Unplug his PC from the network, hide his computer mouse and put a bottle of scotch, a package of fried bacon and cigar on the keyboard. He will quickly forget why he was trying to login and drift into doing what alpha boars do. Once he is a little into the scotch, have Lexi ask him how the Nuclear Seahorse idea was conceived. That's at least an hour discussion. When he pulls out a Seahorse to explain the finer points of inspiration, Lexi will naturally, reflexively puke her lungs out all over his desk, rendering the computer completely useless.

Meanwhile, you can be emailing away those details we are all waiting for! No fuss at all :) Probably a pretty normal day at the Busse office, actually, so he'd never suspect any foul play.

(Or put one of those screen saver pics on his machine with you and Lexi smiling...those eyes never fail to mesmerize)

I can not only help make sure you get to post the price first but I can also make you look like a hero too! Here's how you can temporarilly and harmlessly disable his internet access so that he won't have the ability to post immediately until something super simple is corrected!!! Easy sauce!! You can also be the hero that "helps" him fix the problem AFTER you've posted of course!!!

Just prior to your meeting here's what you need to do:

1) If he has a cable going to the back of his computer that looks like the image below, simply slightly pull it so that it is either 3/4 of the way out - OR -just go ahead an pull it all the way out! Literally takes seconds to reconnect. No harm done!!!

2) If you guys have wireless, got to the bottom right of his computer screen, click on the wireless network icon (looks like cell phone reception bars), click on the network name and click disconnect. This can easilly be re-connected by clicking connect again and providing the password (usually the telephone number of the location). If this is too scary, talk to your network person to make sure it's ok! Also literally takes seconds to reconnect. No harm done!!!

3) If he has a USB or other type connection to the internet, simply do the same thing to it you would have done to the cable. A simple push back into the USB port and he's back in business!

4) If none of these will work because he's good capable with his computer, I can tell you a way (via PM :cool:) to easilly modify a file on his computer so that whenever he tries to go to "www.bladeforums.com" he'll be redirected to "http://www.porkbeinspired.com" :devilish: where he can get all see all the latest Pork recipies!!!


5) If all else fails, you can spring for a bottle of this... Yep! Vodka soaked bacon!!!

Good stuff. I was late to the recommendations, so had nothing really, besides the Gorilla duct tape over the eyes.

I have to say, though, the bacon flavored vodka with the bacon in it almost made me a little sick to think about.
 
How'd I miss this? Funny stuff, guys, and 'gratz to ya both!!! :thumbup:
 
W00T! Thanks Pokey!

And by the way Jaxx... Love your signature!

Like this one too, "I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid." Jayne Cobb
