Like I said, no good for you. You'd need help to find it in the help. Sad really.

I wrote to my old co-worker that's still there to see what the plan was and where to send people. I couldn't find basic stuff online at support.microsoft.com either.

Poof, did I send you links to some intro videos? If so, you might want to watch those. I think they'll really help.

Perhaps get a copy of this book to keep beside you?

I'll probably get that. I just threw away 2000 for Dummies.

You did send me a list of videos and they're somewhere on my desk and I'm working on getting down to where they might be.

Okay. Tomorrow. Am I supposed to install Microsoft Silverlight?

Good morning everybody! I'm going to go back and find the Fodor's article. They sited the Biltmore Estate, the Grove Park Inn, the funky urban downtown area, the mountains and the fact that the Prez visited! It was in the Asheville Citizen Times. I'm wondering if the reporter goofed.

edit: The article also mentioned the recent Beer City award. The author of the Fodor's article said the 21 destinations were in no particular order. Reporter messed up.

Good morning Joyner and all who follow.Sunny, 37 with a high of 74 today. We will pay for this next week as highs will be in the 30's with a chance of freezing rain.

Asheville is one of my favorite places, very pretty area.

Mornin'.

Morning Joyner, Ice & G'man, and everyone else.

Good morning everyone.

The sun's shining and it's supposed to get to the mid 30s today. Maybe get rid of some of the snow before we get more.

I find lately that ehow.com answers a ton of questions on problems I have with programs. It is a crap shoot, but worth a try.

"Microsoft Silverlight cannot be used in browsers running in 64 bit mode."

Guess that's me.

Hey, are any of the new peoples computer geeks?

Although it says it should work with IE8 and I have that.

It says I can try to download it. I'm going to wait till you're around to do that.

"System Type - 64-bit Operating System"

Afternoon, folks.

Just because you have a 64bit OS doesn't mean you are running 64bit programs. 99% of your programs are still going to be 32 bit.

I have no idea what you just said or what it means.

I can't believe it doesn't work in 64bit, but I see that you are correct. Either DL the 32bit version of IE, or download firefox and use that.

Hello.

Just install this then get the silverlight pluging and use firefox when you want to use silverlight.

Is it that late already? I should do something productive...

Afternoon all! Got home from the local Consumer Expo an hour or so ago. 2 1/2 hours of walking around and getting my card signed by every booth. I didn't buy much, but took everything free I could get!

Sounds like fun.

I just fixed broccoli in one of McCormick's Veggie Steamer bags. Garlic and basil. Really good.

LOVE Expos. Home and Garden one is in March. I want to look at redoing our bathroom... it's had problems since we moved in 6 years ago. Money's the issue of course, but well, my dad and I built a lot of stuff together, I just need an idea, a budget, and the supplies.

We've got a 4 day weekend coming up in two weeks, what to do?

Oh and looking for a small piano or a keyboard, anyone want to get rid of one?

Afternoon all of a sudden again!!

AZGman wrote:Afternoon all of a sudden again!!

Only until the piano teacher gets here.

I love fish; I don't love cookin' fish! I've never been very good at it.

Piano lesson #1 went well. My friend is so excited to have a student! None of her kids have wanted to learn.

nope! sorry about the delay.

I made the mistake of laying down on the couch and took a little napsie...
