Good luck with the jury duty. I've was able to get out of federal jury duty in trenton(about 3 hours away) and it was a murder case that could have dragged on.

about public posting. My fear is that fox is evil and a lot of people share their work on myspace not knowing that fox can exploit it all they want.

I'm not angry with you.

Unfortunately it's true, I'm 35 Enjoy the wedding.

To answer your questions:

1. "Why is talking to you disrespectful if I'm married?" That was taken from my myspace account. myspace & SG are 2 different animals. To explain, the 1st email I ever got on myspace was from a married man wanting to meet me for a sexual encounter. myspace is srtickly for promoting & networking, not "hooking up" I wanted that to be very clear to anyone reading my profile.

2. "I mean I'm not hitting on you, there's no chance that I'll ever do anything with you, and I'm not even slightly interested in anything sexual with anyone who's not my wife. How does having a friend (who happens to be female) disrespect anyone?" I'm very glad to know there are still a few good ones out there. Unfortunately my experience with marriage was not so good. My ex husband used the internet to find women to have affairs with, so I think u can see where I'm coming from. Of course there are exceptions to every rule. I do have a few male friends on SG that are married, but like I said SG is much different than myspace.

I hope that clears it up a bit

try some photography. It's techy and artsy.

I just choose to be the optimist. My patron saint is Magdalene or Magdalena as I seen it also. I did a thesis on ST. Joan of Arc, and I have done numerous papers on the first and second century Christians.

Sainthood is sacred, suffering is our greatest joy and therefore not a suffering at all. St Louis De Montfort. True Devotion to Mary....

Thank you so much for your lovely compliments.

Chin up! You are not a whiner but a Saint, that is what care givers are!

I understand completely. I see this in my patients families daily. this is a grieving process that is so hard because your loved one is with you but not able to be the way things were. It hurts and it's sad and it sucks. We take what we get and love with all we have. That's the human spirit for you. Saint's don't all have crappy lives!

Thanks for the nice words on the thread. And in response, I didn't start the discussion to gripe, I meant it to be a thank you to the PSW's that I had found encouraging.

Thanks for the advice, but it didn't really sound like something I was going to be readily able to do (my card had a weird custom cooler from the manufacturer). I replaced it with the Zalman ZF700-Cu (with the help of my friend) and 3 hours later am still running sub-55 even with fairly high end 3D game playing. So, problem resolved.

Oh, I've put the computer together myself at various times in the past but it's tricky and my hands are too large to do some of the installation required without injury (seriously, I've cut myself on the boards). And I've managed to screw it up enough that I fried a motherboard and power supply (I hooked the four pin detachable bit of the 24 pin power supply connector to the wrong thing and sent much, much more power into it than I should have.).

So these days unless it's something relatively simple (I'll do my own RAM installation when I go up to 2 gigs, for example) I find it better to rely on my friend Eddy, who's more familiar with hardware, less likely to screw up catastrophically, has better tools, and smaller hands. In this case...I probably could have eventually figured out how to take the previous cooler off and put the new one on, but I didn't want to risk any damage at all to the video card that I had paid 400 dollars for back in the day. (Replacing it would of course be cheaper now, but not *cheap*.)
