Alright I'm not going into the story...but lets jsut say the question I'm asking is seriously determining the course of my life as I know it. I know it sounds silly and crazy expecially as te question doesn't seem to have any importance on a normal everyday life, but the answer could weed out a lie that I was told.

you know how on widows it sometimes saves what you type, so say if you went to type something into a subject line and it started with the same letters a dropd-down menu would pop up and you can choose what for it to say, instead of typing it all out. does it only work with things you type, or can it also pick up things you've read?

It's "auto-complete." Only works on items you've typed...

I prefer to refer to it as "opportunity". ;)

Some spyware can cause issues with auto-complete, though. So don't hurt him too badly...

Maybe the question and her hurting her husband are unrelated. Maybe he was waiting for her in the bedroom or something. "Did someone answer you already, honey? This rubber mask is starting to chafe!"

Hee! :D


Yeah, make sure you're absolutely sure of any bad stuff before you strike. Take it from someone who's had a lot of experience with these issues in the past 5 years.
