Medicare premiums have been increased so your benefits have been prorated
to match your previous premium payments.  Those "free drugs" have now been
outsourced to the neighborhood crack dealers and they are no longer free,
but you now have a bigger/better selection depending on the amount you are
prepared to pay.  The nice nurses have been replaced by nurses that they
had to bring out of retirement -- former nurses were making exorbitant wage
demands.  And, there has even been cutbacks to the amount of jello being
distributed because it is a petroleum by-product and everyone knows about
the price of crude oil these days....  ;-((

To prevent being chastised by Alan:

I have a Canon i550 printer on my Windows XP Pro box and it is setup to
share across the network with a share name of Canoni55.  Windows 98 SE sees
the printer just fine and I can print from that box just fine (even when
the XPP box is powered off).  Windows 2000 Pro is constantly telling me
that the printer is offline...  Could you make some suggestions to help me
fix the printer problem on the W2K box?

           Cheers ... Gerald
