Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Cool! Thanks you! Just the kind of computer giveaways I'm looking for (especially since I'm still on the dinosaur since Marlboro put me on the no-fly list for the netbook indefinitely)
I couldn't tell, do we need to enter each week again?

We don't have anything on the ground here it hit above us.It was very windy last night,sounded pretty spooky and the electric flashed a couple of times.
My cats were finally all getting along last night. I took them all to bed with me and put them under the blanket. Boo kept trying to escape but the 3rd time he came up begging to get under the covers. Theyre such good little bed warmers!!! Unfortunately I had chile for dinner so that was the end of that!!! At least they stayed long enough to get me warm!!! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Got power. Lake Shore Drive is a parking lot. People stranded in cars for 11 hours. City crews have snowmobiles rescuing. 300 taken to nearby hospital for respite. 185 treated. 70 MPH wind gusts here at Lakefront where I am.

I was worried about my satellite TV going out. So went to Best Buy yesterday morning and bought an antenna for my computer which has a TV tuner. Works great, HD picture, but satellite hasn't gone out.

Got my fleece socks on, but fleece causes static and I shock myself with all the stainless steel around kitchen.
A couple of week's ago I touched the thermostat and zapped it,now it is only showing half the number's,I thought it would straighten back out but hasn't so I will be replacing that.

Quote from rocky08055 :
Is it possible to get live TV on a laptop without an internet connection?
Yes, and very easy to do. For a laptop, you can get either a USB or PCMCIA TV tuner. A passable setup will be around $40, and a really good one less than $100. With that, you can use an antenna to get all of the channels you could normally pick up over the air (OTA), or connect it to a cable box to get all channels that you subscribe to.

All versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7 that are Home Premium or better have a program built in called Windows Media Center. This is a really nice, often overlooked, feature that lets your computer work as a DVR and Cable Box. It's got a great interface, and is really easy to use.

Edited to add: In the above scenario, the only thing you would need an internet connection for is to download a channel guide to tell you what is going to be on TV for the next 2 weeks.
