    I assumed, because of how simple that solution is, that your laptop didn't in fact possess a video-out.

    That's why IT guys first ask "is your computer on?"

    Just how bad was it? :wacko;
    Wasn't bad at all, i fancy myself to have a pretty good English Accent.

    No fucking clue what dialect it will come out as but it's English.

    I just thought it was funny that it decided to crash as soon as i hit play to listen to it.

    Duke on the other hand, my duke is shitty.

    Then again, John St. John, the voice of Duke Nukem (and Big the Cat.) is amazing.

    Damn, I quit smoking for 12 days last month before falling off of the wagon and smoking a cig during an exceptionally stressful day. Back on the wagon again, but today's only the 3rd day and I have to work a Valentines Day dinner tonight at my work. It's going to be insanely busy, and I need to be conscious about not smoking. It's going to be hard, the third day always seems to be the worst for me. Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it.

    If there's a will, there's a way.

    Thanks guys, oh it will be a barrel of laughs tonight I'm sure.

    Maybe we'll get some free drinks at the end of the night, if I'm lucky.

    Yes it is, that's why I'm really trying to stop. I want/need to get healthier and get back into some semblance of decent shape.

    Just don't subconsciously pop a cigarette into your mouth, and be all like "Ah, fuck."

    Would Nicotine patches be helpful?

    If someone hands me one that's lit I might subconciously do that, it's happened before. Not a good thing at all.

    I have never tried those. First of all, they are very expensive. Secondly, everyone I talk to who has successfully quit have done it cold-turkey. Sure it will be hard, but it's really just a matter of willpower now. If your mindset is to quit, you will quit...well that's the theory anyway.

    It's a bit easier this second time around though. I don't seem to think about one as often. I have cut down a hell of a lot lately though, only about ~10 cigs in the last month. Not bad compared to 5-10 a day, maybe the nicotine doesn't have as much of a sway on me now.

    OIC.

    I guess talking about them and being constantly reminded wouldn't be the best way to quit either, Good luck quitting.

    I gotta go.

    I love when my Laptop decides to just... eat disks or something.

    I put the disk in, and it just spins. Never spins down, i can't eject the tray, and i can't do anything with the disk.
