especially my wife's dog. Oh, and I hate people that finish their
homebuilts. *******s!

I can only hope that eventually you will have a very good reason to hate me
for
the above.

How goes your Cruiser? Hope you're able to finish it soon so I can
start hating your ass. ;-) You worked for HP right? I'm typing on an
HP machine right now, and everytime I called for help, I get an East
Indian who blames everything on Microsoft products (probably true) and
he says he can't help. Big Corporate America really sucks if you ask
me. I think we should break up microsoft just like we did the oil
companies years ago. The courts can't do it, so maybe the terminator
will run for the white house and do it in 2008.

Wishful thinking huh?

The Cruiser is still in the garage but on finiancial hold for the time being.
No, I didn't work for HP but was on contract to one of the Oil Giants who
decided to outsource everything, including their profit making assets and laid
off everyone. The frigging jobs have all gone to India and China now and
finding work in IT is gone. A city of 4-5 million people with only 4 jobs
advertised in last Sundays Houston Chronicle when there used to be an entire
section of jobs.

I am back working now on a six month contract but it means having to spend 4
days a week out of town which leaves little time for anything else and the
money is not worth **** either. Just trying to hang on until the corporate
offshoring bubble bursts and they realize they have given away the farm and the
so-called savings aren't near what they expected.

I agree with you on the Microsoft breakup. It is needed but don't think it
will ever occur. They own too many politicians on both sides.
