It is done on-line - I guess by Apple. I have never had to worry about it.
My Mac G4 changed... but my MacBook Pro didn't.
One more reason I am glad to have a Mac! (It did not change!)
&&&&&
LOL! I was going to type the same thing until I read your comment.
Comcast Cable must be working with a windows program.
I have done nothing to update my computer and it did not change as yet. Probably an auto fix from Microsoft. I’m running XP.
I just remember being notified some time ago to upload the fix, which I did. Just checked and my Palm XT has the wrong time on it so Palm must have missed updating their program. I’ll double check the other computers too.
Thanks to everyone for the heads up on this.
DiFi and Duncan are supposed to talk SoCal fires, according to Stephie’s pre-game teaser that just played.
Unless he says something that can be construed into something controversial. Then they're all over him, twisting his words, etc. To the press, Rush is the enemy. Whereas Rush Limbaugh is partisan yet (usually) truthful, the press has this veneer of supposed objectivity while blatantly lying, distorting, and slanting the facts.
in this sunday's Media Nuggets
###### MSM Continue To Disrespect Heroes -> Touching Moments @ Medal of Honor Ceremony. (Worth Reading)
###### Twisted Journalism @ Wash.TrashPost -> Misses the Facts in Their Report On Iraq.
###### Media myths about the Jena 6! Local journalist(!) tells the REAL story. Media got most of the basics wrong. In fact, I have never before witnessed such a disgrace in professional journalism. Myths replaced facts, and journalists abdicated their solemn duty to investigate every claim because they were seduced by a powerfully appealing but false narrative of racial injustice. (Read all 3 pages).
###### Fox News Foreign Policy "Expert" -> Exposed.
###### ABC hides Truth & lies! about the biggest auction in eBay history. How soon they forget Rush?
###### Ignore MSM, Respect NewMedia! Pentagon's Realistic strategy to spread the Truth anger left-wing Clintonistas.
###### Newsweek's amazing attempt at spin! Bush administration has now been accused of trying to cover up good news from Iraq. I call on all mainstream media outlets everywhere to join Newsweek's effort to expose this massive coverup!!!!
###### Houston Chronicle to Cut 5% of Workforce, affecting about 70 employees.
###### Tribune 3Q earnings drop 7%! as newspaper ad sales tumble.
###### Israel set to dump CNN.
###### Washington TrashPost! Clue-less, then & now. Greyhawk expose WaPo's David Ignatious.
###### MSM - CW & Reality Check! -> Bush The Big Spender?.
###### Pool Reports (written by NYT-Reporter no-less) mean NOTHING -> if it sheds +ve light on W. S H A M E. There was a time to trust Fox for truthful reporting.
###### Why tax-payer funding for NPR? First, NPR refused to air President's interview with Juan Williams. Now his interview with Justice Clarence Thomas. So, he gets it in Time Magazine.

Id made up my mind that I would not be attending any more monthly luncheons of the Sussex County Republican Womens Club (SCRWC)while they are mostly lovely ladies, I decided they were a bit too, well, feminine, for my tastes.
I think I fare better at the monthly meetings of the Sussex county GOP although let me not fool myself, the SCRWC is a powerful force in Republican politics here in Sussex county Delaware, the largest county east of the Mississippi located in one of the smallest states.
Sussex county Delaware is one veeeery conservative county. Most of its residents came from one of the very liberal, tax-you-to-death-take-away-your-gun surrounding states. Husband and I moved here from Merryland. Others migrated down from the Philadelphia area in Pa now governed by Moonbat liberals with an out-of-control crime problem, or New Jersey, a state where the few who still work must sell their property as the property taxes are killing them, or even New York and God knows thats a state full of Moonbats.
So once these folks settle in the now happening and explosive little county heretofore a mostly unexplored area of Delaware known as Sussex county, they crossed their arms, locked and loaded their guns and dont tolerate liberals much at all.
As expected given the above demographic, Sussex county Delaware is overwhelmingly Republican. Although Delaware does have its Moonbat areas such as Wilmington where the dead vote regularly and almost always Democrat. Delaware is a blue state but Sussex county is solidly red and the states Democratic Governor wont even come down this way because she considers Sussex county, and I quote Nanny Minner directly, hostile territory. Shes got that right. Sussex county despises Nanny Minner and her intention to avoid the area suits most of us just fine.
So Sussex countians are eager to get rid of the Moonbats currently running Delaware to hell and back and what alarms the libs the most, Sussex county has experienced a population explosion that would rival any other in the nation.
Enter Alan Levin.
Alan Levin is the son of the founder of Delmarvas famous Happy Harrys drug store chain, now owned by Walgreens. At any rate, Levin and his dad nurtured and created a very profitable chain of drugstores from a small corner pharmacy. Levin also left Delaware to serve as Chief of Staff for Delawares Senator Roth. So the man has a combination of entrepreneurial and political experience and best of all, he lives right here in Lewes, Delaware in mighty Sussex county!
Levin has not officially announced his candidacy for Governor yet for various reasons. Id only went to this most recent meeting of the SCRWC just to hear Levin talk. There had been whispering that the owner of Happy Harrys was running for the GOP as governor and I decided I would finally get to see the guy, maybe lob him a few questions.
Levin spoke at the meeting of the SCRWC on 10/24/07 and by me he did a fine job. He said he wanted to wait before officially announcing his candidacy for governor to allow the two Delaware dems who want to the job to beat each other up for a while before he threw his hat into the ring and allowed the dems to turn on him.
It made sense to me and I must assume the fellows going to run. I listed to Levin speak and I liked what I heard. Id already heard him interviewed on a local talk show and I liked what I heard then.
But ah, the story does not end here although I include a pic of myself and Levin together cause someday that pics gonna be famous. Heh.
So after Levin speaks, poses and leaves, some other fellow gets up to talk and I wonder who is this. Well go to hell, heres some kind of Republican big wig up and talking and trying to convince us women that the Republican party is the greatest thing since popcorn and we should bow at the altar of the elephant.
Im sorry .Roosevelt and Reagan notwithstanding, those sorry bunch now holding the party title of Republican in Americas House of Lords cant hold a candle to either Roosevelt or Reagan. They are a bunch of entrenched wusses who vote to take away our first amendment rights, want nothing more to be friends with the democrats and are scared out of their minds of Hillary Clinton.
This past week our senate did the absolute worst thing our government can ever do. They used their government power to go after a private citizen by writing his employer a letter and suggesting he be reigned in. I speak of Rush Limbaugh and I dont care whether you hate or love the man, he goes on the radio air waves and uses his free speech and hey, if your radio doesnt have an on/off button than pull out the damn plug! Because no one has to listen to Rush Limbaugh and to have our government try and take away a private citizens right to free speech and pursue his happiness is so disgusting I never thought my country would do such a thing.
Sure Rush turned the whole thing around and made that sorry lot of Lords in Americas House of Lords look like fools but I will note that not one .not ONE, single Republican stood up and condemned those Dem Lords for what they were doing.
Ronald Reagan would never have allowed such a thing.
So after this fellow does his little speech about how wonderful the Republicans are I, of course, had to raise my hand when comments were requested.
Essentially I said the above and know now that I had passion in my voice because just as I write so do I talk. I was pissed.
It seems the national GOP thinks that the Republicans across the fruited plains are a bit angry by how our party has betrayed us. Well duh. We had McCain go and join with fruitcake Feingold and come up with that campaign finance reform mess and it got passed. That was at a time when I thought the Republicans couldnt get any lower until this past week when not one of them had the gonads to take on those bunch of nasty Dems.
I should be proud of them? What more basic right do us citizens have out here in la-la land where were busy carrying this country on our backs whilst raising the citizens and soldiers of tomorrow than our jobs and our freedom of speech? Something a bunch of nasty-assed Dems decided to take away from one citizen who so irked them.
Destroying citizens who irk elected government officials was our founding fathers greatest fear. Someday theyll come after me, a humble Blogger read by two to three people every day. I wont have the power of a Rush Limbaugh to fight back.
And so I put it this way when asked for my comments and this spinner for the Republican partys smile melted to one of despair. He was almost in tears when I got done.
Well my tirade started a landslide. The normally genteel ladies at the meeting all raised their hands to complain as well.
Seems all of hostile Sussex county is damn mad at the Republicans who care more about their cushy elected jobs than, say, actually representing us fools.
This fellow eventually buried his head in his hands and even I began to feel sorry for the guy.
Eventually the bickering and bitching stopped and this guy wanted out of there so bad.
But the storys not done yet.
For he had to pick the winning ticket for the 50-50 raffle, something the SCRWC asks speakers to do .as a courtesy thing.
Two guesses whose ticket he picked to win that raffle.
Okay, youre down to one damn guess.
The six numbers he read were all printed plainly on one of my own fine tickets.
Heh.
Its a salt in the wound kind of thing. I won eighty bucks.
Its as if God himself blessed me.
Heh.
Neither did FNC or Dish change.
...But At Least Clinton Was Willing To Say It
By Austin Hill
Sunday, October 28, 2007
Given the circumstances, no other three-word combination would have sufficed: How Dare You?
That was part of the response from former President Bill Clinton, when confronted by hecklers at a Hillary 2008 fund raising event in Minneapolis.
The story went like this: after making a late start with what turned out to be his approximately fifty-minute speech, Clinton was rudely interrupted by several hecklers in the audience who began shouting at him, and over him, and claiming that the terrorist attacks of 2001 were a fraud.
Even if you havent seen the video, its not difficult to imagine how this could have played-out. Our former President could have easily ignored the hecklers, or could have easily remained silent for a second or two, and allowed them to be cleared away by security officials - - and then could have continued right along with his remarks.
But instead, President Clinton chose to confront the hecklers head-on.
In the face of the fraud claim, Clinton confronted them directly. A fraud? No it wasnt a fraud! he shot back, as the crowd began to cheer him on. Ill be glad to talk to you Clinton stated, trying to bring closure to the interruption, if you shut up and let me talk.
As he then attempted to continue with his address, another heckler shouted at President Clinton, claiming that the terrorist attacks had been an inside job.
An inside job? Clinton retorted, with indignation in his voice. How dare you. How dare you! It was NOT an inside job!

I guess the disgraced/disbarred ex-president realizes that the 9-11 Truthers are actually tossing accusations towards him. If their claims were to be taken seriously, the planning and mechanics of such an event would have to have been started under his reign. Their theories won't cast a very good light on his diminished tenure of chaos and debauchery...LOL
The FNS interview with Laura Bush is very informative. I highly recommend it. They’ve talked about her breast cancer initiative and her role in foreign diplomacy.
Why not invite "Sheets" Byrd on and complete the pairing? Instead of:
......you could have Dodd and Doddering.
Dodd is very upset about the Iran resolution. Although it says nothing about the use of military force (unfortunately), he is convinced that the Administration will use it to go to war with Iran.
Dodd is recreating history. Says he wanted to take time to prove there were WMD in Iraq.
It's also interesting to note that "Stuffinenvelopes" does not kick out on FR spell check. At least, it's interesting to me.
Dodd says we’re arming Sunnis in Anbar to kill Shia.
I bet the Iraqia would be surprised to hear that.
How pathetic the democrat party has become? Terrorists should not be declared as such. War on Terror is myth. Thank Gog all our leading candidates are not that clue-less.
Gog = GOD. Before I even check, mu ‘puter took over me. Sorry.
