Re: How to get info off floppy discs...

I'm pretty sure you can take your floppy disks to Walgreens and get photos printed or get them put on a photo cd. You're probably right, but if there are that many disks it might cost more than just buying a floppy drive...plus then there's that whole issue of not knowing *what* is on the disks... ...

Re: How to get info off floppy discs...

when you don't have a floppy drive anymore? I trid a magic spell, but that didn't work, so I figure there's probably a more productive way [smilie=battingeyes.gif] In unpacking, I find that I have like, DOZENS, of floppy discs that have pictures and various documents on them. Don't care so much abo...

Re: I received this email from Internet wines

It has to go Fed Ex/UPS etc. I'm curious as to how they will package it. When we shipped wine we had special styrofoam type inserts for our boxes to insure against breakage. They weren't cheap, nor were the boxes. So under 20 bucks to ship 3 bottles across the country seems fair to me, considering w...

chippewa wrote:$52.83 for one bottle + shipping :o

I don't think so.
then the price went up since I got it... :-?

*edit*
Wait...you're including shipping in that price, right? Definitely not worth it for one bottle, but shipping for 3 seems on par for what we were shipping wine for a few years ago.

Funny, got the same email but didn't want to post it until after I ordered, lol. :lol: Since a trip to FL is out of the question (airfare alone would make it a pretty hefty purchase), plus who wants the hassle of hauling it back in this day and age of travel/baggage restrictions, I went ahead and or...

Re: going land lineless

Why would anyone want to call Domino's -THAT IS NOT REAL PIZZA [smilie=puking.gif] Yes, there are better pizzas out there ... but they don't deliver at 1:30 in the morning.

Re: going land lineless

this might be an idea, if I could get dependable cell reception inside the house. 1 mile from the nearest tower, but I am in a 50:50 zone. The arterial 100 yards to the west is clearly inside the "call all you want, you'll get thru" range. That's another issue I forgot to mention. Apparen...

Re: going land lineless

When the power is out and your battery is dead, whatcha gonna do then? I still have one basic phone, no electricity required, since many of the ones with answering machines and all cordless phones are worthless with no power.

Apps I have been having fun with...ebay, google and urbanspoon. I love Urbanspoon...you can shake it and it pulls up restaurants like a slot machine. :lol: But the best feature is "scope". Aim the phone at the horizon and it comes up with restaurants in that direction, with ratings, direct...

Re: BN and iphone

It appears to be a problem with only BN...I can access the other boards I visit (that are even more graphics intense than here) with absolutely no problem. So something in the BN software doesn't like the iphone. Doesn't seem like there's going to be a fix coming, either. :-?
