Im a few min E of GR in Lowell area (just n of town in Vergennes twnshp). Close enough to Lowell High School I know when marching band is practicing/playing and when football team gets a touchdown!

I like the ideas thrown around so far. There are events by me but most just don't work with my schedule or are too formal.
I was wondering if any would be interested in setting up a chat just for Christian Singles? I chat all the time on IRC (Internet Relay Chat, chat channels galore).
I also used to host a Christian singles chat on the former FireTalk till it was purchased by PalTalk.
If any interest let me know here or email me and I'll post instructions and where it will be!
The programs and all are free and just need small program or can use any chat program that can connect to irc servers.

Only spots that even come close to being a arcade now are two Craig's Cruisers. Used to have a Fun Factory over by Woodland Mall next to the former theater (both now long gone) and a Kahunaville over in Rivertown Mall in Grandville (closed).
USed to go to both them a lot. Would be nice if someone were top open a arcade and have top of the line machines, some older ones (esspecialy older pinball which I love to play) and even set up for WI/PS2/PS3/XBOX also. I do know from The History Channel there is a coin-op museum near Detroit but cant think of exactly where right off hand.

for irc, a good program is called mirc.
If you'd like a link to there email me and ill link you there.
Also instructions on where the channel is on there ( i hang out there nightly and play trivia in another)

Other spot Im thinking is scn chat.
Would need more interest to set up a room and a couple hosts ( I work odd hours being part time at sears) and only have dial up at the time

Don't give up, Shes out there somewhere!
It's cool keeping mind open since never know when or where paths will cross. I've had a few gf's myself and each one has what I'm looking for and some that turns me off though I dont let that bother me. Though some things will not turn other cheek for (drugs, booze abuse to name a couple)

Thinking of setting up a chat over in another spot i have a membership. Rooms are free there.
Anyone who would like info let me know and ill post info!
I also chat on IRC (Internet Relay Chat) and play trivia on there on a regular basis (working my way back to top again.....)
if any would like to know let me know!

Very True! Especially since got the seasonal changes with fall and winter. I could never live somewhere else and not miss the beauty throughout the seasons. Plus also my town of Lowell and the fundraiser for breast and any cancer awareness thew just happened I couldn't be more proud of the schools I graduated from and the town.

Way cooool you like it here!
Since this state has its natural beauty and some very nice and friendly folk. Just have to know where to look.
Most that hate it would in my opinion hate it everywhere else.
True we have the worst unemployment but that's due to in part corporate greeed, corrupted government (listening to the lobbyists and their big bucks) and people who take advantage of the system and services. Clean that up and well become one of the best in the nation. Just start out small and things will change.

thanks Charles!
The one i sent to you came before so thats what got curiosity up

Wish spammers would learn spam dont pay off (The real stuff is gross!)

Its got XP and yes the plugs are directly beneath the keyboard and mouse plugs. I have no idea if there is a soundcard in it, and my boss is indisposed.

He's a rich guy that fell into a bottle of vodka, now he's in rehab. Don't know if I'll ever see him again


Your sound is built onto the motherboard it could be deactivated in the BIOS if this was a business machine. There are several ways to get into the bios depending on the type of computer. It could be F1, or F2, or the DELETE key during bootup depending on the computer. Go in there and look under the periphials catagory and see if you have an item called onboard sound, or AC '97 sound or something like that. If it's disabled, go ahead and change that to enabled and that should get windows to recognize your sound option at the next bootup.....


A computer that old could also have used the crystal audio codec. I had crystal audio on a Gateway system and it finnaly died. Put in a new soundcard and sound was even better! Thats considering one time was out, reinstalled driver and a month later after 3 hard crashes in a row sound came back!
I also had crystal audio on a Monorail Computer (tool and die shop I used to work for made tooling for them so got one heck of a deal!), only way to restore sound was tottaly format and restore using restoration disk.

Still will never go with vista here, Took way to long to even get a beta working let along working public beta version. WAY to many verions, Most parts vendors didn't even get copies of the code to make drivers. When 98 came out they were allready working on vista and it took 5 yrs after xp before a beta was even close and too even get it to that point had too strip everything way back or remove alltogether. Another ME failure if you ask me.

Thanks for the idea, ill check them out.
I found one on new egg once but ie crashed out and cant never refound it. i also have some a couple older tower cases but will need to do some cutting to mount new sheild, otherwise ps and rest will drop right in.
Any ideas for a reset switch? Going to mount one up so dont have to tottaly power down in case of crash or freeze up.

I found XP for sale at Office Max right across from mall I work at. Will not go for Vista (looks like going to go the way of ME which more or less was 95 rebadged with a little 98 mixed in...

Don't activate your profile over that! IF your friend left due to that he/she wasn't your true friend!!

Still can't beat The Corner Bar in downtown Rockford for hot dogs, they rock!

im overhauling a older hp desktop and having no luck finding a ps to fit the case. hight and length are stock but half as wide. want to turn it into a pvr

I cant agree with you even more! Thats the one thing I always do with friends, co-workers and that. It seems everyone is looking for the bigger better deal or Mr./Mrs. Perfect and that person is not out there. In another posting a couple gals from here I was talking with (didn't quite get to the first date) have said stuff from their past has scared others off. To me its just a part of life and is history. I also have same problem as have some problems but I don't let them take me down
and wish others would do the same. Look past the outside and see whats inside deep down (same thing my heart does and can tell if a person is true or not.)

i have one that didnt even show up at just say hi.....other persons account is still active too....

Got notice of email but never in my inbox and have hit reload and nothing. asked the other account if could resend and hopefully comes thru.....or is there a way it cold get released if caught by spam filters? (had that problem once with another isp and they did release the email (was from another subscriber to them)

active account on both ends here.....
