Not sure about Free Where, so here's some Free Who!

A couple Aministrative assistants perhaps?

Alternative plot: Although I would contend from LOTS of things I've read and proofs I've seen that everything is BOTH evolutionary AND creationist (though by whom is in question), even if things are evolutionary, it's obvious that nature tries paths that are not along the main line. If the result is better, it gets incorporated (i.e., evolution heads in that direction), if not, it gets discarded. Unfortunately, the entity heading off the beaten path may believe they are utilizing free will, but are they? ?

So, expect a lawsuit? ?

I think he got talked into buying some will online and paid a fortune for it only to find out that he could have had it for free... My usual fun out of the way, I love thought puzzles like this. There's an excellent book by a guy named David Gerrold called When HARLIE Was One which touches on this topic. David also wrote the famous Star Trek episode "The Trouble With Tribbles" as well as the, er, well, most of the Chtorr series. I say "most" because he never finished it! LOL.

I'd take that over more cowbell any day! ?

Wha??! Do you really mean to tell us that you didn't check the cable first thing? ? Unbelievable! simply unbelievable. ?

Unbelievable! simply unbelievable. ? That out of the way, I must admit that I'm see a LOT of attempts to channel people's thinking and reduce freewill. I think I've proven that just saying an opinion (even if it's backed by a lot of sources and evidence) will still get some people triggered to jump down your throat. I don't blame them, that's just how they are being programmed 24/7. The last couple of generations have each gotten worse which makes sense if you understand that the time children are most like a sponge is before the age of 7. During that time they absorb whatever they see and hear from their "authoritative" figures without any conscious filtering. Unfortunately, a LOT of these authoritative figures are spewing what they've been programmed (parents, teachers, religious leaders, politicians, doctors, etc.). As I've alluded to before, I see a huge shift in bias from family and community to power and greed. It makes me sad and angry. Businesses now consult with insurance companies when they have a potentially harmful product to see if the insurance settlements will be less than the cost to pull things and fix them. Doctors get the vast majority of their knowledge about medicines from the pharmaceutical reps (and they DO get kick-backs for prescribing many of them). Farmers overuse their land to try and grow and much as they can (plant nutrients are down well over 80% since the 1950's). Airplanes get rushed into use even with fatal flaws (Hello Boeing!). People will get up early and sit in traffic just to go downtown and join a protest where they ask for free stuff, but they won't do it for an actual job. I see corners being cut everywhere as long as there's a profit to be made. I could go on, but I don't want to get depressed. I just hope that people WAKE THE F*** UP!!! And soon. Now, to offset all of that, here's some fun cute animals to make you smile:

Not a hoax, but a great song! ?

Ah, you missed those three words "as of now," so, yes, that's why I used that numerator. I'm side-kick, not psychic. Sure, I expect it to exponentially grow, then die off like all the others have before it, but I'm only trying to shed light on the over-the-top panic being caused by the fear-creating media. I also wanted to point out how things that are far more deadly seem to be ignored because the media hasn't stirred the sheeple into a frenzy on those. Is this really something to be concerned about? Yes! Do I feel that there are some serious hidden agendas from certain people using this event for their own nefarious purposes? Absolutely. Unfortunately, I think this was a bit of a test run to see both how it's handled and to get people used to being sequestered and controlled. I also see an expensive vaccine coming soon. Most people are completely unaware that the FDA is 75% funded by the large pharmaceutical companies (the exact ones they're supposed to be regulating!). This became legal in 1992. This is probably the main reason the FDA will NOT approve anything that prevents or cures - only treatments. Imagine not being allowed to change the oil in your car! "Sorry, you must wait until the engine seizes but, even then, we aren't allowed to fix it, you'll have to come in daily for a band-aid fix that will only make your car barely driveable..." The thing that REALLY makes me nervous is that this is exactly one of the possible ways that was discussed about a year ago to reduce the population of Earth. There have been multiple attempts to cause a war between several of the larger countries (some you would not have heard about from any mass media outlet). So far, any significant event has fortunately been avoided. UN Agenda 21 is still out there for anyone to read, but how they intend to reduce the approximate 7.8 billion people down to 5% of that total, is definitely something that should terrify everyone (but it doesn't seem to even be registering). 178 governments have signed this agenda (to be completed by the year 2030). I can't help but see this virus as a test before a much more virulent strain is released... Sorry. Anyway... I hope everyone stays on this side of the ground and we can get passed all this lunacy soon.

When you're young: "Attraction vice" When you're old: "A traction device"

*NEWSFLASH!* YOU have been infected with the "LIFE" virus! It has a 100% mortality rate! How you choose to use the 1 to 43,830 days you have left are completely up to you! Deal with it! ?

I have a t-shirt design to do eventually that says "Male 6, wishes to meet female 9..."

?????????

*Pffttt...* When did THIS fred ever need a reason to get on ANY subject? And, while we're talking about this...

And still pretty close to zero! (Just don't p|ss off Kenny! ?) 'Twas my original point. Right now, you are more likely to die from being attacked by dogs. Still, I can't wait for this whole thing to run its course! They are VERY close to closing the bridge between Washington and Oregon, which would mean I won't be able to go onsite to help any of my clients. Good thing I do most of my work remotely I guess...

I hate to suggest this (since I used to be an Amazon FBA seller and hated this behavior - lol!), but get the other card first, then return the one that doesn't work. If BOTH fail, then you might have accidentally damaged the PCI-E slot during the swap (if you have more than one PCI-E slot and the room, have you tried moving the card?).

Well, it's one thing Spanish ladies lay on... ?

Guilty! Sorry, I sure read that too quickly... Can you still take it back?

The point (again), isn't to say this is NOT an issue, only to show that it is actually relatively minor compared other things that the public tends to generally ignore. My observation is that "someone" is taking full advantage of this opportunity to cause a LOT of havoc in the daily lives of people and the economy. I've seen things like this before and many are trial runs of tactics to be used later or a process to get people used to something that would otherwise really shock them into seeing something is wrong... The fact that the stock markets, currencies, metals AND bonds are all down big-time is another clue. In a normal market time, there's a see-saw effect - definitely not today! I just hope I'm not the only person asking why...

1) It's a SEVEN year-old card Mesh! The IT world works in dog years, so that's one pretty ancient card. 2) Check your air-flow and how clean things are. Cards that get over-heated do weird things.

Reducing drive storage??? Ooo... Your bizarre and foreign concept intrigues me! Tell me more! ? (I currently have over 8 TB's being backed up by Carbonite! ?)

We definitely have that problem around here! Besides the majority of people who show no sign that they ever took a driver's test before getting their license; add in a lot of missing sidewalks; and kids who tend to wear dark colors, not pay attention while staring at their phones and who, apparently, think nothing can hurt them. Because of this combination, we've had a few fatalities in just the last couple of weeks. Two kids and an 80-year old woman in separate pedestrian events. And that doesn't even count a nasty one from last week where a lady who was running late turned onto the wrong lane of a two lane road before plowing head-on into another vehicle. According to the accounts, one car was going 50 mph (the speed limit is 45 mph) and the lady going the wrong way was going somewhere between 60 mph and 80 mph! That's like hitting a brick wall at up to 130 mph... They hit so hard that one engine actually was knocked out of a car and was rolling down the road! Completely senseless, but the worst part is that both cars were carrying children. The two Moms and, at least three of the children in the cars were immediate fatalities. I heard that two others that were in the backseat of one vehicle (a mini-van), are in the hospital in critical condition. Maybe, upon reflection, if only this virus panic had started a week earlier, the all would have stayed home and still be alive...

Always. And if that happens to be a girl from Portland, suffocation has a high probability. ?
