POLL: the final step before ninth_wave reveals all!

You KNOW you want to be whacked...
You said YES on the other thread.

Unfortunately I own 3 snow shovels and a snowblower Maybe I should get that cute little snow fairy to help me out...

EDIT - sorry, I was gagging when I said that

So where'd everybody go? I'm gonna try to start dinner again..I wish I had a video of one of these disasters to send you all (y'all)

See ya later (as long as I don't start a fire or something)

Miss M, the banishment is only if you're proven sane. You aren't, are you?

Dudes & dudettes LOL I say that sometimes being silly, and bless your heart... all the time. I grew up in the Permian Basin and when there's little more than a sprinkling of snow, it's horrible with the way people drive. Ice... forget it! Give me a front wheel drive and I'm good to go. I found where it's telling about the different elevations so that's why I asked.

Glad you don't have to get out in it Ninth. I'm here, just fingertips away.

Awww, Miss M doesn't care. Of course she'll be threatenin' to get that hose out 'fore ya know it! That cookie recipe's near at hand too.

Choo, who's behaving themselves? We better set 'em straight real fast! lol

I'll leave ya'll to the whackin' now and go back to lurking around eBay, gleaning what I can. Careful with those fires!

Hello? Hellllooooo? Anyone here?
How'd the cookin' go Miss M?

edit... Is it alright to have outside links in our siggy here? Someone is asking and I'm just not 100% sure, but don't see why not since we have BC links.
edit/edit... It's the Links on Auctiva thread under Store Window & Store. Thanks!

Obviously I'm NOT sane, since I'm still posting here

cooking went good for once (at least for me)...I used curry in the baked chicken..FLAMING hot. I loved it, he didn't. Nothing new there

As far as the sig, I'm pretty sure it's ok. We all have BC links, Pete has another link too.

Hah! I just knew you're not sane! See, why would ya be worried about having to go somewhere else?

Thanks, I'll go tell 'em for sure.
Glad your chicken turned out yummy... for you at least. lol

Geez, you of all peple should know I'm not sane..LOL! I am actually contemplating a road trip to Texas by myself (prolly not gonna do it tho--too far)

And if I have to go somewhere else for my rantings, you are ALL coming with me

Well, Miss M, you're stuck with me! I'd be there, wherever it may be. I like it here just fine, and know you do too.
YOU are the one that said you're the only sane one here! LOL Choo and I just had to point out 'tain't so.

quote:

I am actually contemplating a road trip to Texas by myself

Wonder where half way is... I'll go look! Cool!!!

edit... Holy COW! It's over 16 hours from here to there, or there to here. lol Somewhere in Missouri? I've been there once and it was sooo pretty.
If you're looking up Canyon, it's the one in Randall County. I don't know what's the place it gives for the Lubbock area even though that's only a couple of hours away.

Daughter has a wedding in June, so i couldn't feasibly go for any length of time till after that.

edit/edit... Or are you pullin' my leg?

No, I'm not pullin your leg, I'm serious.

16 hours isn't too bad, I was thinking it was longer......

Your daughter is getting married?? Congrats!!

quote:

Your daughter is getting married?? Congrats!!

Thank you... they've been together 10 years, so it's about time. lol

How long are you thinking? And when are you thinking? My gosh, I'd love to get away for a bit!

Oh carp I probably shouldn't even have said anything yet..lots to work out.

But I am definitely serious, wouldn't it be great? Too bad Reno is so far, we could go and harass Ninth..(if he knew we were coming he'd move)

I'm glad you did say something! Looks like Springfield, MO is really close to half way, 8:05 & 8:08. I must have more Interstate cause it's about 50 more miles that are covered in 3 minutes. lol Not bad at all!!

Sure there's lots to work out. We can just plug away at it and get there.
Yeh, it IS too bad Reno's so far. Wonder if there are any special, good air rates. hmmmm...

quote:

(if he knew we were coming he'd move)

Ya think? Would you do that Ninth?

edit: Taz is 14:39 away from there and Ninth is 24:48. YIKES!
I don't fly well. I'd be ready for a whole keg for myself to relax! LOL

A couple years ago My girlfriend (who lives in Denver) and I, hooked up in Dallas and went to Mexico together...Awesome trip to say the least

Oh wow! What great fun!
We could do something like that. Yes, lots to work out. That's okay though. I think we should just work it out, decide what we wanna do and do it.

You think so much like I do it's scary

Well, the wedding is long distance and I've about done all I'm gonna do till getting there. Just can't go too nuts on spending is all.

So, where do ya wanna go? Reno? lol

Ninth, where are you, you adorable sweet li'l fly??? Did we OD ya on cookies?

Reno it is! I already feel sorry for Ninth

Gonna sign off for awhile, but I'll be back later if you're still up...

Oh Sh*T all these road trips being planned and me at work while it is happening!
It would be so cool to all get together and have some fun!

Hey Taz. I was just thinking about emailing you.

Yes, it would be so much fun for sure!

I've tried everything with the stupid flash thingy. Help please!

edit/edit... just removin' all the .drv gobbledygook.

Hi Taz!

It figures..I just checked in before going to sleep. 2 AM is my limit tonite (I'm working the weekend, BOO)

I'll be back in the morning tho

Hope you had a good day.

OK Help is here but I am unsure what you need? Is this still a YouTube problem?

Hi Miss M sorry I missed you. The Snow fairy was vicious tonight!
Miss S sorry I am lost as to what your last post was but I think it has to do with your YouTube problem?
Going to count sheep now!

lol Hey you. I just sent an email.

It's sound on adobe flash player, which is what YouTube has, yes. I found I had the wrong one installed, so uninstalled and did the right one. No go. Found the wave and wavemapper ended in .drv instead of .dvr and changed that. Still nothing.

quote:

Going to count sheep now!

That sounds good to me. Like I said in your email, just whenever is fine. It's not important really. I just like to have tunes on the headset.

Sweet dreams.

WAKE UP Everybody

Geez what a bunch of sleepyheads! I'm leaving for work in an hour and you guys are still sleeping! (shaking my head)

Hi all looks like no one is around? Just got back from a shopping trip with my daughter and her friend. Rather interesting trip I must say!
Things just may be looking up for the New Year! LOL.
Will find out tonight I guess

Droppin' by to say Howdy All!
Hope everyone's doin' alright.

Howdy Pardner!<In my best John Wayne voice> Hows about goin out and rustlin us up a few longhorns?

Hey Taz Wanna go snipe huntin'???
edit... I wouldn't do that to you. Really I wouldn't.

Sure you bring the bag and I will bring the stick! After that we can go do us a little cow tippin!

Cow tippin' Now that's somethin' I've always wanted to do!!!

Will have to wait till later though. I think I have a good night ahead of me if todays shopping excursion was any indication.

Doin' the *happydance* for ya Taz.

LOL! Yeah I am highly anticipating my date tonight!

Well I'm off here awhile. Have a great day... and fun nite!

edit... I think it's wonderful! You oughta be havin' a good time. Anticipation... ain't it grand!!!

Have a good one Miss S. See ya later. May or may not post tonight. I think I may be viewing some items from Victoria's Secret tonight.

Hey sweet peoples.
How's everyone? Ninth, you alright there?

Yup, Ninth is ok here, and counting his blessings, as there are many less fortunate people out here that have really taken a hit from this storm. There was a levee break in Fernley, a few miles to the east, that flooded 800 homes and 4000 people, without flood insurance of course, being out in the desert. Then there was a 14 car pileup just a few miles from here. Anyway, the evening news has most of the stories, trees falling through homes in California, stuff like that. Typical winter stuff, nasty business.

I read that Taz is going on a date? Already? Way to go Taz! Eager eyes waiting to read the juicy news! Don't hold out on us now.

Misses S&M, (a new name!)(I told you that talk about group rates was kinky) you're planning a trip! Don't forget, you're always welcome to come to Reno. Miss S has to bring cookies though. And don't forget the secret ingredient!

Whoo HOOOOO Miss S...We're goin to Reno!!
I think he's serious ??

Ninth you may just be surprised one day
We're probably gonna go someplace---Reno is just as good a place as any (maybe better)

Yeah, we're S&M, talk about DARKsiders.... Ooo

You will OD on cookies

On a serious note (possible only occasionally) glad you didn't get whacked too badly in the storm. (Leave that to us) It's 52 degrees here right now, which is never a good sign...usually bitter cold & snow follows.

Taz hope you're having a good time! You'll have to tell us all about it (at least the PG13 parts)

Sorry to get OT on our OT thread, but
SHIRLEY are you there?? Someone has a question about store categories in the Everything Else section and I don't know how to answer, I never had a store. Maybe you could help??

BTW there are a couple of posts on previous page I don't think you want to miss.....

OD on cookies? Is that really possible? Try me. (Miss S?)

The S&M girls coming to Reno, in their leathers? Whoa! Group rates at that. You'll just fit right in here. This IS Reno you know.

TAZ! How you doin'? Have you got a report on Victoria's Secrets yet? We're waiting!

Hi Ninth!

Thought I was here all by my lonesome (again). I'm just about ready to sign off..Geez, doesn't anyone work except me & Taz?? (kidding)

YES it is possible to OD on cookies...Miss S has her super-duper secret recipe and I think I can safely say she'd dying to try them out on you.

BTW I don't think we're going to be hearing from Taz tonite

'super-duper secret'? OMG, I'm starting to 'swoon' just thinking about it.

TAZ in MIA mode tonight? He sounded pretty stoked earlier, can't wait to hear from our rock n roller. Hope he's being a BAD boy.

Well ok Miss M, I think we'll both sign off, watch those needles ok? Don't need no stinkin' mishaps. Check with you in the AM.

G'night Ninth,

And as our good friend Miss S would say "sweet dreams"

(She's also MIA tonite)

Hi sweet peoples.
Sorry I missed ya'll tonight.
Had some chicken noodle soup and chamomile tea and tucked in with a book and my snuggly furbaby. Woke up with a sneeze attack and here I am. Can't stay away from here. Could it be Ninth's intriguing eyes - all 1000 of 'em? Now don't think I haven't grown rather fond of all of you! xo

Miss M, I'll go find the ?? over there. Hope I can help.
"I think I can safely say she'd dying to try them out on you." Can't imagine why you'd think that.

Kinda figured Taz would be MIA tonite. Yippee for him!! Seriously Taz, I'm happy for you.

Where'd Sexy St Pete and Choo go? Choo needs an S name. lol

Ninth, I'm thankful you're fairing well there. Savin' my super duper secret recipe just for You.

Sweet dreams... or somethin'... all o' ya'll.

Miss M, did you see the reply on Is Auctiva All or Nothing thread in Getting Started? I'm curious to know whether it would work or not. Maybe someone that doesn't use the gallery could try it out?

Went back a page. lol So Ninth, you really are kinky? You sure you want us there?
Come on Miss M, let's work out those details and head that way!
You think he's serious... Are ya Ninth? I'd sure love to try ODin' you on cookies... well, ya know.

Hey Miss S,

Sorry I missed ya last nite but 2 AM is my limit on a worknight or I'd never get up even at this late time in the morning

Hope everyone has a great day today..will check in later

OK one more OT then gotta go...
Someone on the Listing section has a ? about IE/FF...sounds like it should be a simple answer for someone that actually KNOWS what they're talking about...anybody want to check it out?

I can't believe no one is here this morning...Taz is prolly still out from last night

Hi Ms M, just posted a possible answer regarding FF/IE.

Has been rather quiet over the last 24 hours,

Thanks Choo,

It's VERY quiet! I'm sure it will liven up later on

Now I'm walking out the door....

Hello all!
QUESTION: What is better than having a beautiful HARD body model Victoria's Secret for you.

ANSWER: Waking up in the morning/afternoon with a beautiful HARD body beside you and seeing Victoria's Secret at the foot of your bed!

OH my you were BAD childun last night. Misses S&M. Leather and whips and chains and ODing on cookies in Reno!

quote:

I read that Taz is going on a date? Already? Way to go Taz! Eager eyes waiting to read the juicy news! Don't hold out on us now.

Ninth I have been on several dates since New Years Eve with my new lady friend ( too early to say the GF word)

quote:

Taz hope you're having a good time! You'll have to tell us all about it (at least the PG13 parts)

Miss M refer to above post and use your imagination!

My hearts all aflutter thinking about ODing on cookies in Reno.
Takes my breath away.

Hey Miss S how are you today? Things are slow today on here!
EDIT: Do you get this error when you try to play YouTube?

quote:

Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player.

Hi Taz. I'm doin' alright, thank you. I need not ask how you are.

No error on YouTube. No popups blocked by FF. When I right click, setting is set to allow. And the video plays. Just no sound.

Will it work for you in IE ? Sometimes FF gets buggy for me also and I am forced to use IE. For exmple I cannot upload photos to Auctiva to my folders from FF and have to use IE. In FF when I upload to my folder they end outside the folder and I have to move them. Gave up on trying to figure that one out!

No, it doesn't. Just now tried it. It's a Java thing, I haven't figured out how to fix it yet. Can't find it in my programs, though it's in program files. There's no .exe file there. From control panel, installed it and it's still not working, nor is it showing in my programs. Wierd.

I only use FF for pics when it's no more than a few. It will go into folders... can't imagine why yours won't. Pics is really all I use IE for. I tried doing listings with it once and it was just soooo funky, I got right outa there.

edit... IE told me I need Java to run it, in case you're wondering about that. lol It really is quiet around here.

edit/edit... Ok, that sounds clear as mud. When I look in programs from start, it's not there. It shows up in the control panel programs list. Is that better?
edit/edit/edit... I'll reboot and see if that helps. lol I'll be back in a little while Taz. Gotta get a few things done. Thanks so much for your help!

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version of Flash Player?
Speaking of Java the last Java update is when my FF went bonkers uploading Pics come to think of it!

quote:

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version of Flash Player?

Yes. Good idea though.

Just sent you email.

Where is everybody else at?

Another link for you to check Shirley you said you did this but unsure if you also changed the registry entry also? http://loftninjas.org/blog/2007/12/no-sound-on-youtube-flash.html

quote:

Where is everybody else at?

I've been wondering that too. Bet I can guess. lol

I've reinstalled everything and tried the shockwave too. I'll go try your link and I think it was in the registry I changed it where the letters were backwards on the driver. If this doesn't work, I'll have my computer guy work on it for me. Now I'm starting to wonder if I'm messing stuff up instead of doing any good.

As long as you have a newer Windoze computer you will be able to use system restore if you screwed something up

Checked the wavemapper again. I tried doing the other thing on the second link and can't find the path to get it saved in the right place. I've got ShareBear and it works. Thanks for your help Taz. I'll just have it worked on and forget it. I can't believe it's been such a pain. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, or what would be to someone that really knows. lol I get nervous going into the registry.

You have plans tonight?

edit... I took it back when I was in the playground. Darn if I know whether it worked before that or not. Maybe I'll do that. I'm just pretty frustrated with it now, so am gonna give it a rest. That doesn't mean you have to stop tossing ideas my way.

Just relaxing for the night. Have to go to the dentist in the AM Nicole is coming over in awhile so ....
Sorry that I could not figure the problem. Hard doing computer diagnostics without actually being able to Hands-On the problem

I know. Tech support, when it's really tech support, is amazing to me for that reason.
edit -It's got Vista OS. I still have a time finding my way around parts of it.

Tech support has a computer in front of them that tells them what questions to ask and then gives them a solution or solutions to try.
I am trained as a Computer Network Specialist but do not work in the field!
I freelance a bit working on PCs by referral

EDIT: EEEEWWWWWWW! I do not like Vista one bit. I like my 3 year old HP with Windoze XP on it

lol Short version... I'm not exactly fond of Vista myself.

edit- Miss M, you wondered if it counts us as hits. I just checked and it doesn't.
Maybe the first time? But not each click here we make.

Hi. Anyone around?

Just popped on to check the thread out. This is addictive! Lady friend is still here and we just got done watching a movie. Don't know if I will pop back on later or not.

Hi honey I'm home...

Always wanted to say that

So Taz, I'm confused, are Lady Friend and Victoria Secret the same person, or are you juggling?? (You're such a bad boy)

Oh and Miss S,

I will send you an email tomorrow night after work, way too tired now

Hi Miss M. Ohhh Lucy...

Are ya outa here for the night then?

No, gonna hang out for awhile...just have alot to write to you & not really up to it right now

So what did you do today?

Rested some. Worked on pics a lot. Still am.
How was your day?

It was so busy I just wanted to fall down and take a nap..LOL! Seriously tho, SO many really sick people, it's terrible. More of the same tomorrow, can't wait til the day is over

Hi all. Just checking in again. Miss M, Lady Friend , Victoria's Secret , Nicole all one and the same.
No juggling going on, that was in my younger days.
Still trying to figure out how to introduce when we go out? My daughters friend my girlfriend. I told her tonight I was going to introduce her as my FB and maybe eventually she could progress to GF. LOL
She just left to go home a few minutes ago. We watched Home of the Brave tonight.

I don't think I could do what you do. You're to be commended for it!

edit.. Hi Taz
edit/edit... what's FB? I know it shoudl be obvious. lol

FB I cannot fully explain but use your imagination along with the word Buddy. I would surely get in trouble if I posted the other word!

Alrighty then... shouldn't have asked.

Taz, I was gonna ask the same question..Big DUH, eh?

Miss S and I are just innocent little things so we didn't get it

(You can stop laughing now)

No I would not do that to her, we were discussing things over dinner tonight. Several things came up one of which is how her parents are going to react to our dating. Her mother is 2 years younger than me.
We are just going to take things as they come and move slowly. I told her I do not just want to jump headfirst into another relationship this quickly.
but also told her I would not date anyone else. HMM almost sounds like GF??

After last nights steamy posts I DO NOT think so!
Sorry I missed that bit of fun , however I was creating my own steam last night.

quote:

Miss S and I are just innocent little things so we didn't get it

Yeh, where's Ninth after those steamy posts?
Ninth, are you hiding? I've prepared a special dinner with some yummy cookies for desert.

edit... and Miss M, I'm still laughing. LOL

quote:

After last nights steamy posts I DO NOT think so!

I missed 'em too Taz. Of course, I wasn't having the fun you were. lol

Ninth always seems to disappear for awhile doesn't he. I still say he's lurking even tho he says he's not

Well ladies I am off to bed. My eyelids are a bit heavy from a couple glasses of wine tonight.

I probably should leave him alone. (eh Ninth? I don't wanna. )Or has he always disappeared and I'm just taking it personally?

edit- Sweet dreams Taz.

Yes, you're taking it personally Don't!

'Night Taz

Ok
Darn I just can't concentrate. I've lost the same picture three times trying to get it uploaded. grrrrr

edit- 11:11

Well I guess we know why you can't concentrate..LOL! Bad girl

shhh


Woohoo! found it and have it online finally. Now it probably won't even be a good gallery. lol

Miss M, I do think you're the sane one of the bunch. I mean that in the most endearing way.

I think I'm gonna turn in. Hope to see ya in the morning. Sweet dreams.

OK, I heard (read) that! Here I come back to the thread after a short absence only to find myself being accused of lurking! No slack! Actually I just woke up from a long winters nap. I sure have been dreaming of cookies a lot lately. They sure were tasty, I did not want to wake up. (Alas, too bad they're just dreams.) Miss S, listen to Miss M, do NOT take it personally (or else you'll get a whack).

Speaking of 'Yum', Taz, glad to hear your life has taken such a quick turn for the better (to say the least). Better watch out for those parents though, could be tricky. Is her father a good shot at a running target? Better limber up.

OK is that an insult? (kidding)

I think I'm gonna turn in too...see you in the morning.

Oh man,

Now you guys are gonna get goofy and I'm gonna have to wait til tomorrow to read it

Now what did I do with that HOSE...........

Ohhhh are ya still here Ninth? Miss M, no, NO please no hose.

We have never gotten goofy (much). Miss M, you just have a penchant for fire hoses. Hell, I'm not going to be able to talk my way out of this am I? Ok, GUILTY as charged! Cookies have even taken over my dreams!
