Marie Larf Rule 5

  1. Marie Harf makes me larf, but not barf.

    Ace outdid himself w/ the Shelley Dubinsky reference. They were real, and spectacular!

  2. Who says guys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses?

    PS Enough already with the autoplay.

    1. I hate the auto play. It is most definitely not intentional. If I could learn Ari's mojo he describes below, I would use it all the time. I love that clip from SNL but I am removing it because of autoplay.

    2. No "mojo" involved I suspect. I just noticed that I have NOT let Adobe Reader or Flash Player update my PC....they've both got "notices" in my tray. I've set all "update" features on this Windows 7 Pro PC to "notify, no download, no install," unless I ask for it after notification. Video embeds now just give a a nice gray blank screen with a little annotation asking if I wish to run Adobe Flash Player....and the requisiton "start" arrowhead next to it. Autoplay is non-existent here, for now anyway.

      Had to do that because some Win 7 updates will wreck some older Dbase database formats (likely Dbase III), ....Judi had to go in and delete those Win 7 updates from July to get it to work again.) Since she and I still need to be able to operate them .... one I will likely be upgrading the MS Access 2003 version or so (one of Judi's offices), but must have access to them to do that. occasionally. At the moment I have the tables (DBF files) easily processed through the ODBC funciton, however, being lazy, I am now trying to get the scripts for the calculations, forms, and reports to translate smoothly so I don't have to re-write them all.

      If you need more information on which specific Win updates had to go, I'll ask Judi when she gets home.

  3. First, using Opera I have managed to defeat any and all Auto-Play crap...and have done the same with IE. Adobe Flash Player does not open by default anymore. Problem is, I don't remember what I did to make it so. I am the blind squirrel I guess...finds a nut occasionally. Now all video embeds appear as blank screens with a "forward" triangle...none turns on automatically. I can decide to open them based upon the thread subject matter and labels....even advertisements are the same. When and if I figure out just what my clumsy fingers did, I will let all y'll know.

    Next, Marie Larf is a laugh and that's it. He qualification for Rule 5 is marginal at best, better suited for the myopic folks. As shown here, she is another finger pointing nitwit (apologies to my cat of the same name)who presumes you must pay attention to her rambling disinformation. She's not ugly, but I suspect she is stupid....don't care what fancy school she graduated from....doubt she could survive 2 days in any wilderness, or in a ghetto.

    1. Marie is just a big goofy corn fed girl who really has no idea what she is talking about. Why they bring her out like a 4H heifer to speak for the administration/state department is strange, although then again it strangely fits.

    2. I once did a Helen Thomas Rule 5, which made Wombat incredulous I would even suggest such a blasphemy.
