What do you do when you have blown a fuse or whatever it is that suddenly causes half the stuff in your house to stop working? So far I have found a box of flippy switches but I'm scared to do anything to it. Help me!

[BongMan]

look for the one that is that has tripped it will be either in the middle or facing the oppisite way from the other fuses flip it back and you should be good to go. Do not worry you wont get a shock.

[robyn]

omg it worked, I love you jeff! I owe you a drink next time I see you!

[BongMan]

I shall hold ya to that.


My sister has a shoddy hairdryer and she is brain dead so she trips the breaker atleast twice a week.

[decypher]

lol Robyn. Don't they label those switches?

[BongMan]

if it is anything like my house they are old and faded as hell

[robyn]

Leave me alone kam! I assumed it would be a complicated procedure involving screwing in little glass fuses like we had to do on bowen (or maybe I dreamed that).

Yay jeff!!!

[Grapes]

Dammit, Jeff stole my advice. Robyn could have been indebted to ME

[BongMan]

K dave riddle me this: How do I turn off the pop-up blocker so I can use web msn???

[BongMan]

it depends what are you have running to block said popups.. Usually a right click on the program icon in your active programs box will give ya the option to turn off popup blocker. I'm not Dave I know but a windex martini to go with that beer is sounding tempting :)

[decypher]

Come on Robyn! Get with it!

[robyn]

I'm too stupid to turn the pop-up blocker off! Apparently I should've been born in the year 1896!

[BongMan]

well what browser are you using??


Also check your open programs tool bar bottom right of your screen and look for some sort of pop up blocker program even virus checkers have em now be vigilant you will find it.

[Grapes]

^ Man, I will windex martini YOU if you don't shut up and stop being so helpful.

[robyn]

Can't do it! Gonna go read an old fashioned book instead!

[BongMan]

roger dodger Ima shut my big helpful yap :)



Also, I would be more then willing to take ya up on that martini offer Dave.

[decypher]

Robyn's a hippy and reads by oil latern.

[robyn]

Once on bowen there was a giant storm and I was forced to live by the light of an oil lamp for two weeks. Did I mention we had to use glass fuses?

[miss.myra]

install msn and then uninstall it when you're all done tycoonin

[BongMan]

Bowen is nice but Im much more a fan up the islands further north Denman and Hornby are super nice when the wind is light Ruxton has a nice beach then there are the Desolation Sound islands.. Sharkspit mmm 2 miles of nothing but sand and warm water.

[robyn]
