Can You Watch HAMNation?
I don't know if it is Vista® or some other virus (just kidding I am the third-to-last Sharanskyite and the last guy who likes Vista®) but I have not been able to watch the video clips at TownHall in many months.
Granted most of them are just telling me how swell Governor Romney is and how bad "illegals" are, but I have always enjoyed Mary Katherine Ham's HamNation clips. I get the player up, I click, and then I get control buttons but nothing ever plays.
This work for you?

It did run for me, under Vista with Firefox. MKH doesn't seem as cute in this one as in others, don't you think? Or it might be because I'm getting pretty committed and try to keep my eyes only on a certain someone. Anyway, I run NoScript and had to give permission to townhall.com and a few other sites, but it worked.
My new Dell finally arrived yesterday (the huge volume of back-to-school orders has been giving them LCD supply problems, I was told). It's my first experience with Vista. Seems ok, and Vista SP1 is supposed to fix a lot, but until I see big improvements, my favorite Microsoft OS is still Windows 2000. Now that was a solid system, still a gig+ in required space, but I thought it ran the smoothest of all Microsoft's releases.

Don't know if Ms. Ham has become less cute or your eyes are glazing -- I'll try Firefox.
