No no no, you don't get off that easy. For entertainment purposes this thread needs to accumulate at least three pages of good jokes at your expense before it gets put out to pasture!

I'd rather just merge it with the Drunk Thread.

Adopt a puppy! Hug your kids! Goodie gumdrops!

You must have been in that phase of drunkenness where everybody's your best friend and you go around hugging people saying "I love you man!"

Like that Simpsons episode where Bart and Milhouse are both drunk and Milhouse points at Bart and says "This guy here...this is the guy" and puts his arm around him.

Matty has enough trouble getting people to donate to this site, why would we think people would donate to others' dreams?

Oh, I am so setting up a different set of permissions for myself for night time use on my home PC...Do they have breathalyzers for CPU's?

LOL! I have been there, that is a good place.

My one buddy from childhood, he is like that ever time he is drunk. He probably an alcholic but no one wants to help help becasue he is such a fun guy when he is drunk.

I like how Angry thought we could just start this fund and anytime someone wanted to make that dream come true could just take out a loan. Now I wonder how many of those loans would be made after 1am and would we have a loan application asking for the reason behind the loan?

You probably would have taken out a loan and invested in some type of computerized spelling and grammar checking program.

The sad thing is that you probably already have Microsoft word on your PC.

the best post in this thread is NOMADS (2nd post like a few minutes after the orginal). this guy joined this site two months ago and has dreams of making it into a TV show. NOW THAT IS COMEDY FOR YOU.

Use Firefox, this about the one millionth time I have told you.

Using Microsoft Word for Spelling and Grammar Prior to Posting

First you type whatever you want to write into a word document. Word will underline misspelled words in red. Word will also underline incorrect grammar with a green line. If you right click on these lines highlighting your mistakes, then word will give you suggestions of proper spelling and grammar. You can then select the correct words from a drop down list of suggestions. After you have made all of the suggested corrections it is a good idea to proof read what you wrote at least once more. After you are satisfied with what you have wrote you can copy your text from the word document and paste your text into the reply box. The rest you should already know how to do.

The alternative to performing the above steps is to use Firefox as mredskins pointed out.

Hell I'd rather have spelling errors then to go through all of that. I know mredskins says use firefox but I don't even know what it is. I have a guy coming into the office in the next couple of weeks to help us learn how to scan documents into the system so we can save them, email them, etc.. So I'll ask him if he can show me how to set something up. My problem is I'm not a big computer guy and have never really learned anything past the basic stuff to use the one I have at the office. One of my goals this year was to start using more of the programs in our system to make thing easier and I'm starting with that in a few weeks. I'm stuck between old school and new school and because I did not really like computers much I stayed more in the old school. Look at my posting history and you don't see me post much after office hours because I don't use a computer much after work.

Mozilla Download
Here is a link to the download page, Firefox is a browser just like internet explorer, only better. click on the link, download and install it, and try using it.
