First it's Windows... Now it's your power grid. HAHA They must be running windows. Haha CA electrical problems are pretty bad. My electricity bill has pretty much quadrupled in a couple of months. $200+... That's normal these days. I'm never home when the rolling blackouts hit; I'm always at work, and the company has a deal with PG&E to keep power on. I mean... If power goes down, so does the internet portal side of the business. IT's a no-no. But in turn... There aren't any lights on in the buildings all day. So it's fairly dark/ >> HAHAH!!!!

MacOS X is Unix. :) Been using it since it's Beta last November. > Yesterday as I was heading home from the city on a back road that had two > lanes, > I got stuck behind a camper going about 35mph.

It looks so understated.... No one really expects it to do much... And then "BAM" >> Got back to his place... And I was screaming at him.. "What the F**k >> were you trying to do!!!" He responds, "I just wanted to see what your car >> was made of." I should have ripped him a new one. > Yeah, and if I were you I'd be leary of letting him drive it. He has as much chance of getting behind the wheel of my Aero as I have of getting behind his S-Type. > The female ego too! Like yesterday..... > I mean WTF?! > So? I'm a jerk, I passed on the right - get over it! HAHAHA >> What do you mean by "Standard?" > Verses automatic, transmission. Automatic. I chose the auto because I thought the Manual was a little hokey. The auto's the smoothest that I've found in a while. Plus have a manual tranny in SF is ridiculous. You go through a transmission in about year. >> OH YEAH!!!! It looks like an impressive sport sedan. I wonder how much >> HP Cadillac decided to put in that thing. And hopefully, it feels as solid >> as comparable European makes. > Anything new like that really needs to work the bugs out - there is always > something. Well.... We shall see about that. :) I give GM more credit with quality controil than I would Ford and Chrysler. >> He passed away when I was 2 yrs old. But my aunts and my parents taught >> me how to cook. I have a natural knack for cooking. I love cooking. > That's great! I do too, the Italian thing. Ditto too. >> What's really weird tho is that all my buddies from college enjoyed cooking. >> I thought (and still think) that's pretty uncommon. > Yes, I agree. It's usually Kraft Macroni & cheese, and hotdogs and chili out > of > a can. I love MacNCheese. You should try Kraft.com, it's got some interesting recipes. >> I mean..

I remember one of the >> last meals I did was lamb in a zinfandel marinade. > Oh yum! Did you guys read Bon Apetite or something?! :) :-P Ha Ha >> nite -- right before FOX Sunday nite (Simpsons, X-Files, etc). We'd cook >> something and polish off a case of beer. HAHA > Ah, but with good food, you need good beer. I don't drink Macrobrews. I'd rather drink water. -- Marc Escuro mgescuronopsam.com http://home.att.net/~bryesquire "...when all hope is gone, you know sad songs say so much..."
