Windows is Scary

So, do I even want to know what will happen if I press this button?

And yes, that would be my boot device.

Not enough. Too much Vermont cheddar, not enough fiber & Prep H.

And add mrreet2001 to the 'asked so will never be a mod' list. But maybe he can be honorary #2 on the list for the iPod forum. cool

Re: Windows is Scary

Wait!

This thread title is grammatically incorrect!

It should be "Windows ARE Scary"

Obviously a device used by the Vermont National Guard to track airborne cheese.

I think that'd be the ANG's job, tho it'd be easier with limburger.

And like the old Calvin Klein ads, nothing comes between sturner and his cheese.

Nothing could.

Re: Windows is Scary

Hey, I never said I don't like cheddar. I had it on pizza earlier.

I wonder, tho- will we be reading next that the cheedar spectrum was sold in that auction, too? Maybe it's now owned by the [s]Canadien[/s]Russian Mafia. I had to use optical tracking. big_smile
