manodogs I love Purple Rain, though I am conflicted as to whether or not it is one of the great music films of all-time. The soundtrack is easily one of the best of any movie (and deservedly won an Oscar), but the movie is pretty pedestrian. Still, it has a...

manodogs I think all 10-year old boys would become HUGE fans of Purple Rain if they watched it. ;c)

manodogs Horror is a very broad genre, so it's hard to suggest anything without knowing more about you and your tastes. Some people enjoy "splatter fiction," while others prefer something more suspenseful, with "off-stage" deaths. Some people like reading about the...

WHY? I loved the show. It was different. I thought it was doing very well. I did hear a rumor that it might be moving to ABC or Fox. Why does NBC keep canceling programs that seem to be doing well.

manodogs Earl is completely dead... TBS tried to save it at the last minute, but could not afford to do so. They said the only budget they could afford would have negatively affected the quality of the show and they did not want to do that.

manodogs ABC is far worse, but I also thought Earl was doing well - I know it was at one point. It even went into syndication; some cable channel was showing it during the day at one point. I also heard it might be moving to another network, but nothing else...

I am a wiz at creating, I really am. I can develop interesting plots, characters, and narratives in no time at all - I sit and start writing and it seems to just pour out (usually, anyway). But when it comes to...

manodogs It really does. I move entire sentences and paragraphs and so forth around in editing. For the most part, it results in a stronger work, but like I said in the question, it sometimes weakens it.

I don't know if this question has been asked before, but is there anyone who actually thinks Vista is actually an improvement over XP, or at least just as good? Everyone I talk to hates it, and I do, too. When I needed to get a...

manodogs This is precisely why I intended to hold-out and stick with XP for another year or two! I was right in the middle of the entire 98 - 98a,b - 98SE - Win2000 - WinME, etc., etc... It was frustrating, upsetting, and downright expensive! There's no way...

manodogs Well, I actually tried to buy a computer with XP pre-installed, as opposed to Vista. At the time, they only had 2-3 and they were the last of the XP pre-installs left; once they were gone, everything else would be Vista. I decided it would be silly to go with...

manodogs No kidding! Actually, I work online, so I technically, really cannot live without my computer, but even if I had an offline job and/or a job outside the home, I couldn't go without it. I don't use a cellphone but I've accessed stuff from other people's...

manodogs In what OS? It depends on what operating system you are using. If you don't want to use the Start folder, you can either hack the registry or set it in the Task Scheduler. If you have the RAM and resources, the second option is the best way to go; if you...

manodogs I had exactly the same problem with software. But I got Vista pretty early-on. While there were a lot of programs - even hardware - it didn't support then, I'm able to use just about everything I need now. You really shouldn't have too many issues these...

manodogs Vista has its problems - like I said above, UAC is absolutely... if I'd known about it, I wouldn't have gotten Vista - but I like it better than XP, too. It takes a while to familiarize yourself with the layout and everything, but once you do, it's pretty...

manodogs Yes, the whole UAC thing is a real annoyance... no, not an "annoyance" - it's an actual hassle. I am afraid to completely disable it (which is very easy to do) because everyone talks about the security issues, but I'm getting to the point that...

manodogs I don't know, I agree to some extent but disagree at the same time. When you first get Vista, it's almost impossible to find anything, depending on how heavily-customized your XP setup was. But once you get used to the layout and all that, it's...
