You had to actually get a screen capture program? The capability isn't native to the Windoze operating system like it is to Mac OS? You poor child. :evil2:
Trying to produce training materials utilizing screen shots in Windows is very time consuming. Even with a screen capture program, it's a major pain.
I have been using Tech Smith's Snag It for years, making training materials and all kinds of pic captures, a three key salute opens a capture session, and away you go.

My gf had some people come to her restaurant and one of them asked what beers they have on draft - and they have Sam Adams. As soon as she mentioned it everyone groaned except for one guy....


Apparently that group of friends has some game they play where whenever one of them orders a Sam Adams they ALL have to. I thought it was funny because SA's boston lager is OK, but it's not amazing, and definitely not my beer of choice....so being forced to have one would be pretty entertaining IMO.

That's free.
I was amazed to find Shiner Bock on the beer list in Gillette WY a couple of years ago, and amazed my traveling companions by ordering one, when they knew, empirically, that I never drank anything but water or iced tea.

42....Now there's a great Texas game, played at deer camps throughout the generations.
Thereby proving my postulation that Douglas Adams must have spent time in Texas before becoming a hitchhiker, because here it truly is the answer.

Of course, it's because .... Oh look, a squirrel.... where were we again?

We were asking about the CHL Badge and where we should place them on body...should we have a badge holder or hang it across our necks?....
The CHL badge goes on the shoulder of your uniform as with your woodsman badge and citezenship badge. :rules:
And don't forget your Ham Radio Operator badge.

That trick also works with alarm keypads.

I would even let my ten year old grand daughter read the thread, if I had one that young.
