Question

You are fibbing, Har Har. I just checked with my secret decoder ring
and your ISP is in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.......

IOW, you are due south and west of me. Not near the coast at all.
Unless you are counting Lake Erie.....lol.

Now go wash your mouth out with Sunlight soap for fibbing!!!

You're not near the coast, are you, Harry? I forget where, but I'm
sure its not, like, California, or Massachussetts, or New York State,
or, indeed, Washington. Its land-locked, isn't it?

Not quite sure where you're going with this, but that depends on how
far is near.
From my standpoint it is near. Hope that doesn't make me 'locked out'.
Looks a lot like Liverpool is going to 'lock out' MU.

It will presumably have been removed, just like my FF post to which
only you responded was. Come to think of it, you responded to the
so-called so-called spam message too. Not the only one, but the
first? Maybe you're the filter, Harry.

Why would you think that?
I didn't give it much thought, but surely had no idea of it being
spam. What those signs are representing is which I wanted to know,
but no more. For the future I'll mind my own business.
And just for clarification, my reply did not contain the message!
Glad Mike got it sorted out for us.
Also, the FF thing was nothing personal at all. When I clicked on
the
given link my FF browser displayed the message I quoted in my reply
and I put it 'up for grabs'.
Can we smoke a 'peace-pipe' together now?

On broadband, resetting the group is trivial. And broadband or not,
returning messages to their previously Read state is also trivial.

No need to buy Vista, I was only wondering whether it shows up in
other ME systems, or it just so happened to mine.
Thanks for the reply.

about to buy Vista to find out.......lol.

You are fibbing, Har Har.

That's not my style at all. The location of my ISP is entirely different
from my own, which is roughly 50 miles west of Philly and placing you due
north.
I understand you plan to open up a Best Buy in 2010, if the price is right
(supposedly property values are falling rapidly right now)?

Are you flaming nuts?? You Americans started this world crisis and we
are in far better shape financially (as a country) than you are. We
have what are called "checks and balances" on the financial markets and
the banks. And I am damn glad we do.

Some 30 years ago, while I was working in property law, they tried out
these sort of subprime mortgages. At renewal time, people just put
their keys on the kitchen table and walked out. We have NEVER allowed
anything quite so idiotic since.

Grumbling......Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae......stupid bloody names for
crooked mortgage companies....grumble. (G)

Has nothing to do with what I am, Figgs, I was just quoting news about Best
Buys holding off on that purchase in the hope that prices in properties will
go lower.
Negotiations must be pending. And where the financial crisis is concerned,
it seems to be a world wide affair where the Brits and others have just as
big a stake in it as we Americans do. You may have a somewhat better
position nationally, but on a broader scale you are no better off than we
are, since you are closely tied to us (with Mexico closer than any other
country), because of the impending unification (like it or not!).

You deserve an A for effort in that regard!

Your anger is shared by many Americans , be assured, but that doesn't change
anything, many also still love their capitalism, no matter how detrimental.

Cheer up, there are better days ahead, if you can believe it.

I am not quite sure what you mean by this???? We have loads of Best Buy
stores up here in Canada. In fact they bought out a huge electronics
chain called Future Shop, which just might be their undoing.

Perhaps you could enlighten me about what they are purchasing, etc.

Whatever you came up with is wrong, Norman, I am on dial-up and those are
all 'rented' places, if that's the right definition. The home address is a
lot closer to the location Figgs mentioned.

That's were German comes in handy, you write it exactly as you spell it.
I wasn't calling on my own, instead it was an appeasement, when referring to
the Queen. Thought you might have known.

That proves limited knowledge of our situation. At one time prior it may
have seemed correct, but not any longer. His debt-making is only going to
prolong and intensify the agony later on. But if you like him, it's just as
well, he is going to be the first 'New World Order' Leader.
