      lol, I'll figure out a good name one day, maybe....I wonder if I changed usernames how long it'd take anyone here to realize it lol.



      Moving on, any computer experts know how to create a spreadsheet on Excel to track day by day activities by the hour? I'm thinking Gantt Chart, but only ones I can find are long term day by day ones. I'm looking more for hourly ones where each activity will only take maybe 20-30 minutes.

      I don't have MS Project so that'd make things harder. But this is similar to how I'd want it. Would be nice if I could just enter activity and times in a table, and the chart updates automatically.

          Can't you just make a log in Excel? Date, amount of time, task/activity.

          Then you can run graphs and summaries on the data.

            Hopefully it's easy to do lol. I'll try that later.

            Another thing I'm trying to do is use references on multiple sheets, except I only want 1 column to be referenced on another sheet.

            I have a table set up on the first sheet that's an unlimited number of columns. So if I scroll down, the table will just expand, but if I don't scroll, the table doesn't expand (so I won't just have hundreds of blank cells in the table). I want Worksheet 2 to be the same way so that I don't have to manually update column A(Day of week) on both sheets.

            Only solution I've found so far is manually adding a new row on worksheet 2 since column A updates when I do it, but would've been easier if it could automatically show up on the other sheet without me having to add a new row. I tried making the worksheet 2 table have unlimited columns, but that leads to the blank cells having a 0 in them since those cells in worksheet 1 is blank. Which leads to thousands of cells in worksheet 2 being 0.

            Kind of confusing to explain, if someone wants me to send them the file to see what I mean/discuss over PM, I can just do it that way.

              Search for and replace the 0’s with a space?

                I found a workaround instead. Still not perfect but good enough.


                This winter storm many are experiencing is about to get worse. Schools all over are cancelled for first time since the 90s. They claim they're cancelling because buses are cancelled too, but they've never closed before despite busses being cancelled in the past and weather alot worse.

                Funny, on the news after 8am they interviewed a kid who didn't know schools closed. Its been known for 2 hours that schools are closed. Didn't bother to check TV or internet? Even funnier, after the interview ended the kid still headed towards their school, making the janitor open the door. Then more kids walked behind the reporter as they also headed to school. What's going on?

                    I saw a Michael Jackson tribute band last night and it was actually a lot of fun. My previous tribute/cover band experience was being horrified by an overweight, sweaty "Elvis" in a high-school auditorium.

                        Oh yeah. The Elvis guy was terrible.

                        Who's Bad was actually great, though. Lots of fun.

                          Kind of sad I've never thought to clean my laptop fan before.

                          Decided to just do it today(seeing if it made any difference on my laptops performance) and there was so much dust that's collected over the years. The holes for the fan to blow air out of the laptop were basically all covered in a layer of dust. Had to use 3 QTips(both ends) and pulled out some dust myself before it was clean.

                            It’s kinda weird how fans view Owners/Players in each major sport.

                            And no, it’s not the same in each sport either.

                              I was looking at buying something on Amazon but I had a question about it. I emailed the makers of the product, and they answered it within a day.

                              I go to the item page today, and they raised the price by 5% lol.

                              Lesson is, never let them know you're interested in buying.

                                Sometimes I catch myself wondering what happened to some of my old gaming friends, people I was in clans or guilds with 10+ years ago. Asheron's Call guild friends, Jedi Knight 2 clan friends, etc.


                                It's a weird feeling only knowing someone via online interactions and to simply vanish/drift apart.
