Clepsydra - Hello, TomNine, welcome to the Coffee Lounge.
Clepsydra - Clepsy jumps at T9, and puts him in a headlock, picks him up and turns him upside down
TomNine - Gaily, wake up!
gaily - oh.....I'm awake.......
* gaily was looking for pics of the types of machines she uses at the gym.......
gaily - .....it's a shame you weren't around earlier.....patrick was here
TomNine - Wow, almost an hour of dead chat and Gaily responds right away!
Clepsydra - Time for a change 12:04am
TomNine - Are you gonna buy some machines for your home gym?
gaily - actually......I spent 30min downstairs with the family.....
TomNine - I've met Patrick, too bad no one else was here tonight for him to play with.
gaily - oh no!!! there's no way I could get this type of equipment......
gaily - besides, I don't think that the foundation could handle the weight......
TomNine - Was that Jeopardy or the news?
gaily - Jeopardy
TomNine - Maybe too quiet...
gaily - no.........really???
* gaily looks forward to meeting Tom in September.........
Hiram D. Damn Walker - logged on. --- (Tue Aug 29 12:15am)
Clepsydra - Hello, Hiram D. Damn Walker, welcome to the Coffee Lounge.
gaily - woohoo......Hiram's here!!!
TomNine - Not much non-chatter action on your message board, I see. There are so many boards now on so many pages the new ones take work to find.
TomNine - Hiram, yo!
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Hey! Whats going on?
TomNine - Gaily, I'm looking forward to seeing you too, just about a month from now. I'm sure Hiram will continue to avoid me.
gaily - true.....I don't think that most folks know I have one, Tom......other than chatters, that is.......
* gaily hopes to meet Hiram as well.........
Hiram D. Damn Walker - @ Tom! hee he
Hiram D. Damn Walker - I'm going through the Virginia/Maryland MLS. The outlook is bleak.
TomNine - MLS? Major League Soccer?
gaily -
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Multiple Listing Service - Looking for a house. Can't afford anything good around this high priced area.
TomNine - Ah.
gaily - ........I get it now.......
TomNine - I've been sniffing around to buy also, the prices are scary.
gaily - ....my cousins in Alexandria have recently moved into a new home.....hopefully, I'll get a chance to see it when I'm there.......
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Are you looking to stay in Laurel or another area?
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Alexandria is convenient to a lot of stuff around here.
gaily - yeah....both of them work in DC.......
TomNine - I'm looking to change jobs around new year, shifting to the private sector. I like Laurel fine but I'll move close to wherever I find work, maybe in VA.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Tom - Just remember, the traffic is a helluva lot worse on this side of the beltway!
gaily - ah.....ditching the government, Tom??
TomNine - Gaily, I'm ready to cash in. Hopefully.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - gaily - I heard a statistic about DC the other day that was absolutely staggering. I can't remember the specific #'s, but it was something like - for every 1 person that lives in DC, there are 4 people that work there and commute from VA or MD.
* gaily also left the (state) government for a private hospital......pay was soooooo much better!!!
TomNine - I always assume the VA taffic just looks worse to me because I go there so infrequently I don't know my way around, but I hear the locals complain too. The development patterns down there seem to encourage gridlock.
gaily - I can believe that, Hiram......a lot of the folks I work with don't live in Chicago.....
Clepsydra - Ting; one bell on the Graveyard Watch 12:30am
TomNine - Most cities have daily influxes of commuters. Not many folks want to put up with the hassles and expenses of living downtown.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Tom - I drive around both VA and MD constantly and can definitely tell you that you're right about the patterns down here. It's a mess and can only get worse.
TomNine - Lots of commuting around here now is suburb-to-suburb, thats where most of the jobs are.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Yep. The two major tech corridors are causing hell for commutes AND home prices. (270 and Dulles/Reston)
gaily - gee.....this sounds way too much like the Chicagoland metropolitan area..........
Hiram D. Damn Walker - gaily - At least Chicago is a cool city!
* gaily laughs......
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Tom - Did you use Realtor.com?
gaily - and on top of that you have suburb to suburb commuters as well.....but poorly planned roads for them to use.......
Hiram D. Damn Walker - It took me over an hour to get from Itasca to O'Hare
Clepsydra - Tempus fugit 12:36am
gaily - ah.....travelling one of those 'poorly planned roads'.........
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Yup.
* gaily avoids the 'expressways' as much as possible......
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Tom - You still with us?
gaily - .....oh, Tom...............
TomNine - Hiram, I've looked at a few sites and the Post classifieds for just now. I may end up leaving the area entirely, though most of the jobs where my skills and clearance are marketable are right around here.
TomNine - I'm doing my (surprise!) laundry tonight, just took a break to check it.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - Ahh. I see. Does the post have their real estate classifieds online?
TomNine - Hiram, yeah they have access to the ads on their site but I've just been looking at the paper version.
Hiram D. Damn Walker - I've gotta go. Nice chatting wiht you both. Talk with yall later.
Clepsydra - Cheerio, Hiram D. Damn Walker, come back soon.

Clepsydra - Hello, M.C., welcome to the Coffee Lounge.
M.C. - T hings seen to be moving slow today
M.C. - It took me several minutes to log on to the message boards.
gaily - actually....not many chatters have been around lately........
* gaily had no problems with the message boards.......just that there's not much added to them today........
M.C. - Is this the time you normally wake up ?
Clepsydra - There's a time and a place for everything 07:23am
gaily - yep....I've been awake for about 30 min now........
M.C. - Sorry, had to feed the cat.
gaily - no problem.........
M.C. - You come straight to this website first thing in the morning ?
M.C. - or do you brush your teeth first ?
M.C. -
Clepsydra - Ting-ting, Ting-ting, Ting-ting, Ting; seven bells on the Morning Watch 07:30am
* gaily brushes after she has breakfast....but she does shower first.....
gaily -
M.C. - Nice teeth
gaily - ....thanks!!!
* gaily , however, has been told that she should smile more on her pics.......
M.C. - Can't remember what I did in the morning before I started chatting....maybe I read.
gaily - ....I watched the news....
M.C. - I get up at 4:30 a.m. so I have to be quiet.
M.C. - That's why I wasn't to disappointed the voice chat flopped.
gaily - ah......I see......a problem when there are other folks in the home......
gaily - ah...it was fun while it lasted......
M.C. - You and madscientist(the late ?) were the only ones I could hear clearly.
gaily - yes.....I wonder whatever became of him.......
M.C. - As a general rule do people usually drop out cold turkey or give a notice ?
gaily - well.....most try to give a reason to at least one of the site members.....just in case someone gets curious......
gaily - it's rather unusual for a chatter who's posted a lot to just suddenly drop out of view, though.....without telling anyone about it.....
M.C. - Diana would know, at least if he's still being billed.
gaily - ....now that's definitely true!!!
M.C. - But I guess that's priviliged information.
M.C. - privileged
Clepsydra - M.C., you have a new Private message from gaily
Clepsydra - gaily, you have a new Private message from M.C.

Blaster - Good thanks,Cap,and yourself?
CaptainCorc - OK. Are you day trading yet?
Blaster - Not yet.I've been following,but am to scared to make a move.
CaptainCorc - My old orchard boss practiced for a year before he started day trading.
Blaster - Sort of the same here.......I trac the stocks I would have bought,so far I'd be up a bit,but not much.
Blaster - CSCO looks like a good one.It's been going between 62 and 68 for months now.
Blaster - but there's always the worry that when I buy,that cycle will stop.
Blaster - I think I may not have the fortitude for this ........
Blaster - I know how hard it is to earn and save money.......it takes time.To gamble with hard earned accomplishments,may be foolish.

CaptainCorc - #@$$%%#@@
Blaster - Oh....
CaptainCorc - I'm not cut out for work.
Blaster -
CaptainCorc - Therefore, I'm engaged in foolishness.
Blaster - Do you still talk to Miz L?I haven't seen her here in ages it seems.
CaptainCorc - No contact with her whatsoever. I'm assuming she wants it that way.
Blaster - Too bad........
CaptainCorc - Yeah. Nothing like romance to ruin a beautiful friendship.
Blaster - I guess she dosen't want to see us anymore either.
Blaster - Ha!Ain't it the truth.
CaptainCorc - I guess not. Tex was telling me he talks to her once in awhile via Yahoo chat.
Blaster - She knows we are on your side.
CaptainCorc - You are?
Blaster - Of course! No woman is gonna replace our captain in our hearts.
Blaster - Bet she can't even tie a square knot.......
CaptainCorc - Wow. I'm grateful.
Blaster - I'm glad too.It's open season on ducks now!
* CaptainCorc breaks his double gun for loading....
Blaster - phone
Blaster - I need some type of filter on my phone that keeps ball busters from calling........
Blaster - Nah....better not.......Mrs B will never be able to get me.
CaptainCorc - Ho.
CaptainCorc - You should be so lucky that the phone would be the only way she could get at you.
Blaster - I hear ya,Cap.
Blaster - Worst is when she lays in ambush for me,after I've had a hard day.
CaptainCorc - That sounds awful.
Blaster - I walk in my door ,tired and hungry ,only to get buckshot fired at me.
CaptainCorc - Bummer.
Blaster - It not always like that though.....
Blaster - Somtimes she's not home.
Clepsydra - Ting-ting; two bells on the Afternoon Watch 1:00pm
CaptainCorc - That's good to know. Otherwise life would be intolerable.
Blaster - I try to warn some of the chatters that like dominant women......
CaptainCorc - Does it do any good?
Blaster - Their fantasy of physical dominance by a female can lead to trouble for them.
CaptainCorc - It's OK as a fantasy.
Blaster - Dominant women use verbal abuse instead of the physical domination.
CaptainCorc - Good point. Maybe you could set Mrs. B up in business to fund your trading.
Blaster - How so?
CaptainCorc - Verbal abuse is one of the categories guys will pay $200 an hour for.
Clepsydra - Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana 1:05pm
Blaster - Think so?
Blaster - She is good at it.....
CaptainCorc - That's what I see on the web.
CaptainCorc - Get her a 900 line and charge $3.00 a minute.
Blaster - They are smarter than me! 200 an hour is cheaper than marriage.
Clepsydra - Baby, baby, baby you're out of time 1:07pm
CaptainCorc - Beyond doubt.
Blaster - Well what can ya do.......The good thing about old age is that your eyes and ears start to go.
CaptainCorc - There's always a silver lining.
CaptainCorc - Plus, you can look forward to being dead soon.
Blaster - Next life,if I have to get married.I'll find a gal in a remote region of the world,and never teach her how to speak english.
CaptainCorc - That should help.
Blaster - I wonder how marriage ever became popular?Seems like a bad busness deal for both sides.
CaptainCorc - It's a mystery.
Blaster - I mean MrsB can't be happy howling at me......at least the look on her face is not a happy one.
CaptainCorc - It must have been a good deal for feudal lords to keep their serfs locked in or something like that.
CaptainCorc - But Mrs B never talks divorce?
Blaster - All the time......every argument leads to divorce,but she won't go that far.Unfortunately.
Blaster - Many times I've agreed to divorce,but she backs down.
CaptainCorc - How come?
Blaster - She dosen't really want divorce.She just wants more control over me.
CaptainCorc - Jeepers.
CaptainCorc - I wish I could loan you some of my knack for completely alienating women.
Blaster - @Cap
CaptainCorc - How long have you been married?
Blaster - 15 years this Oct.
CaptainCorc - And how long has it been miserable?
Blaster - Seems like since my daughter was born 11 years ago,things changed....

TwoPossums - Lunch is jsut about over but I wanted to drop in and say hey
Blaster - TP does sombody else use your screename here?
Clepsydra - Ting-ting, Ting; three bells on the Afternoon Watch 1:30pm
TwoPossums - If they do they are doing it without my permision. Why?
Blaster - I was just wondering the significance of two possums as opposed to one.......
CaptainCorc - Don't you remember, Blast?
CaptainCorc - Possum is a pet name as I recall.
Blaster - Remember?
Blaster - Remember ......I'm getting old.
CaptainCorc - How is the other possum, 2p? Heather, right?
Blaster - I thought maybe you and your gal both use the same screename.
TwoPossums - Sorry phone started to ring.heather is doing fine. She asks about you from time to time Captn' and is very upset that you aren't comming to the FVF. She was gonna give you a squeeze
Clepsydra - Time it waits for no man my fate is sealed 1:36pm
TwoPossums - No Heather doesn't use the computer much
TwoPossums - if she does we'll call her Mrs. Possum. Though I was thinking that 'Heather, Bulletproof Diva' is a cool screen name
CaptainCorc - Really? Well, that's heartwarming to hear, 2p. Give her my regards.
Blaster - You should come out here for the FVF Cap.
CaptainCorc - Couldn't possibly afford it, Blast.
Blaster - Oy.Another guy with deep pockets and aligator arms.......
CaptainCorc - alligator arms?
Blaster - They are too short to reach into the pockets..........

Blaster - phone
PJ - http://www.geocities.com/pjbb_2000/PJ-pavla-rear-soft.jpg
-jabber - Blaster, I never answer the phone unless it's FBB's or fitness models...
-jabber - Was that at the posing and performing, PJ? Agreed her rear looks softish - cute, but - you see why I'm not wild about derriere's...
PJ - Jabs what did you think of my two Tonia Villalobos pics on my update page?
-jabber - Not bad - but she'd look better if she did a "-jabberPhotography" shoot.
-jabber - Where is Tonia from, PJ???
PJ - its kind of neat to me that she can look muscular and hard and girlish soft at the same time and from different psoitions...Pavla I mean
Clepsydra - Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time. 2:07pm
PJ - she lives in I think gardena Ca
-jabber - PJ, did you listen to that Ed Tyll broadcast that was told about on the message boards?
PJ - http://www.geocities.com/pjbb_2000/PJ-kruck-bi.jpg
PJ - no I didnt Jabs...anything interesting in it?
PJ - I oppened up the JJ site in an other window...Hold on I will tell you if there are any pics
-jabber - Yes, it actually WAS interesting - but the guy thinks muscular women look like men and can't understand how any guys could be attracted to that.
Blaster - I like her braclet.......out of style though.
* -jabber hands Blaster an "e" so he spells bracelet correctly...
Blaster - I gotta be the only guy in here that notices the jewelry that the fbb's wear.
PJ - Cool Jabs...there are profiles on all the guests on there.......That Candian strong fit girl is Linda Cusamo I believe
* -jabber waits for Blaster's handcrafted response to his PM's...
Blaster - If you think you can teach me to spell ,forget it jabber.Larger institutions than you have tried.
-jabber - Yes, PJ, that's who it was - BTW, I've been doing a "different" bicep angle for photoshoots - than what you did with Ms. Kruck, PJ - we'll see how well it works...
-jabber - Laughing at Blaster about the "larger institutions have tried" - big ha!

Stu - Great, Blaster. Obviously, this time we'll connect at some point. Heather won't be staying at my place due to the Jewish Holiday weekend, and I'm still waiting to hear from Sonia
Clepsydra - Would you believe in a love at first sight? Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time. 2:42pm
Blaster - Where will Heather stay?
Stu - Ok, Blaster. Blu and I sometimes touch base that way during the week
Stu - Heather decided not to come down that weekend for that reason, not much business in DC during the Jewish Holidays
Blaster - bummer......
Stu - Sonia had been tentative, but Heather was right in the middle of the block of time Sonia hoped to be in the area.
Clepsydra - Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana 2:45pm
Stu - Lisa is getting more active, but I never know when I'll see her. She was down the weekend before last and threatened to come down this weekend. Then I've got Lissy from Germany coming in late October and late November
Blaster - How can she think there won't be much bussiness.Every guy in the chatroom is going........almost.
Stu - When Heather backed out of the Oct.1 weekend, she tentatively mentioned mid-October, but I haven't heard further on that score
CaptainCorc - All 10 of you?
Stu - @ CC
Blaster - Is that all we are?10?
Stu - Well, there'll be 3 from the Littman family there, not sure who the other 7 spectators will be

Clepsydra - Hello, StuNazi, welcome to the Coffee Lounge.
Stu - True, that's 4, Tre makes 5, Jabber 6, Blaster 7, can't imagine not seeing BA there so let's say 8, Tom makes 9, Sub makes 10
StuNazi - No Stu for you!
Stu - Please Rob, I just had Mexican food for lunch and combined with the Lasix I had earlier, I'm just sitt'n and trying not to sh'tn
StuNazi - Stu, I was just sorting your photos in my folders and I noticed that you don't get scratches or have weird color problems. You use a digital cam, right?
Blaster - Hi,Rob
StuNazi - Yo, Blastah! Whud up?
Stu - Maybe Andrea and Maria for 11 and 12.
Blaster - Maria Calo?
Stu - I only started using the digital at the Jr USA contest this year, Rob, but I've also used the 35mm. The digital stuff I've uploaded quickly and the 35mm goes directly to Diana for processing and scanning. I did have some color problems earlier in the year, but am now using flash on both cameras
StuNazi - I see pics from dozens of people, but if I were to rate the various artists on a scale of 1-10, Stu's pics would be at least 3 points higher than the others
Blaster - Nicole was gonna go,did she change her mind too?
Stu - ¡Sí, Maria Calo! Es posible. Stop it. It's possible, Blaster. I mentioned it to her before she left for Argentina and will nudge her husband
Stu - Thanks, Rob. I really appreciate that.
StuNazi - Those smas sell for a few K, don't they?
Blaster - I think her husband will do whatever she wants.
Stu - Blaster, I never got a firm feeling from Blu or Nicole about the FVF
StuNazi - Stu, I knew TOPhotoGuy, and you're no TOPhotoGuy.
Stu - The one I got did, Rob, 5K, but I can use all my 35mm lenses with it
StuNazi - smas? Cams!
StuNazi - There's why I don't take my own photos. $
Blaster - jabber's pics are good too.
StuNazi - Did anyone get my Lloyd Bensen joke?
Stu - Rob, before I went in the hospital last December, I put some camera gear on consignment toward the purchase. When I was able to drive, the stuff had sold, ordered the D1 and had it shortly after.
Blaster - Bentsen
StuNazi - -jabber does fine, but his pics still get scratches. His advantage is height. Fewer heads in the photos
Stu - Jabber has been getting good stuff, I agree Blaster. Hiram's also gotten good stuff. Looking forward to seeing his new digital
StuNazi - Whatever. I'm don't think to much of democrat politicians
Stu - Rob, I'm not sure that the scratches aren't a result of the scanning.
Blaster - I see,you must be wealthy republican that wants his capital gains taxes decreased.
StuNazi - I "correct" all the photos I get, and with the exception of a few heads in the way, I never have to touch-up Stu's pics
Clepsydra - Ting-ting, Ting-ting, Ting-ting; six bells on the Afternoon Watch 3:00pm
Stu - No, I didn't see the joke
StuNazi - No, I must be a person who likes people to take responsibility for themselves
StuNazi - It could be, Stu, but the end result is the same. Moe work for me
Blaster - George Bush quote"no new taxes".
StuNazi - Bill Clinton quote : "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."
Clepsydra - Hilary found out she was pregnant. She was so infuriated that she went straight to the nearest phone and called the Oval Office. When Bill answered, Hilary said, "You rotten jerk, you got me pregnant!" There was silence on the other end of the line, which infuriated Hilary even further. "You rotten jerk", she screamed. "You got me pregnant!!" Bill replied, "Uh...who is this?"
Blaster - Bill's not running Rob.Get with the program.
StuNazi - Blaster, what's got up your ass?
Blaster - I'm just playing devil's advocate,sorry.
StuNazi - If you wanna be a jerk and tell me I'm a bad person for my political beliefs, then fine. We don't need to speak to one another.
Stu - Oy, it's 3pm and time to get on the road home...catch up to you all in a little bit
Clepsydra - We talked until two, and then she said, "It's time for bed". 3:03pm

CaptainCorc - Now then, where were we?
Blaster - @Cap
CaptainCorc - Did Diana take her usual August vacation this year?
Blaster - I would think a person would not bring up the topic of politics unless they were prepared to debate........
CaptainCorc - Or is July her usual vacation month?
Blaster - Who's Diana?
CaptainCorc - Diana Ribbentrop, remember?
Blaster - Just a myth I think.Hasn't been seen in these parts.
CaptainCorc - Are we stuck for conversation?
Blaster - Cap,why do you suppose someone would get upset just because you don't agree with their opinions?
CaptainCorc - I don't know.
Blaster - beats me too....
CaptainCorc - Things can get heated, but we should be able to manage to avoid getting pissed off.
Blaster - I agree.Grandma always said"only dogs get mad"
CaptainCorc - Well, I'm pretty pissed off at the Mariners right now.
Blaster - You think dogs can type?
CaptainCorc - I'm living proof.
Blaster - Yanks beating their pants off again?
CaptainCorc - Everybody's stomping them right now.
CaptainCorc - It's disheartening.
Blaster - They were hot a few weeks ago.
Blaster - Cheer up,soon you'll have the Seahawks to moan about too.
CaptainCorc - Yeah, right after they took 6 out of 8 on the road against NY and Chicago the went into a nosedive.
CaptainCorc - Not a tailspin--a nosedive. I don't get into football.
CaptainCorc - Football's too much like wrestling to interest me.
Blaster - Yanks still look like the team to beat.......
CaptainCorc - Could be.
Diana the Valkyrie - yo
Blaster - I gotta go.Nice talking to you again Cap.
Diana the Valkyrie - bye
Blaster - Now she shows up.......
CaptainCorc - This whole Yankee-Brave thing is getting tiresome. I hope somebody knocks both of 'em off. Hi Diana.

Clepsydra - Bye, Blastermouse
Diana the Valkyrie - It's fighting back, but I'm still on top of it
Diana the Valkyrie - https://secure.thevalkyrie.com/members/dvmember30.htm
CaptainCorc - Good for you.
Diana the Valkyrie - Could you tell me if you can access that?
CaptainCorc - Checking right now....it's up, do you want me to enter something?
Diana the Valkyrie - No, just as long as you can see the pretty yellow page
CaptainCorc - Yup, purty yellow page in plain view.
Diana the Valkyrie - Grrr
Diana the Valkyrie - I can't access it via one of the services I use
CaptainCorc - Grrr? That's bad?
Diana the Valkyrie - So I've just spent 2-3 hours trying to work out why it doesn't work
CaptainCorc - Oh. That's weird.
Diana the Valkyrie - I've been messing about with firewalls and suchlike
CaptainCorc - Some secure setting not right, maybe?
CaptainCorc - You must have found a good one. Won't let you go anywhere.
Diana the Valkyrie - No, I've dialled outside my network, and tried to use that page
CaptainCorc - Why?
Diana the Valkyrie - Because I've been messing about with firewalls and suchlike, and I wanted to check that the secure server was still accessible
Clepsydra - Ting-ting, Ting-ting, Ting-ting, Ting; seven bells on the Afternoon Watch 3:30pm
CaptainCorc - And now.....? I can get to it, but you can't and that adds up to....what?
Diana the Valkyrie - I can get to it from inside my network, I wanted to check that it could be accessde from outside. And I was under the impression that it couldn't be.
Diana the Valkyrie - But if you can access it, maybe it's just my dialup that has the problem
CaptainCorc - Well, good luck sorting it all out.
CaptainCorc - Have you been experiencing raids from Planet Doom or something?
Diana the Valkyrie - No, but I hear that that sort of thing is getting more common
CaptainCorc - I suppose. As long as new 13 year olds keep cropping up it'll just get more and more prevalent.
Diana the Valkyrie - I think I'll reboot my Secure Server
CaptainCorc - When in doubt reboot.
Diana the Valkyrie - The latest thing is DDoS
CaptainCorc - And DDos is?
Diana the Valkyrie - Distributed Denial of Service
Diana the Valkyrie - You have a couple of thousand computers, put your DDoS server on each of them...
CaptainCorc - I'm laughing. I'm sure it all makes sense somehow, but I'm laughing just the same.
Diana the Valkyrie - And when you're ready, you tell them all the access your victim at once
Diana the Valkyrie - To the victim, it looks like the world just decided to access the server
Diana the Valkyrie - Which is overloaded, and crashes
Diana the Valkyrie - That's how they brought Yahoo and a few others down a few weeks back
CaptainCorc - Really? And there's a firewall to prevent that?
Diana the Valkyrie - No, but it means that there's an incentive to hack a lot of computers
CaptainCorc - What's the incentive? The joy of bringing MSN down in flames?
Diana the Valkyrie - Yes, I guess
Diana the Valkyrie - It's mostly folks at home getting hacked
CaptainCorc - That would appeal to a 13 year old. But I thought MS already had all the 13 year olds under contract.
CaptainCorc - Folks at home? How does that work?
Diana the Valkyrie - Your computer is connected to the internet RIGHT NOW!
CaptainCorc - Yes it is.
Diana the Valkyrie - That connection works both ways, of course
CaptainCorc - I'm with you so far.
Diana the Valkyrie - Bytes out, bytes in
Diana the Valkyrie - Packets out, packets in.
Diana the Valkyrie - CC out, hacker in
CaptainCorc - Yes....in what form?
Diana the Valkyrie - A program, running as a service in the background
CaptainCorc - What kind of service?
Diana the Valkyrie - Well, it probably won't be called "Nasty hacking program"
CaptainCorc - Granted.

BA - Haven't been here for a few weeks. Anything new and interesting going on?
Andrulla - Im ok BA.. and you
rainerk - Andrulla. Maybe the muscles are too thick on the tape and that's the reason why the tape is stuck
TomNine - BA, your computer problems resolved?
BA - I'm doing ok, Andrulla....gettin ready to go back to work next week
