Really, Todd? I have found Traic's humor delightful, his inner child prevalent, for months. He's a dancing dichotomy, rich in personhood.
Do AD's really do that, or does growth?
Since he's in his room, safely out of sight...(and DEFINITELY not invited to MY birthday party)...
How are you, Todd?
And I'm all for holding Kiwi accountable...would that be like holding her upside down, given our geographic locations? Do I hold her feet the air and her head to the fire or something?

Sorry, I think it is just the Oreos talking. I was working out this AM in the garage watching the very first program I ever recorded on my Arcos AV 700 PVD and I heard a box of Oreos calling to me.
My AV 700 PVD is the third greatest joy in my life at the moment - right after DD's 1 and 2 who are in a tie for first. How did I ever live without one before?

He's definitely in his inner child, Todd...he's talking about his toys...
<----has no concept of what an Acros AV 700 PVD is at all.
<----envies the oreo's though!

I am not paying attention to any of you. I am just coming out to go to the bafroom. Pretend I'm not even here.
BTW, this is rather urgent. Does anyone besides these bullies have any recommendations on DVD ripping software? I got my AV 700 thinking it would be easy to put my DVD's on it. Apparently that is the only thing it WON'T do. I need something to rip DVD to AVI. I bought and downloaded ImTOO but it crashes every time I try to read the DVD. I want something that comes complete with the CODEC conversions. Any recommendations would be most appreciated.

I don't see any child trying to get attention...I see a geek in technoheaven complaining and scheming...
Wait...is that like the same darn thing?

Todd is fine BTW. Thank you.

You remember what a handful he was when he was little don't you? Too smart for his own britches my Mom would say. And as you know Mom, he had no sense of humor at all until he met me. Being humble of course. But anyway, he is in good hands here. Take care Mom. ToddAC

Well I just downloaded Magic DVD Ripper, Super DVD Ripper trial versions and bought DVD Cloner III. I'll let you know what I find out. Those of you still invited to play in my sandbox anyway...

Actually my mommy does read this thread so there is no end to the amount of explaining I am about to have to do when her emails start flying. I am going to change my screen name so maybe she won;t find it. I am going to change it to "anyone_but_traicionado". That will fool her.
On a more serious note, I did forget my AD this AM and, even more important, I forgot my Zovirax. I may need to go home. That's two days in a row for the Zovirax. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Okay, that's it! I am going to the doctor tomorrow and getting a script for whatever you are taking. I am tired of being here dealing with reality while you are ripping DVD's in half, playing with Snap-on tools and using childish teases on a public domain message board. I want to join you!
Anyway traicionado, on the Oreos. This is timely. I entered a somewhat long post to the other site about the "cookie diet". Members there were asking for diet ideas and I remembered reading about this diet. I don't need it anyway because I am still on the infidelity diet of approximately 400 calories daily. That's a different story however.
Here is how the cookie diet works: you break each cookie into at least five parts. The process of breakage releases the calories. Not all of them naturally but approximately 98%. The tag line of this diet is "Breakage causes Leakage".
Predicitably, some members did not believe it; they were willing to look a gift horse in the mouth. The cookie diet rests on sound scientific principles.
The theory behind breakage of the cookies is from an unlikely source. It is due to “symmetry”. The original interpretation comes from Euclid and his “Elements”. From that grew a theory of “proportion relation” is means to harmonize elements info a “unitary whole”. A more modern and more scientific definition of symmetry as “invariance under a specified group of transformations”. This interpretation allowed the concept to be applied more widely, not only to spatial figures but also to abstract objects such as mathematical expressions -- in particular, expressions of physical relevance such as dynamical equations. To keep this from being too long, I need to fast forward. Sometime later, the greatest scientific genius known to man – Sir Isaac Newton – harnessed the world of physics with inpsiring thought and theories. The current modern theories owe their allegiance to Newton although Einstein did refute one of his laws in his work on relativity. The principle of relativity as adopted by Einstein asserts that: The laws by which the states of physical systems undergo changes are independent of whether these changes of states are referred to one or the other of two coordinate systems moving relatively to each other in uniform translational motion. When the foregoing is combined with Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity, it becomes clear that again “symmetry” is changed forever. Here is the operative key: “uniform translational motion”. IOW, the sum of the parts is LESS than the whole. Ergo, fewer calories.
Okay, there are a few snapses because the explantion would simply be prohibitively long. So cookie fans unite and break those cookies into five parts. BTW, for every twelve cookies you eat, you get to drink one eight oz. glass of milk. Believe me, it is the milk that keeps you on the diet.
Now, for my part, I am eating the cookies but not breaking them because I am still in recovery mode from my infideltiy diet.

traic,
I am not typing so well tonight so I will abb. your name.
I thought the Snap-on tools were your greatest love outside DD's...
Oh, BTW I got in trouble "over there" again earlier tonight. It is like falling off a log for me.

Well at the very least, finally somebody posted something I can actually understand. I have still struggled with LA's post from two days ago.
According to Euclidian theory, is it possible to quintisect an angle? I gave up on trisection years ago so never even tried five. What is the optimum number of sections to break the cookies into? With Oreos, you not only have leakage, you have loss of mass and since energy can neither be created nor destroyed and E=mc2, there will be a proportional loss of calories during cookie breakage further enhancing the diet. I have to admit that I have tried licking crumbs off the floor but the flavor is just not the same.
This is really good news Mr. Todd. I always thought if you ate too many cookies, you would end up in a symmetry. That's what mommy always taught me. Unless you prefer creme-ation, of course.

Oh, BTW I got in trouble "over there" again earlier tonight. Come in from the Dark Side, Luke. Follow the Force. Trust your instincts. patient: "Doctor, I broke my leg in three places." Doctor: "Stay outta them places." When will they ever learn? When will the ever learn?

Mr. T,
Someone else asked if they could remove the two cookie portions and eat only the stuffing. The answer is a flat NO!!! What makes leakage possilbe is utilizing the “uniform translational motion” approach. By dissecting parts and removing other parts on a select basis, well, doggone it, you just throw the whole thing into chaos.
