Now that the elderly can report 15 minutes in a month as opposed to a full hour previously it makes it look like the numbers are not dropping. But it's still a revolvoing door here.
Too bad it doesn't revolve a little faster.

i found those statistics for wt canada 2003:.
last year's peak was 110,814. this year's peak is 110,192. .

jw's are told that they have a faith unlike any other.
what is the faith that the typical witness has??
?
Misguided.
in the quentin tarantino movie reservoir dogs, steve buscemi's character argues against tipping.
and a very good discussion ensued on this topic.
it is the only thing i liked about that movie, but anyway this came up yesterday.
I've seen many fast food restaurants put out a dish or cup beside the cash register with "Tips" marked on it. None of the chains like McDonalds though. It's common in coffee shops too.

minimus' thread (http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/60379/1.ashx) got me thinking... if you were to suddenly kill over dead at home, how long would it be before somone came looking for you?.
me... i probably would not be found until after the first of the month... when my rent was due.
Right now I would be found within a day. Once I get my separation finalized - who knows? If you don't see me post for a week you can assume I'm history.
Or maybe I'll make an announcement beforehand.

this is the latest "test the nation" intelligence test.
it requires no general knowledge, so anyone who can speak english can give it a go: http://www.bbc.co.uk/testthenation/iq/.
there is a section that asks what city you live near to, if you're american it's bristol and you're in the south west!!.
DAMMIT! I usually score better than this. I got 111.
Must be all the beer...

You're right Simon, VMWare great for running multiple O/S's at the same time. Make sure you have lots of RAM though.

I have to get my butt in gear too. I first did my MCSE in NT 3.51 and never bothered certifying in NT4. I started the win2k track, but never did the exams. I may do win2003, but I think the exams are just in beta.
I did my XP Pro, CCNA, Server+, TICSA , and Cisco firewall certs last year, but so far I did NOTHING this year. Feeling kind of brain dead right now, since I just left the JW's right after a whole pile of courses and exams. I'll probably start again in the new year.
I haven't found any braindumps that I found useful, but I use some of the practice exams from Transcender, Measureup, and Selftest software.
A home network is a great help too. It costs a bit to set up at first, but in the long term I find it more cost effective than taking courses that cost a couple of thousand $$ for 5 days.

I've always used materials from Microsoft Press. A bit pricey, but it's just what I'm used to from my old NT 3.51 course.
I tried some of the exam cram books, but I found some errors.
Which track are you taking? Win2k or Win2003?

edited to add that this is not original material, but a post i found on a toronto job search newsgroup.
some of the original work was removed because of potentially offensive content.
but i can definitely relate to some of the sentiments here.. walter.
Ohhhhhh CRAP!!!
Thanks Six, for your post! You got me to look at the post again. I forgot to add my comment that this isn't original material, but something I found in a Toronto job search newsgroup. I removed some of the original material before posting though, as it could have been offensive to some.
Sorry for the confusion.
