Anyone know of a "role playing game", and I use that lightly, that gives you the feeling of traditional D&D... but instead of D&D-like game play is more of a murder or other type of mystery? Can be fantasy, or not, but where you can buy like mystery stories and run a "campaign" where the players have to solve whatever mystery there is?
Maybe Gabriel Knight - a Sierra point and click. Old stuff. Maybe on GOG.

I know that there's more than one DiGiori in the world, but I suspect that this is the same person that I think he is. We went to college and worked together in the late 70's, early 80's. He has perfect pitch.... tunes pianos by hand or ear as is the case and has been verified by machine after the fact.

I call it the Hot Dog Slicer 1000. It slices, it dices, it cuts hotdogs at least 3 different ways. If you are interested in our upgraded Slicer 3000, it includes not one, not two, but three blades for the price of two!
Call now! Operators are standing by.

I fixed one of those 15 or 20 years ago. They ran W98 and the boy's had a pedal and wheel as well. The boy I fixed it for was a mongoloid child of a friend of mine. He was very happy.

Just found out that the world's busiest airport is now DFW.
Cant say I am not surprised, it is massive, so the volume they can handle....
O'hare was considered the busiest for a long time.

Yep. Spinners only. I've been successful 3 out of 12 times
Thought I was the only one that ever used that trick.
I've a had similar success rate. Just make sure when you power it up, you get what you need, because it may not happen a 2nd time!
I got away with it once. I stood it on it's side and blew a window fan on it once it started to heat up.
PA just moved to mandatory masks indoors, again, yesterday.

Fighting Windows Xp ( i know , I know. Nothing I can do ... ) on a read only issue. No idea why the folder is stuck in Read only- I also know that is generally ignored by XP on Folders, But This Terminal (being an all in one) wont start up correctly.
Legacy equipment gives me a headache.
Have you ever tried the attrib command from the cmd prompt? Open a cmd windows in administrator mode and type in help attrib. It may help you past issues that you can't correct from the file explorer. Something like attrib <file name> -r to remove the read only attribute. Don't use my example. I don't remember the syntax off the top of my head. Google it for more.
