LindyBill: You must have missed one of my earlier posts. Stockyard does not live with his mother. He actually is a resident at the St. Joseph's home for the aged in Mountain View,CA. They installed PCs there about two years ago. It has been great therapy for them. They have a ready source of entertainment--us!

<<This thread is getting hilarious! It goes along for days with us congratulating each other for investing in Cisco, and getting giddy about how much money we are all making. Then the resident "Thread Moron" shows up, stirs the pot, and for the last 43 posts he has been laughing his ass off while he watches us boil over at his posts!>> Anybody read the last issue of Wired with the cover story on the "Woz" of early Apple fame? As a young prankster nerd, Woz invented a small electronic device that fit into the case of a Magic Marker. He'd go into the TV lounge where all the jocks were watching the big game of the week. At a key moment, he'd secretly press the end off the Magic Marker and the TV would go haywire. Woz said he loved to watch all the jocks jumping up and down, twisting the buttons and connections and going into a total froth. I was reminded of the story about Woz when I read LindyBill's post. I have to admit, I kinda' admire the power StockMan has here. Best to all. ; )
