I walked 2.5 miles today though snow on a wilderness trail.

Why?

Apparently a large stretch of wilderness appeared in my basement.  I was curious where it went.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

Anyone had any experience with asian characters on computers before?
I try to paste 陸 in many places but it comes out as a V :unsure:

If the program you're pasting it into doesn't support Asian character sets (in your case, Chinese), it will appear as a weird character. IIRC you can install East Asian Language support from your XP installation CD, and probably download it from Window's website.

That was the best guess I could come up with too. Its msn I'm trying to use it with, but the other two characters show fine, its just this one is a V.
Its Japanese, I have support for east asian languages installed and they're all on the standard kanji list so its pretty odd.

I've used Korean on MSN with no problem. Not sure why it doesn't like that one.

Life has become a cliche.
I'm getting old.
I need to figure out some way of having a social life without alcohol being involved. Without becoming religious.
