    In the end, I went with an XP system. I could get a great computer without having to fork out tons of money to get the proper amount of RAM. I did my homework and it appeared as if a lot of programs that I have and would run on a new computer didn't work so hot with Vista.

    I'm thinking that since I would be custom ordering the computer, there shouldn't be any hardware issues with Vista. I'd hope that Dell would give you hardware that is all compatible with Vista. Also, I'm not a huge gamer...the only game I play on my computer is Sim City 4, and I'm assuming that will work with Vista as well.

    So I am about to embark on the purchase of a new laptop computer. I am going with a Dell (I think). I can get a system with either Vista or XP (yeah, they still sell a couple systems with XP). I have XP now, and like it and am used to it. The system with Vista I am considering has enough memory to support Vista (2 GB), but I just am not sure about it. So, how easy is it to learn? Will older programs work with it? I am going to put Office 98 on the system, so will that work with Vista? To those who have it, do you like it? If you had a choice between Vista and XP, which would you choose? Thanks much for any help. It will make my buying decision much easier. (added tags --1992)

    Too bad my work computer has this site blocked.

    I'll admit, I got up a bit more at the last game I went to than normal. However, I realize not to get up during a pitch or when the ball is in play, stay at the top of the aisle until a break. I won't be that person who interrupts play to get up and get beer and food. I'll only get up for beverages and food once per game...all the other times are out of necessity.

    Willie Nelson stopped by the golf course I worked at in his bus, hopped off and said, "I want to play some golf." He played a round, then left. Totally random.

    I don't think it's him, but I'll guess it anyways... Pete Seeger?

    UW-Madison with a BA in History 2003 UW-Milwaukee for teacher certification, finished last year Freshman and sophomore year I worked at a golf course during the summer. Junior and senior years (plus the year in between) I worked for the UW Athletic department as a Kohl Center tour guide and a guest services rep at the Kohl Center and Camp Randall Stadium. At UWM, I worked for the AD as well, doing game promotions and stuff.

    I'll be in attendance tonight for my second game of the year and second Bush start of the year as well. Last time, Bush had a shutout into the 9th before giving up a few runs. Great start by him, so I hope for a repeat.

    I love this. I have actually never been over to that forum before. I love how over half of the topics involve the Cubs or were started by Cub fans. Keep building the flames! This is fun!

    If you're coming in on UW business, contact UW transportation services, they may be able to hook you up. Here is the contact info... UW Transportation Services Contact info Also, where are you staying? A lot of hotels in the downtown area have shuttles. I also know weekly bus passes are fairly inexpensive, but that doesn't solve the parking situation, unless you park it at your hotel then bus it in to campus.

    I don't like how Subway no longer has spinach as a veggie. I've been to a few different Subway's since the spinach scare, and all of them have gotten rid of it. I like my spinach on sandwiches...

    Yes, I have the same problem. I take it, feel heavy eyed, but cannot sleep. I get very restless. I do not like that stuff. Give me a shot of whiskey to knock me out any day.

    When you put it on your computer, did you mark the "part of a compilation" button? If you did, it won't show up with the artist's name, but all of the songs are on it. For some reason, if a song is part of a compilation, it will not show up under the artist's name in iTunes (thus, won't be on the iPod either). I had that problem. Just go into the compilations in iTunes and unselect any song that you do not want as a part of the compilation, then put them back on your iPod and everything should work.

    This is exactly why I am reluctant to teach my wife. I am afraid she will get very frustrated when she doesn't do so hot. I'm not a great golfer anymore (used to be ok...6 handicap), and I've always said I'm a better teacher of golf than an actual golfer, so I may still try to teach her.

    Somebody broke the garage door at my apartment today, and the door is stuck closed. I was ready to go to work this afternoon, and couldn't get out of my parking structure. Another guy and I tried to manually open the door, but it is jammed. So I had to take the bus to work today, which wasn't a big deal, but my shift ends after the busses stop running. I now have to take a cab home, and pay $20 for it. Grrrr....

    Baseball has been a part of my family almost as long as it has been an organized sport, so it seems. My great grandfather played in those little town leagues in Iowa back in the 20's and 30's. He also tried out for and made the St. Louis Cardinals one season, but left due to family reasons (I think it was during the depression and he was newly married with children). So my grandmother and her siblings grew up watching their dad play baseball, and it kept going all down the line. My dad quickly became a baseball fan as well, taking trips all over the midwest to see games. My parents' honeymoon was to Kansas City, and they went to a Royals game. So baseball has been a part of my life since I was born. I enjoy it because of the strategy behind literally every single pitch thrown. The concept of the game is so simple, yet every game is so complex.

    I personally enjoy Jack's, although it is tough to find them 4 for $10 anymore...more like 3 for $9. Their Natural Risers are awesome. Tombstone thin crust is also pretty good. Now I want frozen pizza...

    The final 3 cities were Sochi, Salzburg, Austria and some city in South Korea. This marks the first time the winter games will be held in Russia, which is surprising considering how dominate they normally are in the winter games (or at least once were).

    Go to Alcatraz Golden Gate Park is beautiful There is also...I think...a museum or gardens down by the Golden Gate Bridge San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities I've ever seen, so enjoy it.

    Everybody, we are looking at this all wrong. The message is to Brewer fans. All we've had for the 10+ years have been sausage. That's the only race that the Brewers are tied to. Wouldn't we rather have a pennant race? Miller is rubbing it in to Cub fans that the Brewers are now in a pennant race. Besides, the Brewers in the pennant race is good for Miller because more people come to games at Miller Park and thus consume more Miller beer.

    I would like to see fans show up to the stadium, but park themselves outside of the stadium...come, but don't enter the stadium.

    Detroit Lions fans did this last season, but it was pretty unsuccessful. I think it was an anti-Matt Millen thing, probably angry for drafting so many wide receivers.

    I hate it when draftees refuse to play for teams. Baseball is totally different though...but NFL, NBA drafts, come on. You should feel fortunate that you are one of the lucky ones chosen in the draft. Play for the team that you end up on at the end of the night, play your rookie contract, then if you are really that great, test the free agent market. These guys have proven nothing in the pros, yet they think they are the best thing since sliced bread.

    I think this topic comes up multiple times per year, but it is fresh on my mind...We are now a full series removed from our last interleague series of the season, and I want to reflect a bit on interleague play overall. Personally, I like interleague play, but I wish they would change it up a bit. I think the Brewers played 5 interleage series, right? (Minnesota twice, KC, Tex, Det...is that it?) First off, why do they put all of the interleage games in big chunks? Four out of the five series before Houston were against the AL. I wish they would spread interleage out a bit more. I realize they shouldn't have interleague in September during the pennant races, but I don't see any issues with it later in the season, maybe in July into very early August. Also, I understand the Twins are our "natural rival" and all, but I'm not so sure I like seeing them twice a year. I thought the original purpose of interleague was to see teams we normally can't see. I don't think we've seen the White Sox since we moved to the NL (and in my opinion they are more natural than the Twins, yet we get to see the Twins twice a year. I sort of wish you played your "natural rival" once a year, rotating every year where the series is played, they play four other teams from the other league. What other thoughts to people have?
