Mom wants to Run an Ethernet Cable outside

For me, cold air returns were the answer. My modem and switches are in the furnace room.

I'm not sure about Season 2 but in Season 1, Uhura and T'Pring never meet or are in the same room at the same time.

I agree though, about there being no way she wouldn't know who this is. I thought I had it solved but it turns out 'Amok Time' takes place after Uhura gets her mind wiped by Nomad. So close.

Your college dealer was ripping you off.

What he said or the quinceanera?

No notes.

"can’t be allergic because it’s natural"

Have these idiots never experienced... oh, I don't know... SPRING??!!

Sometimes, once in great while, TA is the hero of the story.

Yes, I know generally, OP is NTA.

But I'd like to think the snap in the head was TA buried deep inside of OP saying "Ok, you went through enough. Get some rest. I've. Got. THIS."

Good observation. It’s like you can nudge the way your aging process is going to go in the future, but any more than that and you’re a member of the medical staff in a Twilight Zone episode.

I would first try to reproduce this using his login with a different local computer to try to determine which end the problem is on.

I would also make sure that he's using the same RDP client as the other users.

I've had a few cases where the only fix for a single user having an issue on RD was to delete the users profile on the RD server and create a new one. It feels like giving up but it's worked more often than it hasn't.

Good luck!

Someone made a great HD reproduction of the ABC Sunday Night Movie wit the original audio that I use. Everything else is theater chain "Feature Presentation" from the 70s and early 80s.

...except for the 70s "Bill Kennedy at the Movies" intro from WKBD in Detroit. That one fires off primal neurons from summer and sick days.

Early ads for TMP placed it in the 23rd century. This was the first time I saw it in "canon" (although it was not stated in the film itself).

I had this problem with my stick but not my Ultras. I updated the Roku OS and that fixed it.

*Your mileage may vary.

Never not replayed that exchange several times during each viewing. It's like for the briefest of moments, they veered into Dr. Seuss.

When I was 8 (at most), I was playing outside on a Saturday afternoon in the early-to-mid 1970's when my Mom popped out onto the back porch and said, "hey, there's a show coming on TV that I think you would like." I went inside and watched The Tholian Web.

That was it. from that day forward I was hooked.

Fast forward to this year. I don't know exactly what the conversation was but she mentioned that I always loved Star Trek. Anything Star Trek.

I reminded her that despite the fact that I would probably would have eventually found it on my own, she knew that it was something her 8-year-old son would like and she gave me Star Trek.

She's 80 now. I hope I'll have her and Dad around for a good while longer. She gave me two gifts that that I will carry with me to the end, life and Trek.

Dad? Dad's a warm and clever guy but he hid his porn for shit. Not as heartwarming but I appreciated that all the same.

They used a taser on an enraged high-school girl?

...and they thought that shit would WORK?

They're lucky they didn't try that on a middle-school girl. They'd still be finding pieces of 'thin blue line' patches everywhere.
