I purchased this HP windows XP media center 2005 software to solve the problem I have with the 2002 software on my HP-874n machine. It no longer supports any software that requires Media Player 11, which is damned near everything.  It came today, and when I went to install it I got the message that "this software will not work in your machine. "  JFC. The software says it's for HP Computers, and I have an HP computer.  Anybody know a work around?

Quail Shoot

Hunting with Gramps

Me and Gramps, having milked the cow, headed out to the woods behind the barn for our daily quick morning hunt before he went to work at the coal mine.  I knew when it was time to go back because, even before gramma rang the dinner bell, I could smell the eggs frying.  Isn't that odd?  Not the bacon, but the eggs.  I had the 12 ga. shotgun.  I was 9 or 10.  As we navigated our way through (me) and over (him) the barbed wire fence,  a covey of quail took off.  If you've heard the sound, you know how startling it is. Still half under the barbed wire, I wheeled to take a shot at the birds and only Providence kept me from blowing grampa's head off. While I'd been schooled by him about never pointing a gun at anything I didn't want to kill, there had been no elaboration on how accidents happen.  That was the  elaboration. He knew it, and never said a another word, and I've never ever forgotten it where guns are involved.  My mind winces every time I think about it.   Cool guy my Grampa. Wow, he is getting younger looking every day. Gramps and Gramma (holding her first grandson)

Where we were

Where we were four years ago today

Wednesday, October 05, 2005 “ Today's idiot ... but there may be more. Uber nincompoop Jeffery Feiger, erstwhile lawyer for Dr. Death (Jack Kevorkian), and one-time Michigan gubernatorial  candidate, just now dumped  these pearls on an unsuspecting  Fox & Friends audience. "Contrary to popular belief, David Souter is not a liberal.  He's just makes up his own mind on issues ." "You don't have to be judge to be named to the Supreme Court, but you do have to be a lawyer." Feiger discussed an "ideologue's sphere of influence" on the SCOTUS, and identified said sphere as Justices Thomas, and Scalia, which accounts for Feiger's notion that Souter is a mainstream thinker.  On the second point, Feiger is plain ignorant. There is no such requirement.  F- ”

The Tough-Love Dictator of My Dreams TIME magazine's Joel Stein bemoans that The Him doesn't understand he's a dictator. Instead of ignoring people's objections until they get socialized medicine and realize they like it, as England's leaders did, Obama is worried about seducing Olympia Snowe so he can say his health bill is bipartisan.

Jim Jones: To America Drink Up!

I don't" foresee the return of the Taliban   Works for Obama Doesn't work for Obama Obama's national security adviser Van Jones, er, Jim Jones, this morning appeared on both CBS & CNN to pish-posh General Stanley McChrystal's assessment of Afghanistan. "[I don't" foresee the return of the Taliban and I want to be clear that Afghanistan is not in imminent danger of falling." At the same time, the new head of the British Army, General Sir David Rchards, warned of  the "terrifying prospect" of a defeat in Afghanistan. “ In his first interview as the head of the Army, Sir David told The Sunday Telegraph that if Britain and Nato failed in Afghanistan the risks to the western world would be "enormous" and "unimaginable". He said: "If al-Qaeda and the Taliban believe they have defeated us – what next? Would they stop at Afghanistan? Pakistan is clearly a tempting target not least because of the fact that it is a nuclear-weaponed state and that is a terrifying prospect. Even if only a few of those (nuclear) weapons fell into their hands, believe me they would use them. The recent airlines plot has reminded us that there are people out there who would happily blow all of us up." [Telegraph]  ” I'll say this for Jones, he's one of the very few high level Obama muck-a-mucks who isn't a tax-dodger, or sexual pervert, or racist, or hard core Marxist, or - did I say hard core Marxist?  I also know this. While Jones was painting his rosy picture, 10 TROOPS KILLED IN DEADLIEST BATTLE OF YEAR.  That America will bug-out as soon as battle deaths start mounting is key in al Qaeda's calculus to defeat us; George Bush screwed them up. Now they smell fear, stupidity, and - dare I suggest a kindred spirit?  I'm going with McChrystal, Richards, and common sense.   I'm placing Gen. Jones on Colin Powell Watch status.

In four overtimes too.  Actually, the chyron aside, after getting killed by Cal, coming within a CH of losing to Division II James Madison, and losing for the second year in a row Division II East Tennessee State, the Terps did beat their annual patsy Clemson yesterday.  One more upset and they could go 3-8 this year.
