#1 Never saw him live, but loved the band (and Van Hagar). Saw Jimmy Page and Led Zep live though :-)

#8 Ima Bud Light guy all the way - cans are easier to lug back to the package store (our Masshole term for liqour stores). Feel free to flame me accordingly.

#11 Before a complete reinstall, Raj, try just deleting the mouse driver. I'm not trying to imply you are a dummy if you already tried that. Also, if it's a Bluetooth mouse make sure that driver is up to date also. Yes, it should all happen automatically, no argument there...

#12 M. Murcek - it's my normal procedure to flatten the machine every year; too much bullshit gets larded up over time, so I leave and nuke it from orbit just to be sure, on an annual basis.

#14 The combo of heavy smoking and alcoholism is never a good one in the long term, especially if it continues after your initial diagnosis with throat cancer as was alleged to happen. But he was the best damn guitarist of his time, and one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time.

I'm getting pretty tired of 2020 being a shit year.

#15 Raj, you may be able to hit TAB until the submit button highlights then hit enter?

And I moved into the area about ten years ago. I wondered what the heck a package store was. Maybe competition for the UPS Store? One day I was walking by one and figured I would take the opportunity to figure it out. Didn't take long to figure out it was probably a result of the attitude that developed the blue laws long ago.

#16 I recall the days when David Lee Roth was with the band. Later, Hagar replaced him.
