The Resetter 5000. - Anika

I always get peeved when someone "cleans" mine from my desk. I almost always have one or two sitting around. - Jennifer Dittrich

eject that diskette from yr Mac Plus! - Joe Silence is not dead

It surprises me that anybody here uses a machine with a diskette drive let alone actually put a diskette in a drive. - Brian Sullivan

Or CD drives or DVD drives or resetting routers, modems, anything made post 1999 with internal ROM... - Michael W. May

amen to that! - Morgan Haley

@Brian: some of us still use some "legacy" hardware. i have a couple of machines with ISA slots that get fired up regularly cos they run things i need that have no modern analogue. - Joe Silence is not dead

MacGyver™ - AJ Batac

I still hold on to the stylus for a long dead PDA simply because the tip pops off to reveal a reset doohickey. - Mark Jepsen

I think we have one machine around on our network that has a diskette drive -- but it is a dinosaur in computer terms and it hasn't had a diskette in it within recent memory and I am not sure we even have any. - Brian Sullivan

haha - Nicholas Kreidberg

I have a dozen of those scattered around my desk at any given time. I make it, lose it, make another, find the first one, lose them both, make another ...... - Martha

I prefer a precision screwdriver. - April Russo (app103)

What is going on? Why I don't know what you are talking about. Could anybody please explain the irony :( - Er-fun

Handiest everything tool! What would we do without it? - John Tastad

Saves the day, anyday. - Can Mert Bozkurt

Another good tool is a yarn needle. (That's right...your grandma has some mad geek tools in her sewing box) They are huge, have rounded tips (no sharp point), and the eyes are big enough to allow you to put a piece of strong string through them and tie them to something on your desk so they don't "get away". They come in both metal and plastic varieties. http://www.youtube.com/watch... - April Russo (app103)

I finally got some nicer pictures of these so they are up in my etsy shop, if you are interested. http://yolandamade.etsy.com /shameless self promotion. - Yolanda

Hey, Yoli are those earrings hooks hypoallergenic? My MIL is allergic to nickel. She would love those Christmas tree ones. - Trish Haley

The silver hooks are actually sterling silver. I checked where I bought the hooks and their website says that their sterling silver may contain a trace amount of nickel. I do have a hook that is made of fine silver which means it is 99% silver if she would be more comfortable with that. - Yolanda from IM

Super cute! - Fossil Huntress

The talking pothole voice is on repeat in my head. OH SHOOT! I GOT NO PHONE. CAUSE IMMA POTHOLE. OK BYE!

New HP Netbook for sale. Bought it only a week ago for $400. Uses windows XP, Microsoft Office, 160 GB Hard Drive. Needing to sell ASAP. I have lost the receipt (well I didn't lose it, a man lost it, but that's another story) so Best Buy won't let me return it. Holidays are here and money is tight (that same man lost the checking account register and overdrew the account). Make an offer. Will consider almost anything. Comes with the power cord, a case, and all the paperwork that was with it when I originally purchased it. Pictures on request. Only serious inquiries please. Might be selling the man as well very soon so check back for a posting. Happy Holidays and thanks for looking. - Yolanda from Bookmarklet

LOL I totally could have written that. - Anika

this is too cute. and it demonstrates my claim that kittens are awesome. but only while they are kittens. cats are not awesome by any measure. they are indifferent and personally I think they suck. but kittens are terrific. Just my thoughts on the subject. - Morgan Haley

Poor Morgan... so sad that you haven't had any awesome cats. My cats are AWESOME. - Yolanda

Today was the most awesome mail day EVAR. A hat from Mary Carmen, timers from Kaia, and the holiday card from Audrey (okay okay... her Mom and Dad). :D HAPPY YOLI!!!

I will be hiding once the 10,000 people my MIL invited get here. - Michelle Martinez

<3 - Yolanda

I used to hide in my bedroom whenever we had family gatherings for the same reason. - cecily

C, I wasn't allowed to do that. Someone would come find me and bring me out. Which I think is why I indulge my introvert ways so much as an adult. - Baroness Von SmashAHomie

I think that might've been why I lived like a hoarder when I was at home with my parents. If my room was filthy enough, then nobody would want to come in and bother me. :D - cecily

The last time I tried that here at my in-laws' house, I got fussed at. So I have to sit out here. No pants, though. - ha3rvey (ar3gyle)

I don't like pecan pie all that much. I can take a few bites if it is a la mode. Otherwise.... *plurk*

Plurk? - ha3rvey (ar3gyle)

Is that like *blarg* - ha3rvey (ar3gyle)

Plurk is the sound my cat's make when they hork up a hairball. - Yolanda

Which pie do you like? - Sally: pecan pie master

Sounds just like blarg, which is the sound I make when I hork up a hairball. - ha3rvey (ar3gyle)

Pumpkin is my most favorite. And it is best served cold. NOM - Yolanda

*gag* - Mo Kargas

Mo, I'm starting to think you don't like pie at all - Sally: pecan pie master

I like the ones without bizarro world nuts and vegetables in :) - Mo Kargas

I only like it if chocolate chips are involved, and I'm from GA. - Laura B an elf.

Chocolate cream pie is a close second... followed by apple pie a la mode. - Yolanda

Hell yes Yolanda! - Mo Kargas

i super WANT to like pecan pie, but gelatinous goo surrounding nuts just isn't for me. now. put some pumpkin roll in front of me? i will fight you for it. :) - carlotta fancypants

I'm not really a pecan pie fan either. There are many fillings I'd rather eat. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)

Carlotta... it is that sugary pecan gel that totally puts me off. *shudder* - Yolanda

What's your take on blueberry pie? - Sally: pecan pie master

Yolanda, I feel the same way about that overly sweet gel. - ha3rvey (ar3gyle)

I've never had blueberry pie. The only other fruit pie I remember trying is cherry. That wasn't so great. - Yolanda

I like blueberry pie and blueberry custard pie. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)

There is good pecan pie and bad pecan pie. - Michael W. May

I feel the same way. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

There's bad pecan pie and then there's kitty litter with a pastry crust - Mo Kargas

I lurve it - anna sauce

"Hork" and "Hairball". Those words go so well with a nice thanksgiving dinner, dontcha thingk? (lol) - Rick Cogley

I love pecan pie, but can't get any here in japan. At least I've never seen it anywhere. Maybe Anna Millers has it. - Rick Cogley
