In terms of customer service, you should offer me precisely double what I paid for the right to spam this thread.

My 13 year old computer gave up the ghost. I read this story about washing keyboards in the dishwasher and it worked great....so I tried on the computer too.

You don't know what you've done, Cap'n. Aren't you worried about rearranging your computer's inner chi? And just when things were looking up for the Arries too!

I tried that, but all I got was this...??? A server problem perhaps?

ETA: Your marketing department needs to do something with this. Having a hot brown ass-themed liquid near my nose ain't cuttin' it for my coffee consumption.

The real worry is if Che took up residence in his computer.

Well, if while loading troops up on an amphibious op, he got a response such as, "The workers control the means of production, not some bourgeois CB unit!" or "The struggle of the urban proletariat dictates additional supplies be loaded!" that would be obvious.

Hmmm...on second thought, that would only be the case if his computer got Marx (double entendre, get it?) on it from the dishwasher.

Alright, someone better post some WWIIc-related information soon...

If your computer is so darn broken, how can you still post here?

Because I'm at the library....duh.

The advantage of this is the FBI can't track your IP number. The guy next to me on the left is kind of swarthy and is googling "PETN". The guy on the right is a middle-aged guy with a bushy moustache and is getting kind of angry because all the child porn sites are blocked. Fortunatley, Matrix is not blocked. They probably think I am some kind of wierd Keanu Reeves fan. Anyway, better get going before the men with the E plates show up.

I can tell by their fine physical condition that they will make things hard on the enemy ... bound to affect his ability to march or perform combat tasks.

Edit: PS - tell the recruit in front that the rifle is not to be fondled with spread fingers, but gripped firmly in the fist!

I nominate the recruit on ourt extreme right for a commanding position!

I am using Stalker Girl's computer but can't find by AE disc to install.


Meanwhile, it is established Mr. Chang is trying to end the recession by himself. He has half of Morelia working up there. He installed this absolutely tasteless putting green with artificial grass. It must be at least 5000 sq ft. I shudder to think how much it cost..they had to build a huge form, pour conrete, bring in sand, compact everything...and the guy does not even play golf.

He is either an early investor in Facebook or he has slipped into a manic phase.

If you have bought AE as a download via the members and shop at Matrix, your game might be registered automatically. Just give it a try and log in at the members area.

Your serial number is also in your Matrix file on your hard disk, if you can access it. Bring it in to work and let IT prove to you how valuable they are!
