Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 120: How do you want to die?

I could have walked home faster than I drove today. A pedestrian apparently got hit a half block from where I live and I had to drive all over the neighborhood before I could approach from the other direction. Oh well, at least it wasn't me who got hit.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 120: How do you want to die?

I'm fighting with this godaweful new version of excel again. Does anyone know how I change the default settings for charts? So I don't have to go in and change every little thing like font on every label and color schemes for the chart every time I make a new chart? I have about 25 to make and it will take 3 times as long if I have to change everything on every chart. :mad:

Good lord, I wish I had access to that. I'd be buying the max each pay period and instantly selling all but one share to dodge the liquidation / 6 month wait time limitation.

The way the stock has been performing the last year, I've been much better off leaving my money in there. It's quadrupled since April 2009.

Personally, I love excel 2007 (and I suppose 2010 I'll like even more).

You can set the default by changing one chart and opening up the properties window and hitting "set as default"

I hate it. I would go back to the old version of MS Office in a heartbeat.

Where is the properties window? I've looked for that before, but I haven't been able to find it. :confused:

Right click the part of the chart you want to change and click properties or hit CTRL+1 (like autocad :) )

Ugh either allergies are killing me today or I am getting sick.

I have no medicine, so I have been drinking Jameson in hopes that will resolve the issue (one way or the other).

Mine have been going nuts today as well.

Good Evening, Lodge!

Sitting here drinking Half & Half. Mr. wore Black is drinking Jack on the rocks. I was so frustrated at work today, I almost went Ron Hextall on my computer tower. It did not want to cooperate at all. Programs were crashing and it was running at a snail's pace. On the bonus side, I don't have to go to work on Monday early in the morning. We are really slow, so they put me on call for Monday. That means I can drink more on Sunday!

I must have a different version than you do, because when I tried right clicking on something there was never an option for properties.

I eventually figured out how to make some kind of a template of a graph but even then I couldn't get it to save all of the changes I made. It wouldn't be a problem if the original defaults didn't make a graph look like it was meant for a second grade class. There is no way I'd present one of those as part of a professional presentation.

Now I'm home and I want to drink, but I can't because I might end up having to drive somewhere later tonight. ****ty.

Hi Lodge


Quick drive by to relate my recent experience at the drive through

If you're hearing impaired and unable to speak, is the drive through at McDonald's your best choice? I was the only one there at the time. A car went straight through the other drive through lane and stopped at the first window. I assumed they had something wrong with their order. Nope. They didn't even use a note. They just signed and gestured their way through the whole process. The poor kid at the first window was absolutely a saint, and got their order in and accepted their payment, which was mostly in change, these people were very old, and got them to the second window. When I got to the first window I paid and the kid was very apologetic toward my wait, yet sympathetic to the elderly patrons ahead of me. "Good on him" I thought, not being in a hurry. Unfortunately I was the only one in that long growing line that didn't have a time crunch. The kid at the second window was easily rattled, and he was a puddle. "Something" was amiss on their order and he didn't have a clue what to do. Again, I had a front (back?) row seat to this debacle and was curious how this was going to play out. I started doing the math and calculated I had been in the drive through line about 16 minutes so far. Horns were honking like crazy and people were obviously getting very impatient. FINALLY the elderly couple gets their order and pulls away. I pull up to the window and see no less than ten bags and twice as many beverages piled up. The kid in this window asks me if I remember what I ordered. I said "doesn't matter, it better be free now". His face blanched :D . I said "kidding" and told him what I paid for. He thanked me and gave me a free chocolate shake :)

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 120: How do you want to die?

Our system crashed for 3 hours today. If not for that, we woulda been out an hour early. Didn't get out until a hour later than the normal schedule. :mad:
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 120: How do you want to die?

Evening, Lodge. Busy day at oldey-timey land today, but not too bad. Apparently the lady friend has had the week from hell though (culminating with a jerkoff policeman giving her, and apparently everyone else on the road, tickets.)
