*They demand a signature (iow, they will not leave the package at your door no matter how safe it will be there) even if the shipper did not request a signature.
*They will not only not schedule the driver to come at a specific time (fairly understandable) but they will not even do "after 5pm" even though that's one of the options the driver can check for when the Next Attempt will be made. @__@
*Your only course of action is to drive to the UPS distribution center the driver is based from, which in my case is about 15 miles away, generally during rush hour on your way home.
Ugh...

I'm borrowing my brother's digital video cam tomorrow, so hopefully I'll get some good footage similar to that Kwoon video that was posted a few days ago.
I was curious as to what offer you fulfilled the first time? I tried the ebay one, but after I create a new ebay account and make a bid on something..I go back to freeipods.com and it says my status is incomplete and I need to complete one offer still.
I also have never received a confirmation email from freeipods.com to confirm my acocunt or anything.
This is frustrating.

Her: <typing> Umm...I'm not sure when our next shipment is coming in.
Me: Awesome. *click*

You know how this morning I said that my car was leaking gas when I was filling it, and I left it at the mechanics? Well, turns out the fucking gas tank has a giant hole at the top! And it would cost $1000 to fix! And there's a chance that they whole underparts could fall apart if they touch it because my car is 10 years old and fucking rusted!
And now I have to buy a new fucking car! >:(

"Is there a doctor in the house?"
I've always been of the opinion that if you can't answer that question with a "yes", then you aren't a doctor.
I.E.
Preacher Doctor
Ph. D. in Computer Science
Ph. D. in Physics
etc etc
Earning a Ph. D. is an impressive thing, don't get me wrong, but I just can't freaking stand those snooty people who eat that title up when they wouldn't have the first clue how to administer even First Aid on somebody.
That's just me though.

I tried installing it 3 more times, but I got the same error each time. I know my hardware is all good, because I just had Windows XP on it last night, then I reformatted.

I'm watching an old episode of Top Gear, and he's talking about this citroen coming with free insurance. How the hell does that work? Does buying the car get you coverage through the car company's insurance company for a year, or is it longer, or how's it work?
unrelated: The way jeremy was talking about the RX-8 in the previous episode, I may have to get one in a few years.

It's just a dell, a 1.5GHz P4 with 256MB rambus and a GeForce2 MX.
I'm trying to think of the best upgrade for him for like < $300. Everything is pretty aged there, but the video is real bad for anything modern. It seems like to upgrade to decent components, it's either $250 or so on a new CPU/mobo/RAM, or maybe instead just a decent video card. (a 128MB 9800/9800pro would be under 200)
I'm thinking that between the two, the overpowered video card might be best. At least then you can have full special effects and 1600x1200 for as many frames per second as your CPU can squeeze out. Sound like a good idea? We're not sure if a full upgrade is feasible yet.
