Your sig says it all.
I bought win 10 pro from another grey market supplier and it works fine but then I have not had a problem with it.

Bingo!
I am off work until Thursday, so to preempt your question: it doesn't matter to me if you do Monday or wait until Tuesday

"Bingo"? No - that's only five letters, far too short ...

If I told you that "bingo" was just an abbreviation of "bingomoply", which is in fact 10 letters, would you promise to just take my words for it and not to Google it to check?

"Tail end" of a queue is called the "tail". And it's at the back.

the more i think about this one the better it gets.
my first inclination was simply roadkill.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Hi All,
The office now smells of week old vegetable soup! A very subtle smell, didn't notice it at first. My desk is below one the outlets, has something died up there?

Or there is a bowl of week old vegetable soup in the duct.

Yes, but be fair - you do work for a sauna company.

I often think that I do! It has to be 80 outside before someone even contemplates turning the heating down. 
It's not just here, of course, it's shops, it's public transport, it's pubs, it's people's houses - everywhere is so over-heated these days.
My mother always pinpoints the invention of the disposable nappy as the beginning of the end of western civilisation but I lay the blame firmly at the door of central heating.

It's certainly responsible for some things: damage to antiques for example. And I'd put the blame at least partly on CH for in the increase in asthma and suchlike problems. Since houses are "better sealed" you don't get early-and-continual exposure to pollens and so on, which has to be partly responsible.
On the other hand, you get less fires and carbon monoxide deaths ... and a toasty house in winter.
We don't have CH, never have. No mains gas here, and nowhere to safely put a oil tank or gas bottles, so we are all electric, since we stopped using the fireplace.

I am from New England. They keep the office at 68 all summer so the cold of winter will not bother us. In the winter heat is set at 64. I think it is to also keep us awake.
I college they enforced a dress code by keeping the class rooms at 66. You had to wear long pants and long sleeve shirts.
AC can be abusive.
