Davey..I tried that..the problem is before windows n the whole comp crashed <lost everything> it had 256 colors..now it only has a choice of 2 or 16 colors...is hard to even look at or read anything at those settings..so what i need to find out is how to maybe update it or where to go to fix this..after loading the windows 98 2nd edition baack on the computer i ran the cd restoration disk which added a few drivers that were still missing and still no help..i went to microsoft.com and was looking to see if there was anything there that i could find to fix it..but no luck and havent had time to complete my search..so if anyone knows what or how or where to go to fix this problem please let me know cus it is unbearable to look at. Thanks in Advance.
And just let me know when u are here...there are some really great lil cafes in between catalina n florence or even in oracle..they might not have mt dew but i guess i could settle for a coke lol

Morning y'all.
Well the 1100 Thursday flight finally made it in at 0315 Friday and another one showed at 1400. Friday was a real long day. A couple of beers and a small pizza made nice sleeping pills and down I went.
A real tear jerker story for y'all to give you an idea of the spirit of these young kids that are in uniform today.
While one of the plane loads of troops were in formation at the welcome home ceremony, a young man in his mid 20's came walking in onto the gym floor. His walk was a bit wobbly, but his back was straight and he came in without the use any aid. Looking below the shorts he was wearing was the glint of not one, but two artifical legs. He had lost one just below the knee and the other above the knee. He had gotten released from Walter Reed to come and welcome his fellow squad and platoon members home. Talk about a modern day Band of Brothers. The entire gym went nuts. I couldn't see if there were many dry eyes out there or not. Mine were rather misty themselves. It took a lot of balls for this kid to walk across the floor. I talked with him the next day and he has the best attitude of anyone I've ever seen. He looks at the loss of his legs not as a disability, but as a challenge. He told the people at Walter Reed that he was going to meet his friends, whether he had to go AWOL or not. The hospital put him on TDY orders until 10 April. What an inspiration.
No more planes till tomorrow, then we get two in. We should have the first ones finished outprocessing Monday. As soon as we get a bus full, they are headed home. Those that have families here will be released to their families. Lots of happy people out there.
Time to get the day started. Briefings are over and the medical screening starts this morning.
Hollar at y'all later.

Busy day today. Lots of National Guard units in, plus the State AG is supposed to show. Lots of dogs and ponies, looks like a three ring circus.

2-3 inches of white stuff last night, calling for "maybe" a couple more tonight, or rain, or ??

Ed, our min-pin (puppy) yea, I know, but I can remember it, absolutely refused to leave the house this morning. Hid under the bed, so left it to wifey to get him out.

Dang dog is smarter than me.

Looks like my luck ran out dodging the "BUG" that the wife and grandbaby been swappin back and forth for the last couple weeks. :( I went in on a call-in to work thursday night feeling fine at midnight.......... 0100 = [yuk] ,,,,,,,, like someone flipped a switch! I was suppose to work my old job until 0800 and then training on the new job till 1600,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, NOT! ,,,,, I made it until 0750 and couldn't stands no more. Came home and went to bed where I stayed until the next morning. I did make it in for friday training, but it wasn't pretty. [eyecrazy] Looks like the weekend will be spent trying to re-coop,,,, Note to self,,,, A little less bragging about how "I don't get sick" may be in order.

sherod 03-12-2005 12:40 PM

Thats how it got me. I ate supper and watched a movie, then went to bed fine. 2 hours later I was laying on the floor next to the thone. Get to feeling better, but take your time. Took me about 3 days before I felt "good" again.
