My willingness to change

Installshield -6006
[info]carldem
If you gt the Installshield error -6006

Appears to be "can't create directory"  (or folder).

Check your permissions (login) and access permissions (on the My Games or Program Files etc directories/folders)

Remove (i.e. Rename!)  any existing saved games folders or similar folders/directories the program might be trying to make.




Appears the program doesn't know the difference between can't create it error, and can't create it because it's already there!  And it just bails with Yet Another Cryptic Error Message.

Chakotay  balanced, capable, spiritual, loyal.

or Tasha Yar, but she had hard childhood and was a much under utilised character.  Why are ST security folk so incapacitated?

meme

The schtick is that you comment to this post, and I list five things I associate with you. They might make sense or they might be totally random, but anyway, then you post that list, with your commentary, to your lj, I and other people get our lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself thus.


1) green silica

It's actually supposed to be green fluorite and sits on the nightstand by my bed.  It's supposed to aid logic skills. Also "Flourite is said to promote healing and enlightenment on all three planes; spiritual, mental, and emotional. It diminishes stress, aids in spiritual awakening, and grounds and protects your aura from leaking energy. It is also supposed to speed healing from pneumonia and viral inflammation. "

2) godzilla
  Interesting.  Assuming we're not noticing sexual type questions; Eat what (who) bugs ya.  Make peace with what you can't.  Don't try to eat what is bigger than your head.
 Works from virii right thru to godzillas.

3) string
(actually it's a great multitude of thin puppet strings)

It's how I perceive the world.  Each as wide as a thought, as strong as emotion and as flexible as creation. Everything that touches on something is connected.  To certain spidery senses the important ones, the ones that show as white string, carry a sense of something.
 To other senses the world is music and a dance in the form of a wave like that on a good surf beach.
Between those, chaos, darkness and plenty of light, things happen. 
 The strings help effect probability; so as the wave moves, the other forces shift around; the probabilities can be nudged for certain ongoing effects.


4) New Zealand
 First thing: shit hole.  Well ok it's a nice shithole, lots of green stuff and reasonable sized empty spaces and teeming with life.  And the people are usually quite friendly and most of them pretty trustworthy.  But the wages are pretty sad and it can make it hard to have happy people when they're so many and grasping for cash.  (And everything interesting is always happening "far away")
 Really we need more people but the greatest thing about the place is it's not so crowded so people can generally do their own thing.
 And the Land energy is awesome. Masculine (the rivers are feminine). And very raw (apparantly).  Once people work out how to connect to it it just blows them away (good wise!) but not many can because they're to stuck in their own  heads.   Which is amusing 'cause the ones that can work it are cool folks, and the others just feel like twits.

5) doom box
 Much glee.  Sadly I have had little time to implement ultimate plans of worldly domination.  At this moment they're boxed on a shelf where the kids can't get to them.  Dawn was really happy about them (although she always encounters zombie-related stuff, just not so cute!) and honestly I think it really bridged a gap, cause things been much smoother between us since it arrived. (nothing like cute random gifts from foreign parts to impress da ladies ;) )
