Flow
I just video taped Flow Game Play and I just took my ambien so I will work on editing it in the morning to put it up on YouTube.
Beverly Hills
Well Chip had a design job today and so we drove to Beverly Hills (I was the navigator with my GPS on my laptop). I was sitting in the car with Flower while he was doing his job by looking at the rooms that he is going to be designing. I didn't want to take the focus away from him by being there especially with Flower and I heard a dog barking so I figured staying in the car was the best course of action. I was wrong. This woman whose house we were parked in front of was getting paranoid. Well, who could blame her, it's million dollar mansions in Beverly Hills. She called AAA because I guess 1 of her cars wasn't starting and she came up to the car and I rolled down the window and she was all "how long are you going to be here?" and I said that the person I'm here with is a designer and he's across the street and I was asked to stay in the car. She walked away but I was so uncomfortable being in the car so I just came up to the house and rang the doorbell and they let me in. I sat on the couch while Chip was telling them what he was going to do blah blah blah. Of course the focus was then on me and Flower lol. Anyway, it's good he has a design job. No painting WOOT! Hehe.

Kodak Printer
Ok, today Chip printed a couple of things and the ink levels have not changed at all. This means that the print head WAS the problem and I'm glad we didn't give up and just get a new printer, that I went to Kodak's website and complained and got a new print head sent to me. Thank goodness.

XP Antivirus 2008
I was looking at a website and it said that I needed to download active-x or something to view a video and we had to go to the grocery store real quick. When we came home I noticed Norton Anti-virus was going nuts saying it was blocking a virus and I saw this program running called Antivirus XP 2008 on my screen saying I had all these viruses on my computer and wanted me to click something to get rid of them. I knew something was wrong because I didn't install that program and for some reason it wouldn't allow me to uninstall it through the control panel. I used the laptop to search for it on Yahoos search engine and found this:

Please, take a look at the pictures and memorize them so if this happens to you then you will be able to arm yourself. You don't have to bookmark this site or keep the email if you don't have this issue but just remember to search for it through a search engine so you can be able to get rid of it. I was able to get rid of it but I had to follow the instructions on this website. I hope for your sake you don't get this but in case you do make sure you get rid of it right away. Oh, one of the things you will notice is that your screen will be blue or maroon, your wallpaper will be gone. That is a good indication that you have problems.
Update: After I went through all the steps to remove this thing I went to lay down on my bed to watch TV and I noticed that it went to the Windows Login screen so I got up and clicked my name and went to see the screen saver settings, I right clicked the desktop and clicked Properties and there are 2 tabs missing. Desktop and Screen saver. They are gone! I don't know how to get it back. If I have to reformat my hard drive I'm gonna be pissed.
Another update: I get these email supposedly from CNN. They are usually 1 line emails with a link and I clicked it to see the video for a news story and it said that I needed the active x thing and that is what happened. I was trying to see a news story. I am not going to click any of those emails ever again and just assume it's a link to a virus. My Norton is still finding virus's left over from that and deleting them. So, if you get emails from CNN make damn sure they are really from CNN and not a fake website. Just go directly to CNN.com instead just to be safe.

Doctor Who Season 2
I've finished watching Doctor Who Season 2 which is 1964/65. It's very interesting to watch and even though I shall miss them, Ian and Barbara found their way back home although 2 years into their own future (they left in 1963 and returned in 1965, I guess they couldn't go back to where they left). Poor Susan was left behind on earth in I think the 23rd or 24th century right after they defeated the Daleks. At any rate, he has 2 new companions and I can't wait to see their futher adventures in season 3 which would be 1965/66
