Slow Boot
 
Ever since I added an external hard drive (mass storage device, it takes
several minutes to completely load. Is there any thing I can do about
this - other than wait?

On its Census form, it checked "Other"
and then entered "Just So Special" as
its racial designation...

"Meat Plow" is reportedly a retarded hermorphotard
of undeterminable racial heritage; and/or gender
identification; and/or moral values; who's on crack,
welfare and food-stamps; then trades its dole for
ISP and shell accounts; morphs into innumerable
"identities" for solice and habitates in its
mommie's basement; while its mommie takes up the
temporary street-hooker employment to pay the water
and sewer bills; and taxi fares to the food banks
and social service offices in Ohio and surrounding
countries serviced by AARP, ACORN and NAMBLA.

HTH.
