Re: The Talk2 List Hey, guys!
So what do I do with the version already downloaded? On 4/16/2009 5:09 PM, Onj wrote: Hi. http://onj1.andrelouis.com/programs look there, for MirandaPreconfigured.exe. being portable, the exe is not an installer, but a self-extracting archive so you simply extract it, run it from wherever you wish, and set up the options. Upon first run, you will have to skip the import/export wizard by simply hitting escape, then entering the options with control shift o. This can of course be changed at a later date. Also, you wil, just once, have to click use classic mode with the Jaws cursor, because otherwise the new option layout is not accessible to you. Differences from the version found on the site are, from the top of my head: *created sounds for the most popular events, such as online, offline, incoming file transfer, file failed, weather alert *added message logging to files on a per contact basis, (see miranda\MsgExport for details) *allows auto-accept of files from your contacts, using a per contact directory scheme, such as miranda\received files\an...@andrelouis.com, assuming you were to receive a file from me for example *added weather plugin to give weather for your city and others you may choose *added the ability to announce online/offline contacts using SAPI through the speak.dll, must be configured by the user *added voice-chat capability to Miranda through the use of MirandaCOM, which allows other users with Miranda and said plugin to communicate, this being equivalent to Microsoft's voice-chat in Windos Live! That's all I can think of, probably others but that's a start. Download is just about 4 megabites. Any problems, contact me offlist for further help, though I am getting married this Saturday so will be extremely busy this weekend. In any case, I will do my best to respond to your queeries (if any) in a timely manner.

This is a noncommercial site operated by Max Robinson and dedicated to passing on and preserving knowledge of vacuum tube circuits and techniques. I will post tutorials on the fundamentals of electricity and electronics, interesting circuits you can build with vacuum tubes and op amps, and I will share some of my experiences restoring antique radios and early electric phonographs. I have a master's degree in electrical engineering from the University of Florida 1966. My early EE classes covered vacuum tubes so I know what I am talking about. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to email me. This site is as blind friendly as I can make it. All schematic diagrams have links to verbal descriptions. I am retired from Western Kentucky University where I taught physics and electrical engineering for 33 years. I entered the University of Florida in Gainesville in 1960. I signed up for my first real electronics course in the spring semester of 1963. It was exclusively about vacuum tubes. Although later courses included transistors the emphasis was still on tubes. I had to learn transistors and integrated circuits on my own after graduation. Throughout my career I missed those big tube circuits. They were so much easier to work on. After retiring I decided to start a web site and try to pass on to the younger generation what I knew. It has been a most gratifying experience. Hardly a day goes by that I don't get an email from someone asking a question or just thanking me for the site. Click this link to have Fun With Tubes: http://www.funwithtubes.net.

I had one little lone CD for the longest time. Yeah, same here. I bought my first CD player that I could call my own for $30 at a hamfest in early 1996. It was a single Sony component thing, and I liked it loads... until I broke it a few weeks after I bought it, that is. It made big obvious clicky noises when you did manual track changes, and the A/B repete function went clicky like a relay on the start and end-points. It had a remote by which you could program things, and a gap button that would insert a 1-second gap between tracks, which I thought was really pointless at the time, especially with gapless cd's, like Abby Road, which was left in that cd player by it's previous owner. I didn't know what it was officially called, so I just called it the broke button. I then bought a crappy Admiral (AKA Emerson) 5-disc changer, which I still have, and which I'm pretty sure doesn't work anymore, for $89. Back then, that was a deal, except for the fact that it sucked. Oh well. By this time, I already had some of my own cd's, but I kept steeling Ryan's portable to play them, since I didn't have one up until that point. Until I broke it just after Christmas 1995, Ryan had this big ol' Sound Design portable thing from 1989 that took 8 AA batteries and had a neck strap, and had a two-hour battery life. You had to flip a stopper switch to keep the door from flying open as you moved, since the magnetic spindel on top was the only thing keeping it together. Absolutely no shock protection at all. It had a digital clock and a dedicated line out as well as headphone out though, so it was worth it for that I guess. Although, people that could read things told me that when I keyed up my 2-meter HT, the clock would go at about 10 times the normal rate.

But here's the thing. I remember having a microwave very early on in the 80s. It had one of those knobs on it. My dad also had those really old Tandy computers and a five-meg hard drive back in the way early 80s. I remember there was a light switch on the wall that lead down to the basement where my dad had his computer and that switch was connected to the power down there. Well my mommy raised me to always turn off the lights. So well, I did. Boy was he mad when all of a sudden, the power was just, uh, gone when he was working. When I was little, I had a stereo with a turntable, an eight track, and a cassette deck. And I could record on the eight tracks and I found this very amusing to record over stuff. We had these old Motorola phones where the part of it that found the channels would sit in the trunk of your car and you had to use these switches in the phone up front in order to find channels to use on whatever network thing it was. When you picked up the handset, you had to flip these switches up and down and wait to hear a voice say things like, Detroit, Detroit, Detroit. I will have to ask my dad what that thing was called. We have video from when I was six, in 1981 and my dad tells me that the quality of the video from those old camcorders was really grainy back then. Amy and I were recently talking about how much we loved Saturday morning cartoons on ABC and USA. I remember when Nicalodion played cool stuff Like Pinwheel and Bell and Sebastian. God I loved those damn shows! That was back in the days of, You Can't Do That on Television. Then, promptly at 8 PM, Nicolodian was off the air. I remember when Friday night prime time TV meant watching Benson and Webster! And Tuesday night prime time TV meant watching Happy Days and Three's Company.

Ah, boring manual frame advancement. I always thought those things were incredibly boring and a very large waste of space and energy. They had those combination projector/tape decks, and some of them had decent speakers, at least, to make up for their bulk and general boring nature, but there are much more efficient ways of doing that sort of thing. Of course, at the same time, we had laser disks. It was fun when the laser disk player decided to play all of the available audio tracks at once, which gives you simultaneous English and Spanish versions of the spoken/dialogue on most of those little-person school things. It was particularly cool when it was based on something that was very obviously in English, like the Apollo moon missions, and there were clips of the ground control, and of course the famous one small step for man thing, which they of course had to let through straight. They did have things quite synchronized, and because of the cool mono tv we had, and the way the tracks were done on the disk, all that stuff just went right out of phase and died, so you were left with some very odd residual things.

The Talk2 List THE HORROR OF LURKING
I got this from another list, and though I don't have issues with so-called lurkers on a purely informational list like what I have, I couldn't help but laugh at this. DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!!! You haven't been LURKING in this group have you? OH DEAR!! Haven't you ever wondered why lurkers are seldom heard from again after they have been removed from a group for non-participation? I tell ya, the truth can be a scary SCARY thing!! Don't let this happen to you Read on to discover the horrors and dangers of being a lurker! Susan was found to be lurking in a group, she hadn't shared a thing for months and disregarded the notices from the group mods owners. After she was removed from the group... The very same afternoon... She was walking down the sidewalk when her panties got in a bunch. As she struggled to free herself from the merciless wedgy she was enduring, the elastic waistband snapped causing her skivvies to fall down around her ankles! She wobbled a couple of steps and tripped over her underpants and fell face first into a fresh pile of elephant poo left behind from a passing traveling circus! The elephant poo acted like an oil slick sending Susan skidding out of control with her drawers flailing around her ankles until she plopped down an open manhole cover and was flushed out to sea never to be heard from again! Ron was once a lurker too. He was a mild mannered midget from New Guinea. He too ignored the notices of participation from the group owners mods. After being booted from the group, he mysteriously went missing for years! Three years later, his shrunken head was found on a bobble head figurine at a trinket shop near the Mexican border! His head was then returned to his family with 20 Pesos and a bottle of Jose Cuervo! John was also a lurker who ignored the owners and mods. One day on his walk home from a long night at his job as the local bingo caller, he was assaulted by a troupe of angry nuns! They pelted him with bingo chips until he learned to share stats and email jokes with others online. To this day, John still has a nervous twitch and freaks out every time he hears an old woman shout BINGO! causing him to fall to the floor and cower in the fetal position under his desk! His therapist also states he has an unusual phobia to penguins now as a result! Fred too befell a similar fate as the rest for lurking in groups. He had belonged to a fantasy group but had not shared a thing with anyone in weeks and frequently neglected to answer his emails. After he was unsubbed from the group, he was sitting at his kitchen table grumbling to himself over a bowl of Lucky Charms cereal. When suddenly his underpants were invaded and overtaken by leprechauns! The clever little gnomes magically made off with his family jewels and Fred then spent the rest of his days chasing rainbows in the hopes of one day recovering his long lost Mr. Winky the boys. He eventually went insane from an incurable case of phantom jock itch! Lastly, there is the story of Claudia. A simple and quiet secretary from Idaho who was very much concerned with her appearance. She could often be found sitting in front of her web cam using it to watch herself apply mascara and lip stick instead of snagging and sharing like a good group member ought to. After she found herself banned from her favorite group for neglecting to participate she became terribly distraught and developed severe abdominal pains! She was diagnosed with acute appendicitis and was rushed to a local hospital. Unfortunately the doctor's handwriting was so poor that the surgeon misread it and instead of removing her appendix, he formed a large penis on her face in place of her nose! She can now be found working as the aardvark woman in a popular freak show in Albania! We won't even discuss what happens when she sneezes! DON'T LET TRAGEDIES SUCH AS THIS BEFALL YOU!!! PARTICIPATE IN YOUR GROUPS!.. SHARE SHARE SHARE! *** [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Did you miss a message?

Anyone who's ever played music with you has seen your spontaneous side. Need more proof? Three words: Things and Stuff. That program wouldn't be what it is at all if you weren't spontaneous.

Pretend you are more sheltered than you are, ask no favors, and don't give to anyone, for anything, ever.

Re: The Talk2 List Nebraska senator sues God
I saw this yesterday. Man, that guy is weird. He said he wanted it to prove a point: that people should not be able to sue over just anything at any given time, or something like that. It was silly.

The suit (. pdf ), filed in a Nebraska district court, contends that God, along with his followers of all persuasions, has made and continues to make terroristic threats of grave harm to innumerable persons. Those threats are credible given God's history, Chambers' complaint says. Chambers, in a fit of alliteration, also accuses God of causing fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects, and the like. block quote end http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/09/nebraska-senato.html Did you miss a message?

Re: The Talk2 List Another crazy ad lib

I love doing those myself, but it's even funnier reading someone else's. Here's perhaps the funniest one I've come up with. The thing with this one is that I found I was always putting in the same words, so I started doing themed ones. This one was themed on anything to do with food. Check out how it starts and ends. It wasn't planned, it just worked out that way: Party On When invited to a party at a cabbage's house, you should always bring a biscuit. This will make you seem especially delicious, and may even get you some baked beans. Don't talk too greedily, and don't ever sit on the plumb pudding. Don't dance too tastily, and don't cook anything that's in the potato. At the end of the party, be sure to eat your host before saying yum yum! and driving home. For anyone who wants to have a go at creating a silly story, but doesn't know the link, just try this: http://www.sundhagen.com/babbooks/adlib.cgi Have fun! Lynn Did you miss a message?

See below. Job Cover Letter I am qualified for this job because I'm charming. I got a college education at rockingham and I majored in hellos. I consider myself very complex because I'm a doob. I'll be working to support my wife and our three gur doobs. I'm looking for a job that pays between 2 and 500 dollars a year. I have experience using helloish waffles and a fwoof. I have a bad-for-you attitude that makes me good for no-helloing. I think these, among many other qualifications, make me the most grumpy candidate for this job.

Re: The Talk2 List CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BLIND
I'm still laughing at that. I love it. I'm sending it to all my sighted buddies. Update your CD collection. Checkout http://www.raineemusic.com. Crazy 'bout beading? Try [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Onj [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: talk2 talk2@AndreLouis.COM Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 7:29 AM Subject: The Talk2 List CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BLIND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BLIND The English language with its wealth of idiomatic expressions makes the following deductions concerning the characteristics of the blind and their daily activities possible They may be excused for being forgetful because out of sight is out of mind. They are very happy; what the eye does not see the heart does not grieve. They are also very affectionate because love is blind. They often ignore things by turning a blind eye to them. They may be ignorant because they are in the dark about things, but do not underestimate them; they've got it all taped. They are very friendly people and like to keep in touch. They also tend to have a real feeling for the world round about them though they may not be able always to see eye to eye with certain situations. They may also sometimes lose sight of certain facts but do not underestimate their vision. Despite being blind they can still look forward to something and see you next week. You may not always be able to make them see what you mean, but they still are able to have their own view. They are not blind to their own faults, nor to the faults of others. You can try putting the wool over their eyes, but you may find that very difficult. They are so good at what they do that they can do it with their eyes closed but if they try to burn the candle at both ends, they may burn their fingers. Their medium of writing is easily spotted, is not pointless, in fact there is very much point in using braille and it is outstanding. Blind people enjoy a social life. However, one must bear in mind that if you take someone on a date, it will always be a blind date. If they have too much alcohol they may get blind drunk. Be warned: their rage and fear will always be blind rage and blind fear. When walking down the street at a fast pace with a white object being tapped about, they could be called hurricanes. An uneven pavement can be a real stumbling block. Blind alleys will not be too much of a problem. They never walk with blinkers on but they walk by faith and not by sight. If you were to come across blind people from Venice they would probably be called Venetian blinds. They are not allowed to drive, but it might be possible, provided they stick to blind rises and go round blind corners. Blind spots would not present a problem for them and at night they will not be blinded by the lights of other vehicles. These are blind facts but I hope that no-one finds the subject too touching and do not be so blind as those that will not see. Perhaps all this has been an eye opener to someone. May we all not lose sight of the fact that we are living in the age of so-called enlightenment where visionary leadership is very important and where care must be taken not to be blinded by things that are unimportant. Hopefully all this has provided some light relief. author unknown! Andre P. Louis Uncopyright, free music, compositions, Web-hosting and the new look to the beyond Radio Network?
