Greetings! Wasn't there a Twilight Zone story by that name? "Next stop Willoughby"

Umm, no. It all depends on what those processes are. 78 is a bit high though. 35-40 is a very lean machine. 40-50 is most carefully maintained machines. 50-60 Most peoples PC's 70 and up, you should take a look at your installed programs that auto load on boot and get rid of a few. For that matter you should get rid of programs that you can't remember using in the last six months or so. Speeds up your boot time as well! So your problem seems to be related to the browser - firefox and what it pulls up on pages. Make sure you have the latest versions of your add ons such as flash, shockwave ect. Get the latest version of firefox - came out today. Get Suns version of Java, the latest version and install it.. Clean out your old programs, reboot and see what you have then.

Get the "fasterfox" extension for one thing. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1269 Increase your web cache size to 200 meg. DSL is slow compared to cable, so you might want to consider this as a limiting aspect of your problem as well. But check where the problem is using these tools http://www.measurementlab.net/measurement-lab-tools.html Happy hunting!

Putting aside the pro/con versions of who is at fault everything in the USA, democrats or republicans. Which is a self defeating argument and will always go nowhere, I repeat always!! I offer a few thoughts about comments made in this thread. Executive orders have been used by every President I have ever heard of in my short time on this earth. Obstructionism is a word used by the guy being obstructed, stopping a bad piece of law is the other side of the coin. Notice which side you are on determines if it is a good thing or not. With the thousands of laws passed each year that affect anything and everything trying to keep pace with the fact of un-intended consequences of those laws. I'm thinking the less laws passed the better.

Not as much as you would think. Many stories out there of people getting fired/not hired over facebook items from years ago. It happens more than you would think. Bosses look you up on the net just to see who you are. Just sayin'

TWENTY DOLLARS On their wedding night, the young bride approached her new husband and asked for $20.00 for their first lovemaking encounter. In his highly aroused state, her husband readily agreed. This scenario was repeated each time they made love, for more than 30 years, with him thinking that it was a cute way for her to afford new clothes and other incidentals that she needed. Arriving home around noon one day, she was surprised to find her husband in a very drunken state. During the next few minutes, he explained that his employer was going through a process of corporate downsizing, and he had been let go. It was unlikely that, at the age of 59, he'd be able to find another position that paid anywhere near what he'd been earning, and therefore, they were financially ruined. Calmly, his wife handed him a bank book which showed more than thirty years of steady deposits and interest totaling nearly $1 million. Then she showed him certificates of deposits issued by the bank which were worth over $2 million, and informed him that they were one of the largest depositors in the bank. She explained that for more than three decades she had 'charged' him for sex, these holdings had multiplied and these were the results of her savings and investments. Faced with evidence of cash and investments worth over $3 million, her husband was so astounded he could barely speak, but finally he found his voice and blurted out, 'If I'd had any idea what you were doing, I would have given you all my business!' That's when she shot him. You know, sometimes, men just don't know when to keep their mouths shut.

Iran is now a 'nuclear state', President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced this morning. As Gordon Brown warned that the world's patience is wearing thin, Ahmadinejad told scores of cheering Iranians that the Islamic Republic is capable of producing weapons-grade uranium. He spoke as tens of thousands of people took to the streets in Tehran to mark the 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution. Despite fears of violence, opposition supporters found themselves largely overwhelmed by the clerical regime and pro-government demonstrators. The massive security clampdown appeared to succeed in preventing protesters from converging into a cohesive demonstrations. Large numbers of riot police, members of the Revolutionary Guard and Basij militiamen, some on motorcycles, deployed in back streets near key squares and major avenues in the capital to move against protesters. The Iranian leader insisted the material was not intended to produce an atomic bomb, however. 'We have the capability to enrich uranium more than 20 percent or 80 percent (the level needed to create an atomic bomb),' he said in a speech broadcast live on state television. 'But we don't enrich (to this level) because we don't need it... When we say we do not manufacture the bomb, we mean it, and we do not believe in manufacturing a bomb,' he told the crowd. 'If we wanted to manufacture a bomb we would announce it.' ------ This weeks sale: nice cheap glow-in-the-dark real estate in Israel. Next weeks sale: nice cheap glow-in-the-dark real estate in Iran.

Might be worth your while to look up what his place is assessed for. It's public record after all. Might be a lever for all of your future conversations.

1973? I think random seeding of some things was done a lot earlier than '73' Abandon urban lots worked perfectly, allegedly, I mean, some guy said...

Treat your lawn in the fall for grubs. Then you won't have to re-seed every spring. http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&productId=100655849&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=100655849&cm_mmc=shopping-_-googlebase-_-D28X-_-100655849 Home Depot; $20
