For those who haven’t met me in person, I drive a blue Jeep Cherokee. It’s old, it’s rusted, it’s dented, it’s been rolled once and declared totaled, and I don’t do preventative maintenance. I have about a five mile drive into work. Last Friday, about 3.5 miles into the trip… Continue reading →

This is the first post coming to you through the WordPress installation on norconk.com. I’ve spent far too much time in the indecision of how to design my site. About two years ago, I had it all set up how I liked it, but then wanted to convert it to… Continue reading →

Frustration with IE and Vista

By norconkm | 01/11/2008 - 9:46 pm |05/04/2008 rants, reviews

I cannot figure out how to make IE in Vista download Firefox. If I select run, nothing happens. If I select save, either nothing happens or it is saved somewhere unknown to me. When I go to tweak internet options, nothing comes up. When I search for any file that… Continue reading →

Ron Paul
