I’ve had some major computer problems lately. First, the monitor on my laptop went out. No problem – I just hooked it up to my PC monitor.
That worked for day.
Then the hard drive on the laptop went south. No problem – I’ll just use the old Windows 2000 machine.
That couldn’t connect to the internet.
I went to the bullpen, and brought the Windows 98 tower out of storage. That didn’t even start.
Tonight I figured it out.
I took the ethernet card out of the 98 machine, and put it into the 2000. I had to connect it through a PCI slot because the original was built into the motherboard. I ran ipconfig in the command prompt, which showed the LAN was able to recognize the MAC address. And finally, the TCP/IP was able to communicate through my cable modem to the internet.
But I’m telling you something you already know.
By the way – The SOB doesn’t load properly in IE 5.

I found something very interesting this morning in my bathroom sink – 2 long strands of brunette hair.
Let’s see if we can figure this one out. The last person to use the bathroom is the same person who complains about me not cleaning the sink.
Very interesting.

I’m glad to see everything’s alright with you.
