They segment didn't start yet but they said he's going to buy an energy company.  What's up with that?  I thought he had no money to be doing acquisitions?

Put it on if you want to watch.

I think this is significant because of when it was done.  Why didn't the Pirates just announce this a couple of hours before the deadline?  Selig must be furious that the Pirates did this 8 days before the deadline. 

if the Pirates don't get in trouble for this, when will a team ever get in trouble?

I'm having problems with my speaker and I hope you guys can help me out.  The sound on my computer isn't working when playing windows pinball (just to test) or going to youtube to play videos.  If I put a music CD in the C drive, then the computer does play music.  So 1. Sound card is working 2. Speakers are working, what can be the problem?  If I go to the volume window, everything seems fine except in the far right column.  The right column is the PC speaker and that's grayed out so I can't move the balance back-and-forth.  I think that seems to be the problem but I can't fix it.  Anyone know what I should do?

What do you think will be the cheapest authentic Hamilton jersey?

What are the differences from the authentic and replica jerseys?

I have an old Ryan authentic jersey that I always use but I want to buy the red Hamilton jersey.  I don't want to pay 180 bucks for it though.

Do you think there will be authentic jerseys for around 100 bucks on the internet somewhere?

Anyone getting nervous with this virus coming out tomorrow?

Anyone know anything about it?

I have the Avast free software version, will that be enough to protect my computer?

Is there any good free antivirus protection software out there?  If not, what is the best one to get that costs money?

I just reinstalled Windows XP because of a virus and I don't have any virus protection now.  I rather not spend money on one but if that's not an option, what should I get?

Holy crap, I went to look at our new top 10 list on BA.  I just saw that Ruben Mateo is playing baseball 5 min. from my house.  I can't believe he's playing for the Newark Bears (NJ) in the Indy league.  I still remember the day when i didn't want us to trade him in a package to get Roger Clemens.  I thought he was going to be the next amazing star.  Boy was I wrong.

Any of you guys ever get it?  I got it today on my computer and I can't get rid of it.  I try to do the self removal steps but it doesn't help.  It gives you steps to get rid of

HKEY files

DLL files

but none of the files they tell me to remove is located in the registry. 

What should I do?  I don't have the money to pay for a new virus scanner to remove it.

Any advice would be grateful.
