Speaking of liquor. This weekend Mook, I saw one of your flashing beer trucks.
[8D] All Right! Was it parked really close to a frat house?

From a distance I was just sure it was some kind of emergency vehicle. Then when we got really close, I could see that it was! [^]

Maybe I'll have to check that out. Although it's a little more difficult using the computer at home--kids, husband, groceries, laundry--and by the time I leave work my eyes are a wee bit tired of looking at computer screens.

But I'll have to check it out one of these days. [:)]

The Mookie is feeling lazy this week, so she will just 2nd the above. That's why she doesn't have "service" at home. After 10 hours a day here, I don't feel much like even talking at home! Imagine that!

I was told that Trillain would work with both AOL IM AND MSN Messenger. I don't have Trillain but was told it would. If that is the case then you should be able to come chat with us. We all would love to hear from you. And of course EVERYONE is welcome.

Hope to see you there. [:)]

Its weird to get that many pop ups. I have a Norton Personal Firewall, but I'm not sure if it helps.

Top O' the Evening,
Do any of you MS Messenger users have any tips on how to eliminate all of the Pop-Up ads that you get with messenger? I've heard about buying firewall software that blocks it. Do you have any other tips? Since I've upgraded to Windows XP, I get a pop-up ad about every 3-5 minutes.
Thanks a pile!

Mitchell, Jim was wondering if you liked it. I guess you did, right?[^]
BTW, the point of all this is not to make people feel left out.
And who started this whole MSN thing?

(I am stealing a page from Kevin's book)

You will <buy a computer for home use> be missed. It is really <buy a computer for home use> fun. As John says <buy a computer for home use> a real riot.

You know <buy a computer for homeuse> you miss alot on weekends because you don't have a home < get one soon > computer. So if you ever <buy a computer for home use> you can still go to the forums <on your new home computer> on the weekends.

Have a great day and < buy a computer for home use> a great week.

We had a good time tonight. Sorry we miss yall. But there will be another time. All you have to do is download MSN Messenger, its free. It is more fun than the "other" messenger, it really is. So down it now and be ready to come join us another time.
Lucky you! You won't have the Mookie there, cuz we can't download anything. So you will have private conversations w/o interruptions.

Sorry, Mookie. We will miss you there. Don't you have a computer at home?
We will still see you here.
