Where are you going to find a Citroen? Or anyone to work on it?

in What to do about the French Comment by tmp March 2003

I really don't think that most people who, like me, are not for this war and don't like our President think that George W is in any way akin to Sadaam. Believe it or not, one can be liberal and reasonable at the same time.

I don't know about looking for justification, but it does seem the "need" for a big SUV here is more about not wanting to appear to have the life that a minivan infers. This is how a lot of SUV's get sold to soccer moms, etc. People seem to think …

in New Car Pricing Comment by tmp March 2003

One other thing cost-wise- depending upon what state you live in, your vehicle registration costs can be much higher for a new car. That 5-year old Camry can be hundreds less a year to register in California than the 2003 model. Insurance is a lot…

If you really only need it for charging your cell phone, I would just get a car charger. You can find a nice one with hands-free for a lot less than you would pay a mechanic to put in an AC outlet. You can also find laptop auto chargers. I thin…

in Anyone know how to add a standard AC outlet to my car? Comment by tmp March 2003

with the 0% finanacing mania of the past year, the market is actually pretty glutted with low mileage used cars. A lot of people got rid of cars that they would have kept years longer to take advantage of the low rates. I would seriously consider …

try here or here . If you want to keep the cigarette lighter and have an AC outlet, I would talk to a mechanic.

You can hunt down and shoot small furry animals, but you can't put a Dell out of (your) misery? It's a strange world, I say.

A dsl router won't help me with a dial-up connection, which is what I have. In any case, I know that I can get set the primary and secondary DNS numbers and the dial-in number through the system preferences and just use exploder to browse. It'…

in SBC sux! Comment by tmp March 2003

So SBC is my internet provider. So I've had the same e-mail address for years. So SBC is a huge company that is ignoring my computing platform of choice. I did not ask or want them to provide me with this "service". It sucks, that's so what.

nope, this is the dial-up. the DSL supports up to 10.1.4, but not 10.2

Didn't Merril Lynch keep Enron at "buy" level until it's collapse? Personally, I think these "analysts" use tried-and-true methods such as dousing and tea leaf reading to tell us what to buy and what to sell.

Okay, I am really not trying to be snide about this. How will it change the way that cities will look? And who will pay for this change? As it has been said, I can see it for mail people and it has great use in factories, but I can't really see i…

they do it because they are cheap-a$$ bastards. They paid Getty Images $50 for the artwork rather than pay for a photoshoot and a model. How they thought that nobody would notice, I'll never know.

Wow- that's weird. I have the exact opposite problem. Fed-ex and UPS refuse to leave things at my door, since the door is "visible from the street". Well, it is if you walk up to it. So I send everything to work. Pain in the butt if it's a big …
