Time for a point update: Jayeanne - 3pts Mary - 3pts Promise - 1pt Laura - 1pt I have to admit that I was tempted to give Promise and Laura an extra point for having the plant, but then I decided that Mary and Jayeanne actually went to the effort of going to the store and taking a picture, which is a hell of a lot more hassle. So, everyone got a point! Monday's plant: Rose Bush.

To name a thumb-drive: Bring up the "My Computer" panel. All the connected drives and storage devices should show. Right click on the thumb drive, and then click on properties. At the top of the properties panel is a box for the name of that device. It will be blank if the device has never been named. Type in the name you wish to use and then click "apply". This name is written to the storage device. Thus, when a thumb drive is removed from one computer to another, its name goes with it. A name can be changed or removed by using the steps above. To remove a name, merely delete all the characters in the name box and click "Apply". This procedure also applies to floppy disks. This precedure should work for rewritable CDs and DVDs as well. I'm not sure how it works for for "write-once CDs".

I think maybe we are getting it straightened out. I did finally get through to them and they certainly have tried everythihng. Apparently someplace some one mispelled my name and for some reason someone got the credit card mixed up. they had 2 different names and 2 different credit card numbers and codes. A real mess. They have cancelled everything and started over fresh to register. They'll send me an email to-morrow and hopefully it will be all straightened out. From the few calls I did make on it, l was well pleased so think it is good to be determined. Thanks everyone.

I remember reading that...but it's still just as funny.... I am completely surprised that I didn't find a post from me on there...My DH has done a few things during our 42 years that I tell on him every now and then. patti
