hope you were clean shaven, and I HOPE more than anything, that you positively REEKED of Old Spice (Shulton) when you stepped off the boat.
Finally, I hope your boat was sporting lots of FLAIR when you crossed the finish line. I hope the crowd in boats around you gasped and said "WOW! LOOK at all that FLAIR!!!! That guy is INCREDIBLE! And did you get a whiff of Old Spice? The REAL stuff? No WONDER he won!"
"Isn't that Cory's friend?"
"What's the penguin doing swimming along...HEY! THAT PENGUIN HAS A ROPE IN ITS BEAK...THAT PENGUIN IS HELPING HIM!!!!"
"That's no rope...that looks like a well-used, well-lubed Ethernet cable, doesn't it? With a Canadian Customs sticker on it..."
"GIVE ME THOSE BINOCULARS...You're CRAZY!"
(No problem...glad to put things back on topic._

I was clean shaven when we left Charlevoix. However, the third degree sun burn on my face means I won't be able to shave for a few days.
Cory,
On the subject of ethernet cables and Canada... how did that blue puck shave soap work out for you ... Nivea or Wilkinsons, I don't remember which one it was except that I haven't tried it yet.

Yep. Look for it in the corner of the round room.
Will it work in my TRS-80?
Ask those NetBSD jokers, they'll make that OS run on damn near anything except an abacus and a Model T.
I heard they're working on an abacus port. There should be a beta in a few months.
You, in fact, can buy Linux pre-installed on Walmart computers.
(where's the 'rim shot' smilie?) Thank you! We're here all week! Tip your bartenders!
// abacuses run about 10 baud max. Yikes.
Dear Cory:
I gave my phone number to Mr. Gillette last week, and he hasn't called me back. Someone told me that he'd sold his suit and the drycleaning ticket that I put my number on got washed off with Nancy Boy moisturizer.
Could you put me in touch with him? Today is his birthday and I wanted to give him something special!
Love,
Uma Thurman

Hey Richard, the blue soap bowl was the Wilkinsons and I've betting loving it. Great stuff.
Don't know what to tell ya, Tom...the lines must've gotten crossed. If you hear from Donna Chang, tell her to call me.

Ok, so I was out shopping yesterday at the local ShopKo (the equivalent of K-Mart and Wal-Mart having kids) and I stumbled across an "Internet Cable" that was on clearance and marked down to $3.49! Score!
Well, sure enough, I get home and am ready to fire up the PC and sound the battle cry here when I look a little closer. This damn thing is for the Nintendo Wii!!! The connectors look identical to me, but I could be wrong.
Anyone with a Wii know if these are cross compatible with PCs? If not, well, false alarm, I guess.

Thanks! How does it compare to Erasmic & what's the scent? Just general soapy? I may have to prevail on Chip to send me some.
I'd say try it and find out. If the plugs fit, you should be OK... and what's the worst that can happen (famous last words)?
(where's the "impending doom" smiley?)
I dunno, but as this is my 1000th post, you might hear a seal being broken or see a few skeletal horsemen riding by. Maybe there should be a smiley for that too...

Congrats. I'll post a thread.
