  1. I vote for this to go in the calendar (it always cracks me up) - maybe end-page!!! Double-honk if you can name the cachers!
  2. I know the one you are speaking of as well and I have the picture. Do you have a high-resolution version of that shot? ... keep it. Harmon - please "put" some clothes on him!!! The only problem, is he would have to stare at the picture for a while as he edits it..... it's kind of like looking at the sun. and besides.....You know I'm dead sexy! I am selling prints for $5. Is he pulling the cache out of his swimtrunks in front of those little girls???

  4. Something funny that I got in my e-mail today: The bathtub test During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director how do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized. "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub." "Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup." "No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"
  5. So what do you know that the rest of us have been dying to figure out? Does he or doesn't he? (Only his hairdresser knows for sure... ) Does he or doesn't he... wear anything under his kilt?
  6. Wow! - This thread turned out to be "Hiking poles - the thread about nothing!" Sort of reminds me of a TV show from the last century - slightly amusing with no substance. Harmon, I - No, scrap that - we all are waiting for your response to Eric's pics! Load them into Photoshop and out comes....???

  11. A simple way to get him to remember would be to have him to eat a bunch of crackers in bed one night. Then ask him the next day how well he slept. Civilized people (Northern Europeans) eat at the table!
  12. Here's a good chuckle... ----------------------------------------------- Abbott and Costello 'How to buy a computer' You have to be old enough to remember Abbott and Costello, and too old To REALLY understand computers, to fully appreciate this. For those of Us who sometimes get flustered by our computers, please read on... If Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were alive today, their famous sketch, "Who's on First?" might have turned out something like this: COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT. ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you? COSTELLO: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking About buying a computer. ABBOTT: Mac? COSTELLO: No, the name's Lou.

  18. I have a problem loading a detail map from Mapsend to my eXplorist SD card. I'm following the instructions and this is what I do: - I save the the MapSend map region to my hard drive - I upload it to my SD card via Magellan Conversion Manager It starts up and locks up for a while and this is the error message I get: "The specified I/O operation on \Device\Harddisk1\DR12 was not completed before the time-out period expired." When I cancel operation I get the following error: "An error occured while copying file C:\Program Files\Magellan\MapSend Topo 3D USA\Export\Images\Missouri.imi." Any ideas? I have uploaded detailed maps once before without a problem.
  19. Wooo Hoooo, by the year 2010 I plan to have 400! Hmmm.... Looks like you're picking up the pace all of a sudden... That's right - no slacking now when you are on a roll!!!
