[OT] partially . . . They finally figured it out! by
Ginger-lyn
It only took two family practitioners, one neurologist, and an ER team,
but they finally figured out that I have a fractured hip, and a
dislocated hip/pubic bone (although I think they said that managed to
pop back into place on its own.) They think it happened a few weeks ago
or so -- in...

[OT] PC Network Help Needed Please by
Pat[_2_]
The task before me is to figure out how to hook up two computers (mine and
Dave's) to use the same internet connection. I have a router but am not sure
what has to be done and my ISP says it cannot help. They did say the modem
has to be "put into bridge mode" but I have no idea what that...

[OT] Peeved by
CatNipped
I'm really aggravated at Dateline NBC who is doing a 2 hour piece on , the man who shot John Lennon. The whole reason he murdered
John Lennon was to get some sick sort of fame for himself. I wish we could
have put him under the prison for the rest of his life and never once
mentioned his name. ...

[OT] Pepper's breed by
Yowie
At first I thought she must be a chihuahua-cross because she's so little
and has that slightly bulgy eye look that is more prominent in
chihuahuas, but on researching it more, it appears she's quite possibly
a purebred rat terrier. She looks so much like these dogs, along with
the ever so...

[OT] Photo Editor by
Yowie
Can anyone recommend a "free" photo editor I can download? Fully functioning
shareware is good, but the stuff that has a free trial period then refuses
to work is worse than useless as they rarely uninstall neatly, and I don't
have alot of hard drive space left.
The most important features for me...

vaguely interesting:

These are amazing 'before and after' pictures, taken from fly-overs of
exactly the same spots before and after the waters rose.

[OT] pictures of clouded leopards by
John F. Eldredge
I have just posted a message in alt.pictures.binaries.animals, titled
"clouded leopards at Nashville, Tennessee zoo". Due to its large
size, the message actually posted as several parts, but will be
recombined when you read it. These are beautiful cats, with ring
patterns on their sides that give...

[OT] Piercing Question by
CatNipped
OK, next Saturday it will be 3 weeks and I should be able to take out the
"placeholder" earrings and put regular earrings in. My question is, when
are your ears supposed to stop hurting? They're not hurting badly, but they
still hurt when I rotate the studs like they told me to. I'm still...

[OT] PING - The Poster formerly known as Wafflycathcs - re bites gone ugly by

Hi Helen, I'm a part-time lurker, although not much at all lately, in
this group and I've been searching for information on spider (or other
unknown creature) bites. I ran across a post from you back in 2001 that
sounds similar to what has happened to my granddaughter, Madison. I was

[OT] PING Marina by
[email protected]
Marina,
I sent you a couple of emails - just wondering if you got them. I
didn't hear back and I wanted to make sure I was sending them to the
right address. I used the address that you generally post from, the
yahoo.uk address. Do you use a different address for emails?

[OT] Ping Monique - Thanks! by
CatNipped
I *LOVE* the Camelbak. It's so much nicer than having a canteen swinging
from my neck. Thanks for clueing me in on this (and especially the tip
about getting one to fit a woman, it was *very* comfortable).
I had a new best today - 28 miles in less than 2 hours. I could have gone
longer, but...

[OT] Ping Victor by

I'm watching Ellen and she has Matthew McConaughey on. He says he has an
Airstream that's in a trailer park in Austin that is sort of his "base".
Just a "heads up" to let you know to keep your camera with you when you go
to the local Sav-a-Center - the only reward for the alert is... I want
copies...

[OT] PING: Good cooks (meat) by
[email protected]
I need advice on cooking a boneless pork chop. Yes, it's true - I've
never done it before. For someone who's been on her own for 35 years,
I know very little about cooking most meats. I can cook chicken and
ground beef or turkey, and fish (eg, salmon, not shellfish), and that's
about it. Oh, I can...
