If you give an infinite number of monkeys, an infinite number of internet connections, you do not get a site hosting the works of Bobo Shakespeare.
What you get is "Youtube".

Oh, okay then.......

The specs are the following:
Dell XPS 8700
Intel I7-4770 CPU @ 3.40
16 GB ram
1 TB hard drive
Windows 7 Pro
Since I got a new computer I also got a new monitor.
An Acer 24" monitor
I broke down and got this, so now I am just BROKE.

I'm a schizophrenic...
and SO AM I!
If it takes 2 hours to dig 2 holes and 1 hour to dig 1 hole how long does it take to dig half of 1?
Half and hour is wrong. You can't dig half a hole. DOH!

Re: Favourite Quotations
Awwwww man! I had some really good ones the other day and forgot them already. Here try these for now then:
My boss tells me his father told him: "Remember that when you are dealing with a woman you are dealing with a crazy person"
That one has stuck and comes up often at work now. very often in fact.
My older brother once told me: "What is allowed is accepted" and that was in relation to me not sticking up for myself to avoid fights with my wife. he explained that because I don't fight back that she interprets her behavior as acceptable though she is well aware I don't like it. He mentioned this is true in all manners of me being taken advantage of. Most of that has been stopped by me over the recent years and now I fight with my wife at every turn if she starts it. Same with everyone else who used to take advantage of me. "What is allowed is accepted" think about it!
Thanks for keeping this thread alive Nameless.
