RE: "pictures, schmictures..."

Having lived a few years on this earth (or more than a few, actually. I'm now entering the Twilight Years, and the Night approaches quickly...), I offer this piece of advice:

The BEST way to HURRY things along is to sit there and GROW into the surroundings. Anything you need will eventually come around to you again, if you wait awhile...

But it would be nice of Microsoft to let us have the bits a little sooner (like, by the end of February? That would be MUCH more reasonable than wanting it RIGHT NOW, THIS INSTANT!!!). THAT attitude is the attitude of (guess who) the ADDICT!!!. We aren't "addicted" to our OSes, now, are we?

Well,. maybe you are.

Wait a few more days, friend...It'll all work out somehow..

BTW, If you want Explorer to respond better, here're a few hints:
1) Increase the speed of your CPU
2) Increase the amount, size, and speed of your RAM
3) Get faster, larger HDs, faster CD/DVD drives, better software
4) Increase the speed of your Network connection
5) Do ANYTHING but complain incessently.
6) STOP trying to live your life in a moment of time, rather than the 3-score-and-10-years we've all been alotted, even the wicked.

I like this last one the most:

"Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.

Ba da, Ba da, Ba da, Ba da...Feelin' Groovy.

Hello lamp-post,
What cha knowin'?
I've come to watch your flowers growin'.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo,
Feelin' groovy.

I've got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,
All is groovy."

(59th St. Bridge Song, by Simon & Garfunkel)

Of course, this is a little harder to do when you have a family and responsibilities, but it is NOT impossible, I assure you.

SLOW DOWN a little, ey?
