    Looters in New Orleans

    I can maybe understand looting (robbing, stealing)from a grocery for food, but all these other acts of stealing tennis shoes, etc. is beyond me. I'm watching Fox News and see these animals looting and I say the heck with any aid to these idiots. Shoot to kill. Simple answer

Would you repair or look for a new (used) boat? When I say money is no object, I mean that I can afford to buy another boat with cash.<br...

    Storm Damage

    We had severe straight line winds come through here yesterday. Watched as a 40 foot cedar tree was pulled out of the ground. I lost 4 trees completely and had damage to 5 others. <br />I guess it's time to get the chainsaw out and get started on the clean up. <br />Sure hated to lose those trees.

When I found out I had to...

    Increasing RAM on my PC

    I currently have 95MB RAM and am wanting to increase that due to switching to DSL in the near future. Would 128MB be about right? I am running Windows 98 SE. Sorry if I'm vague, but I'm not very "computer literate". Thanks.
