9.24.98 - GnomeNEWS One of the first nicknames I ever gained was the "Tasmanian Terror." As a young child, I was plagued with ear problems. I was in and out of the hospital more than half the doctors. And, of course, when you go to the hospital, they just LOVE to stick you with needles. Now, do you think I like needles? THINK ABOUT IT. I didn't get over my fear until years later when I had to take allergy shots. I'm sure there are several hearing-impaired nurses walking around today. Nobody could scream louder than I. NOBODY. What I'm waiting for is the day where better technology exists to completely get rid of shots and needles. Shots are so medieval. In fact, I think if I were ever captured by an enemy and threatened with a needle, I'd buckle without thinking twice. I'd much rather drink a gallon of motor oil than receive a shot. I know I'm not alone, either. I know that there was talk of some sort of "gun" a long while back, but I've yet to see something like that here in Iowa. Anyway, this gun would supposedly throw gas through your skin without puncturing it. Isn't there some kind of pill available to take the place of shots? Who cares if it won't work as quickly. If I don't have anywhere else to go, give me a pill. I'm firmly convinced that humanity will not leave the "dark ages" without first getting rid of the needle. Those things hurt. OUCH! GnomePROGRAM CDML Advanced Calculator v1.0.1 [1.0M] FREE W9x/NT4 My dad's an accountant, so you can imagine he's very "in touch" with his calculators (and adding machines). I think we still have this old clunker at home--one of the first electronic calculators. I remember using it to help me get through long division (somewhat). It probably cost as him as much as a new PC would nowadays. This little downloadable gem puts even the Windows 9x calculator to shame. On top of basic mathematical functions, it has a "tape" display, English/Metric conversions, a scientific Expression Evaluator, plus financial functions. It's a calculator for the above-average user. But, even if you'd never use some of those advanced functions, having "tape" abilities could definitely come in handy. It adds up! [ DOWNLOAD ] [ VISIT SITE ]

GnomeCANDY Lisa's Halloween Icons v1.0 [45k] FREE W9x/NT4 I think my favorite costume to wear for Halloween was "Han Solo." It really wasn't much of a costume... just a long sleeve white shirt, dress pants, and a nifty black vest. If I let my hair grow out long enough, I might have passed for a very short Chewbacca. I usually came home with tons of mini candy bars (I've always hated candy corn). Trick or Treat? Well, this icon set is a definite treat. You'll get black bats, black cats, witches, Jack O'Lanterns, skeletons, skulls, vampires, ghosts, and candies! Sprinkle your Desktop and Explorer with some spooky 32x32 stuff.

GnomeDESKTOP FONT: Action Jackson [34k] One of the reasons I can't remember many of the class lectures I had as a child was because I doodled incessantly. I'm just not much of an audio learner, or so I found out years later. This font reminds me of how I'd draw 3D lettering on countless notebooks. Hey, maybe if my teachers had been a little more exciting, I wouldn't have doodled quite as much. [ DOWNLOAD ] [ VISIT SITE ]
GnomeTIP
Yes, I get hundreds of e-mail messages every day. I'd like to save
certain ones, but some of them have large attachments. Once you've
extracted and used an attachment, you shouldn't need it anymore
(though the message might still need to be saved). In Outlook 98,
you can remove the attachment by opening the e-mail message,
right-clicking on the attachment icon, and selecting "Remove" from
the menu. That should save some precious disk space!
