Somehow, I think that I enjoy your pictures, stories and history lessons even more because I got to
meet and ride with you this past summer. I'm not sure there is a point, but I hope to have that
pleasure again soon. Our better halfs need to be involved though, my wife is opposed to me having
fun without her, and I wouldn't want it any other way!

You have that same problem too?

probably older than the hills....)
Dear IT Support,
About 2 years ago, I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Buds 4.2 which I had used for years
without any trouble.
However, there are apparently conflicts between these two products.
To make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several other applications, such as Bike
Riding 3.1, Football 5.0 and Playboy 6.9. Successive versions of Girlfriend proved no better. A
shareware program I tried, Party Girl 2.1 had many bugs and left a virus in my system, forcing me to
shut down completely for several weeks. Eventually, I tried to run Girlfriend 1.0 and Girlfriend 2.0
at the same time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other they caused
severe damage to my hardware.
I then upgraded to Fiancé 1.0 only to discover this product soon had to be upgraded further to Wife
1.0. Whilst Wife 1.0 tends to use all my available resources, it does come bundled with FreeS*x
Plus, Cook 7.0 and Cleanhouse2002.
Shortly after this upgrade, however, I found Wife 1.0 can be very unstable and costly to run. For
example, any mistakes I made were automatically stored in Wife 1.0's memory and can not be deleted.
These mistakes then resurfaced months later long after I had forgotten about them.
Wife 1.0 also has an automatic Diary Explorer and E-mail filter, and can without warning launch
Whinge-zip!. this crashes FreeS*x Plus, which is very hard to start again.
These latter products have no help files so I have to try and guess what the problems are.
Wife 1.0 also has conflicted with Mtb 4.3 and Roadbike 3.2 these programs need regular updates and
maintenance but Wife 1.0 keeps warning me that its an illegal operation if i upgrade or Run them too
often, although when i upgraded Mtb 3.95 to Mtb 4.0 it caused no harm to my system, maybe because
their interface was a close match Wife 1.0 didn't cause any conflicts, it could have also helped
that checkbook 10.0 and Creditcard 2.0 where turned off at the time.
I have thought about buying cyclocross 1.0 and trying to get my stored and encrypted Mtb 2.4 to run
in single speed mode but i am afraid it will be to much for Wife 1.0 to run well, without further
upgrading.
Additional costly problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly, sometimes self updating and
starting app's without my input, example Shoe Shop Browser and Clothes Shop Browser, they are very
costly, and seem to start at the same time often and do nothing but increases storage needs and
cost, plus they have not let me run Defrag since the first time they ran, then there is Hairstyle
Express which needs to be reinstalled every other week.
When Wife 1.0 interfaces with my Audi hard drive, it often crashes or runs the system dry without
warning, even when there is no harm done after Wife 1.0 interfaces with my Audi hard drive, all the
settings are messed up and need to be reset before i can use it again.
Wife 1.0 also comes with a rather annoying pop-up called Mother-In-Law, which can't be turned off.
Wife 1.0 also spawns unexpected child processes that drain my resources.
Further more, i know people who have upgraded to Wife 2.0 and some to wife 3.0.. they report similar
problems after having spent Huge sums of money upgrading, so i would like to keep using Wife 1.0 ...
as long as i can, with full IT support for Wife 1.0
PS... FreeS*x Plus is your best App, any chance there will be a upgrade, so it has more options.

Email me, I'm up for that ... if we are around. Long range forcast for Dgo has snow and rain on
26/27, but that is pretty far out to be accurate for the area. Purgatory (or Durango Mountain
Resort) opens those days. Have you ever ridden Phil's World out near Cortez? Reminds me of
Fruita riding.

This was great. LOL. I've read variations over the years, but the bike-specific parts really hit
home. I'm going to download this into wife 1.0 and see what she thinks.

Be sure to use some form of protection so you don't inadvertently give her a virus.

Proceed with caution, or you might get "connection refused" for quite awhile.

No kidding. Ever since school started she's been watching our daughter's Pommeranian, who is the
cuddliest little house rat imaginable.
So she doesn't need me, it seems. But we worked it out. I'm a lot more assertive about when it's
time for system maintenance and more frequent downloads.

So what... Just ditch Wife 1.0 and go Linux. Much less maintenance.

But I prefer the user interface on wife 1.0. Plug-n-play. :-)
