Seven times the laptop hath crashed today. Counting down the days until Thanksgiving, when I can get a new one.

Reason are in one of the other replies.

That is true, about college and middle age, I hadn't thought about it that way. I guess I always figured that if I gave up riding at any point, I wouldn't come back to it.

Need some help with a problem that's been bothering me.

Climbing back up the slide seems to be universal among species that use slides.

Most domestic elephants will wear chains on a leg. Not entirely sure what it's used for, but that's the norm.

Sounds good to me. Another way to find horses is the corkboard at local tack stores, many people post sales at those places.

I... that was so sweet, I don't even.

I thought that later episode did a lot to wrap up what had been a badly ended storyline.

In my area, a trial generally happens before any money is paid. I've seen many horses returned after a trial period that doesn't work out.

Sounds like a good plan so far for looking at a horse. You'll also want to watch them being groomed and tacked, look for good ground manners, be wary if a horse gets pushy, pins its ears, or tries to bite.

I really liked Riley too. I liked him much better than Angel (Couldn't stand Angel actually, I was so glad when they got rid of him). Riley was pretty supportive and stable until the writers decided to completely derail his character, it was probably good that they got rid of him after that.

I could help, what do you need to know?

I do have 4 GB, but I think upgrading it will help too

I have an HP laptop running 64 bit Windows 7, and it's gotten very slow on me for the past few months. I can't run more than one high-memory program at a time, cannot run a webcam or Photoshop at all, and even have trouble with some flash applications online.

Help anyone with computer issues? More in reply.

I find Japanese cars to be very reliable—I have a 14 year old Toyota Corolla that just keeps on going.

Ooh, exciting! Also glad to hear nothing bad happened... an all too unfortunate possibility in racing these days.

Derby Day! And I missed it! Anyone wanna fill me in?

Feeling great by finishing a paper, finishing my lighting design chart, finishing helping one of the roomies move out, knowing that I'll have the whole weekend to chill, will be home in less than a week, and a week after that will be in INDIA! Life is good.
