Anybody know how to make an apostrophe on a Spanish Keyboard?

I don't know if anybody has noticed, but I can't write apostrophes when posting from work. I have to put a kind of disembodied accent that looks passable as an apostrophe.

Way easier on a mac. ñ is alt+n then n again, but you can hit a and do ã, o and do õ, etc. LOL at having to enter code. Come on Gates, step your game up.

WTF is this, Contra?

I've noticed. All of my hits were for typing spanish keyboard accents with an english keyboard.

Shame on you, are you even a Bobcats' fan? alt+135 = ç ! (of course it is french but that doesn't matter)

First things first - I am moving Nowitzki to knucklehead category.
Image
Suspended for flagrant foul on Kirilenko.

With my 4th pick I'm choosing José Manuel Calderón from Spain for Euro category
Image
He is playing the right way, his excellent free throw shooting will win games for us in crunch time, solid defender and he knows how to deliver the ball to the big man with range (Nowitzki) and how to make him better from playing in Toronto with Bargnani. Paired with Joe Johnson they averaged 14.7 apg, I think that would be sufficient ball movement.

With my other pick I'm choosing David Lee for the whitey category. I simply can't resist those 11.7 rpg.

Image
As you can see he is thrilled to play for a team without über-annoying Nate Robinson Image

Did you guys know that Vince Carter is not eligible for any categories? American born black guy who has made the all-star game but not in the last two years, averages over 8ppg, has never been suspended and wasn't drafted in the last 3 years but is under 35.

In light of this, I will select Andrei Kirilenko. Flexible, an elite defender, very understanding wife, and I don't have to pay his salary. He will count as my European born player, and I will be slotting Gasol into "all-star."

And just for fun, here's his wife Masha:

Funny you should say that Paydro because I spent about an hour last week trying to find a way to fit him in and couldn't. It was driving me nuts!

I'm going with:

Image

Lamar Odom as my knuckle head.

As a starter Odom averaged 14pts, over 11 boards, almost 3 assists, a steal and a block and a half per game and a starter at my 4 spot is what he is going to be as a perfect compliment to Chandler.

We are thrilled to add yet another versatile player to surround KD with.

PG: Kidd
SG: Harden
SF: Durant
PF: Odom
C : Chandler
