Real men don't pick up after themselves.

Therefore, it's obvious why this place is always a mess. In that case I wouldn't have it any other way. :)

Another reason I always appreciate the flowers.

Video, definately.
If it screws itself up bad enough, you have an expensive paperweight.
Sound, possibly can lock you out of your own machine.
But it's not insurmountable.
Video is a cast iron *&&@#! if it's screwy.

The Korean war is so interesting becasue of the weather extremes and the many different phases. Talk about a see-saw war.

It was also politically correct because we had the UN's permission to defend ourselves. :)

That's okay, SAM says "real men don't pick up after themselves", so I'm here to say just sit back and relax. :)

The UN and the US also settled for a draw instead of a win.

OH, the old drivers were DEFINATELY gone.
*chuckle*
It's a GeForce 3 Ti200.
Seems there's a reason they aren't made anymore, but the GeForce2 MX400 and GeForce 4Mx400 are.
(You won't see new manufacture GeForce 3's out there anywhere.)

Is it as much of a doorstop as my K6-2 500 was?

And, as usual, we were first to fight, and first to be betrayed. That's why I will trust Europe NO MORE

The french and British guaranteed that if Poland was attacked they would help. Since france had a common border with Germany there was no excuse except for lack of resolve in not coming to Poland's aid. When the Soviets stabbed Poland in the back and attacked from the East, Poland was doomed. She could not fight Germany and Russia alone. Before the attack france kept hoping Poland would give in to German demands and made sure Poland would do nothing to "provoke" the Germans. That was one of the reasons for Polish unpreparedness. france was hoping that Poland would be another Czechoslovakia and avoid having to fight. Poland resistance to Hitler's demands put france into the position of having to declare war. But it was a declaration in name only. They did nothing until Germany attacked the West in 1940.

Evening, all.

"From this story it appeared that there was another group of murdered men yet to be found. A search revealed a fresh burial place, and, upon removal of a thin covering of earth, the men discovered 34 more bodies. Altogether there were 66 dead (exclusive of the seven found in the tunnel) and 23 survivors, some of the latter critically wounded. Two of these died during the night, leaving only 21 who survived. A ROK detachment safely convoyed the rescued Americans and the dead to P'yongyang, where C-54's carried them to Japan."

May they rest in peace.
