alvinalaya, My computer, Hal2, keeps swearing at me, questioning my judgement and keeps trying to lock me out of the house. On top of that it keeps calling me Dave and asking me to play chess. On top of that Hal has absolutely no sense of humor -the last kangaroo joke he told me was way out of date. As an example: "A father a kangaroo and Richard Nixon were on a plane that was anout to crash. there were only two parachutes so Nixon took one saying "I'm too important to die" and jumped out of the plane thus leaving the Father to say to the kangaroo "Take my parachute my son err pet err whatever you are." The kangaroo says back to the father "It's ok father the guy that was 'too important to die' just bailed out with my parachute." So I'm sorry to hear about your computer but look on the bright side - at least you don't have to put up with bad, and I suspect recycled, kangaroo jokes. - TJ
