Post by: MU B2002 on February 08, 2010, 09:37:45 AM: no, i was actually joking about sabre. That was a weak reference to The Office. I actually work for a company that manufactures construction equipment of the large, yellow variety.

Don't know how to change your DNS? In Windows, go to Network Connections > right click > properties > Select Internet Protocol > Properties > select "Use the following DNS Servers" and type in 8.8.8.8. Hit OK .. close your browser and try Scoop again.

Worth a shot.

I wish I had a job where I could play with Tonka trucks all day.

No thanks. Talked to my buddy in IT and it was an issue with my new laptop.

A new job? No.
A transfer to MKE? Yes.
