The settled Minnesota Senatorial election continues to dragson. And on. And on.
Blame Norman Coleman, the failed former Senator from Minnesota, who is without a doubt washed up forever in Minnesota politics.. This whole process has revealed Coleman for what we knew he was (or is): a weak kneed goose-stepping Yes Man for the Republican Party.
Obviously, the Republicans want this whole drama to last for six years. They will do ANYTHING to keep just one more Democrat out of Congress.
As a Minnesotan, I feel that my rights are being violated. Although the recount process was executed in a non-partisan way, and the appeal was unanimously settled, Coleman continues to drag this on, filing one lawsuit after another.
When can we as Minnesotans sue Norm Coleman? His abuse of process leaves the State of Minnesota with half of the represenation in the Senate that we are constituationally entitled to.
His abuse of process leaves us weak and unserved.
Norm Coleman, go to hell. And take Rush Limbaugh with you.

Solving the Microsoft Excel Error Message, "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened"
I had to send my laptop back to the factory to get fixed recently. I included the password, and when the machine came back, the login password for my account had been disabled.
I keep a list of some website passwords in a Microsoft Excel file called WebPasswords.xls. I use one of Excel's built in encryption methods to protect the contents. Usually, when I double click on this file it opens in Excel, and I am prompted for a password. If the password is correct, the spreadsheet opens in Excel.
On this occassion after entering the password, Excel returned the message "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened."
I retrieved a backup of the file, but got the same message.
To solve this problem, I reconfigured my Windows Vista user account with my old password (the same password I had used before the Best Buy Geeks disabled the password on my account).
That did the trick, and now I am able to access my protected Excel spreadsheet. I hope this solution works for you, too.
