So yesterday my laptop completely went haywire. Upon startup no program will open, the mouse and keyboard lock up and then the screen starts doin' funky business. This happens each time upon startup and I get no where. Nothing works at all. I've had computers mess up before but never like this.
I called Dell and they said that since I bought my computer through Best Buy my Dell warranty is void. WTF? they "say" that the f-ing Geek Squad will cover me, but gosh-darnit (:P) Best Buy is 45 miles from my place. Any suggestions?
LOL I figured someone would bring that up but honestly I resolved beforehand to answer all of them truthfully. Oh well. i hope I never find myself in that situation. :P
OH, YES, +1 frosgrim, 3 pts, whatever, but well done. This story made me laugh for an hour.
BTW, dolfan, careful dude--we need you :P
I mean, really, I would hug the dude who shared this. Thanks a million AHF for the laugh.
I agree with Dolfan here, and I also want to point out that "benhillboy" is a welcome addition to Hawksquawk. Thought provoking, knowledgeable, AND grammatically/phonetically correct?!?! What is this world coming to?
True true....However the Sprite ad does annoy the heck out of me. They even played it during an NFL playoff game on national TV a few weeks ago!
I have the same problem when i watch other local coverage, i.e. Fox Sports Tennessee during Predators game plays the SAME d@mn Preds banking ad during EVERY commercial break. AGH!
That would actually be Joseph Lowery, MLK's old buddy, but not that it matters. I was just saying that a white guy could never ever ever get away with that comment. And I definitely agree, lets just leave all that crap in the past and move on.
Uh, I was a little disturbed in places, especially his little comment "let the white do what is right"--all I'm saying is if that comment had been reversed it'd be the focus this morning.
While I don't agree that he is the right man for the job, I wish him well and concur that it is a good day for America as far as progress goes...I'm just worried about the future.
Anyone else play this?

Like I do really well for eight or nine games then get hosed...I just had to start over and picked the Minnesota Golden Gophers correctly last night, tonight I'm banking on the Knicks beating the wizards, not safe I know but...
Basically, if you get 27 picks right in a row you win a million bucks, if you miss one, you start over. Kinda fun.
EDIT-- the person with the MOST wins each month, not necessarily most consecutive, gets $2,500
So of you remember I'm the guy who can't watch the games on league pass due to f-d up blackout restrictions YET the Grizzlies being the "local" team and all and I went through hell to get my account canceled and money refunded.
Earlier today I was rollin' through the schedule for this evening on the sports channels and lo and behold it says Atlanta Hawks @ Phoenix Suns!!!! So I skipped to tomorrow, and it says Hawks @ Clippers!!!
YES!
Criminoles works well also...
On Tebow, I don't think he'll be that good of an NFLer, but then again I don't think Stafford will either. UF unfortunately could run the table. With Stafford/Moreno gone there really isn't anyone close. I say Florida crushes Mississippi in the conference title game next year.
Hey guys, bumping my first ever post here to ask if anyone would be interested in buying the ball off of me...I know I probably shouldn't sell it, but I really need some cash and I'll throw in my basketball case with it if you're interested. If you want I'll post a pic.
Yeah, it sucked the Fins lost, especially for the Titans because I would've rather seen the Chargers come to town, but hey, the Fins had a great season. Division champs over annoying SOBs like New England and NYJ!
All I want to know is if you grown men really believe in luck?
I agree with Atlas' post above though...fifty wins or x amount of wins is what it is. Its like the Titans. Underrated, but they have the best record in the NFL. That says alot.
