Hey, some dog food isn't terrible. I first tried it after seeing
The Road Warrior when I was about three. To this day, I won't feed my dogs anything I haven't tried first.

So, Google Chrome has stopped working for most of my sites, it just brings them up bad. It seems to not load them correctly, I'm not sure why, although I'm looking into very deeply. However for the time being I am using IE9 BETA, which I actually like a lot, it's snappy and it's polished, something that Microsoft isn't known for.

Hey guys, is there a way to use Task Scheduler to set my computer to do a AV scan at X time Y times a week?

Since Chrome updates itslef automatically in the background, might there be a bug in a recent update?
I've played with the IE9 beta myself -- it does have a very clean interface and seems quick, though I still do most of my browsing in the Firefox 4 beta, at least at home (the work computers only have IE8).

There is a way to do it, I just can't remember how to do it.

My parents love to tell people about the time they caught me eating dog food. They asked me if I was a dog and I woofed at them.

My wife's just ordered her new car. It's a Honda Jazz (looking at the US Honda website they call it the Fit over there). It's about the size of a Ford Fiesta on the outside but a good 40% bigger on the inside. Yes, you guessed it, it's a Tardis
With a 98bhp 1.2l petrol engine it's very economical too. It claims 0-62mph in 12.5 seconds, 42.2mpg Urban, 60.1mpg extra-urban, 52.3mpg combined. OK, the 0-62's nothing compared with my BMW Z4 which does it in 5.9 seconds, but for a little 1.2 it's pretty decent.

That's why our cars use smaller engines, so we can afford to run them
. When petrol around here is about £1.20 (near enough $2.00) a litre, you need it. Plus, there are a lot of people that never ever go on a motorway. my own mother hasn't driven on one in years, besides once last year.

If that were literally true Honda would have created a whole new physics. Maybe they're using it to make a warp drive right now...

That is not the Honda Fit. Close, but about 6 inches shorter (length) and better gas mileage... and smaller tires. That specific model is not available here.
Cute though.
