1) Use Zune instead
2) Use AVG instead

Anything past that, tell them to suck a dick.

Hey Nev,

Can you recommend some good free Anti-virus software for me?

Also, what is a good way I can get all my music together and take it with me to the gym??

The sad part is it's constantly family members asking me, even though I constantly tell them the reason I never have any problems is because I avoid using pain in the *** programs, not because I'm a computer genius. And now *I* have a pain in the ***. That was a huge brick. Damn. lol...

I made my sister buy a Mac.

Seriously.

Never had a problem after that, going on 3 years now.

Foamy wears this shirt often and everyone has to be a smart *** when he wears it.

Thing is...the shirts are funny but I'd never wear one myself. I mean, it's one thing to share my feelings with people who know what I'm talking about, but if I acted like that with everyone...90% of people would think that I think that I'm smarter or better than them. Or yeah, they would just bring more computer problems to me. Ugh.

Part of the reason I'm no longer pursuing a degree in information technology. IT is one of those fields where despite people actually needing help from a trained professional who has an active interest in computers, they all treat you like a McDonalds drive-thru attendant that gave you cold fries and forgot the special sauce. That and each time an ignorant person innocently asks me a little question they unknowingly open 5 or 6 barrels of monkeys.

Over the phone is the worst. In person its not bad because I can actually see **** for myself, but my lord trying to help an Aunt or Uncle over the phone with their BlackBerry / Laptop / etc is soo annoying. But if its someone thats important to me I'll suffer through it.

My mom forgot both how to copy and paste and how to add an attachment to email.

She was so proud of learning copy paste to.

This happens to me also...but in a little different aspect. Everyone thinks I can diagnose their health problem, just because I am a nurse. Many of my conversations with realtives or people that know what I do, involve a list of their symptoms and what I think they should do about them..

I'm with you, Nev, feel like s******* a brick !

On the bright side, I never have to hear about anyone symptoms.

Taamar – via email wrote:

Here's a real basic recipe:

Day-old bread, about 3 cups cubed
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
4 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
1/3 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Break bread or cube into small pieces into an 8 inch square baking pan. Drizzle melted butter or margarine over bread. If desired, sprinkle with raisins.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Beat until well mixed. Pour over bread, and lightly push down with a fork until bread is covered and soaking up the egg mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly tapped.


Look familiar? I never properly thanked you. I guess now is a good time.

My mother was at the “end of life” stage of cancer receiving hospice care in my home. She had lost her sense of taste. Sweets were the only thing that she could distinguish. There are many sweets in the world but she wanted bread pudding. “None of that store bought crap.” Do you know how many hits Google returns on “bread pudding recipe”?

Khross suggested I ask you for a recipe. You quickly replied to my request with the recipe above. I whipped it up. She declared it “the best bread pudding I’ve ever had”. This would be the only thing I could get Mom to eat before she slipped into what would be the last week of her life.

This is a priceless recipe. Mom was from a generation of Texas women that did not think you reached womanhood until you had a recipe published in the church cookbook. It was funny to hear her talking to her best friend telling her about the bread pudding recipe that the “nice lady from the internet sent to us”. Naturally, the recipe goes to her best friend as "Taamar’s Bread Pudding".

I thank you now from the bottom of my heart. When you sent that recipe, I was beyond tired. Recipe trust… sight unseen.

Every time I scooped up that tiny portion she could stomach for the day, you were my hero.

So I need to email a recipe to someone, but I need to turn it into an iTunes file and scan it for viruses....

Then I need to ask a nurse and a doctor about any potential health ramifications on this recipe...

HELP!!!

;-p
