Lunchtime with Tony’s Pizza. Have One!
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Tony’s Pizza. All opinions are 100% mine.
I’ve let it slip a few times how much I like pizza, but then again who doesn’t. It’s especially easy to eat here at my desk or watching a late-night video.
Tony’s® Pizza contacted me and sent me some coupons. They asked me to try their pizza, on them, and asked that I tell you about it, and share the coupons.
Now I’m enjoying Tony’s Pizza’s Cripsy Crust pepperoni pizza — I’ll have pictures of this up later — fresh from my oven. Only took 12 minutes. It has a generous amount of steamy tomato sauce and golden brown melted mozzarella cheese. It’s so easy to make I can see myself eating more for lunch (okay, and dinner) at my computer desk.
I’d eat the whole thing, but my daughter is home today, and she loves pizza, too. As young as she is, she is very picky and, normally, doesn’t like pepperoni; but here she is eating her second slice! I think it’s fum for kids because its chunks of pepperoni are easy for young pizza lovers to bite and swallow.
Free Tony’s® Pizza for you, too?

Failed Windows Update Installations (Office 2007)
Update (Thurs. 3/11. 12:18am) : As of late Wednesday evening the page for “Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB977724)” appears to have been “taken down” by Microsoft. No word — that I can find — as to why. Possibly related to an error mentioned in the reader comments for this article.
Yesterday was Tuesday, and Tuesday is the day Microsoft typically issues the free Windows Updates to patch any security problems that have been discovered, fix flaws, remove malicious software (Windows Malicious Software Tool) and add new features.
Four of the six updates my computer downloaded for installation failed to install properly. These were all Microsoft Office 2007 updates:
- Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB977724)
- Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 (KB978382)
- Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB978380)
- Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Junk Email Filter (KB979895)
If you’ve had the same problem with these updates then you will have to manually download and install them. It’s not that difficult to do, and I’ll make it easier by providing you with links to Microsoft’s download pages for these updates. You’ll see two links on each line, but they both take you to the same page.
- Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB977724) – Filename: office-kb977724-fullfile-x86-glb.exe
- Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 (KB978382) - Filename: excel2007-kb978382-fullfile-x86-glb.exe
- Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB978380) - Filename: office2007-kb978380-fullfile-x86-glb.exe
- Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Junk Email Filter (KB979895) - Filename: office2007-kb979895-fullfile-x86-glb.exe
Download
Just click the links above to go to the appropriate download page, then click the “Download” button on each page. Choose the “Save” option, and save them to either your desktop, your documents folder, or your downloads folder. Anywhere you can easily find them later on. If you have to install them on more than one computer you might consider saving them to a flash drive.
Installation
Once you’ve downloaded them, you will need to run them as an administrator. You can’t do this with your typical double-click.
- Right-click on the file (point at the file, and click the right mouse button, not the left mouse button) and choose “Run as administrator” from the shortcut menu that appears.
- If the User Account Control dialog box appears — for you Windows Vista and Windows 7 users — asking “Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer?”, click “Yes”.
- Click the checkbox to accept the Microsoft License Terms, then click “Continue”.
Repeat the process above for each of the downloaded files, and that’s it. Your updates should be properly installed at this time.
I wrote about a similar “Failed Windows Update Installations (Office 2007)” problem back in November 2009.

Coupons to Save on Best Sellers at TigerDirect until March 13
Oh, man, I hate including the number 13 in any of my headlines, but at least that date isn’t a Friday, it’s a Saturday. Small consolation.
Here’s a list of some best selling items I’ve found at Tigerdirect.com. I’m uncluding coupon codes you can use at checkout to save even more on their already low prices. You can check out their special pricing for Skylarking readers here, or read on while I spotlight some of the hot items.
SAVE $10 on an EVGA GeForce 9500 GT Video Card
($59 after using coupon code FEC1228 at checkout.) Do your computer games or video images appear to “stutter” or seem to move in an unusal manner? Then you should consider getting this video card replacement. It uses its own 1 gigabyte of DDR2 RAM (memory) instead of sharing the regular memory used by your computer’s programs. All you need is an available PCIe, or PCI express 2.0, slot on your motherboard. (Contact me or your manufacturer to find out if your computer has such capability.)
If you need real high end video support for 3D gaming, then consider getting two of these cards since they support SLI Dual Link technology. With SLI you can have two video cards linked together for double the video processing power. One card alone provides all the high def power you’ll need for gaming or video playback. Imagine the potential of two cards.
Each card comes with two DVI connectors and adapters for connecting your PC to any monitor or an HDTV. Two connectors allows you to have two monitors connected to your PC, if you need that. For example, I’m using two monitors on my Windows 7 computer, so I can run a different program on each monitor.
Dual Monitor setup on one PC
Right now I have the Tigerdirect site on one screen while I’m writing this post in another screen. Or I could be playing a video on one while working on the other. A client of mine uses two of these video cards for running 4 monitors on his home computer. He’s a day trader, and it allows him to monitor the stock market on multiple web sites while communicating with his colleagues.
Additional specs: Supports Microsoft® DirectX® 10 games, HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc® movies with brilliant clarity — as long as you have a HD or Blu-ray capable DVD player in your computer — powered by the PureVideo® HD engine. Include GeForce GPU support for NVIDIA PhysX technology for all you high tech gamers for a more dynamic and realistic experience. Full Vista Aero 3D support.
SAVE $27 on OCZ 4GB PC3-10666 Platinum RAM
(Regularly $106.99, now only $79.99 after $20 mail-in rebate (expires 03/31/10) and $7 instant savings.) Most new PCs today can handle 4 gigabytes of RAM (memory), but when you bought it it probably came with only 2 GB. Now not just any RAM will do, but I’ve never had a problem yet with memory chips from OCZ. More RAM makes your computer start faster, your programs start and run faster, and your hard drive doesn’t work so hard either. Let your hard drive take it easy with these memory chips. I’d recommend checking with tech supprt at TigerDirect to make sure this memory is appropriate for your PC.
Are you running a 64-bit operating system? Then you might consider getting two pairs since your computer may be able to handle up to 8 gigabytes of RAM. Just go into your Windows Control panel and double click on System to see if you’re running a 64-bit OS. It will be clearly indicated.
Tech specs for those in the know: This PC3-10666 RAM designed specifically for the upcoming Intel® P55 Chipset and subsequent Intel® Core™ i7, i5, and i3 (Socket 1156) processors. Configured for dual channel mode, these ultra-compatible 4GB kits ensure optimal performance with an ideal combination of low power requirements at 1333MHz.
I’ll talk more about some of the specials I’ve found, but here are a few quickies for now:
SAVE $40 – FREE Shipping – BFG GeForce 9800 GT Video Card. This 1 gigabyte GDDR3 equipped card fits into any PCIe 2.0 slot on your motherboard. Like the card above it supports dual monitors with its two DVI connectors for use on your monitor or HDTV. Regularly $139.99, now only $99.99* after $10 rebate (expires 03/31/10) and $30 instant savings.
SAVE $50 – FREE Shipping – Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300. Get a high speed processor for your demanding programs. This has a 2.50GHz clock speed for a 1333MHz FSB (front system bus). This is a Quad Core processor for ”original equipment manufacturers” (OEM). That means it costs a lot less because it doesn’t come in a colorful box like you’d see on the shelf. Uses a Socket 775 connector. $149.99* after $40 MIR, rebate expires 03/15/10.
