Ding-dong!
I was working in the yard earlier this week, when a pair of Mormons showed up on our block. They were working the opposite side of the street, so I ignored them and continued working. Well, the moment my back was turned, with the loud trimmer going, they made a bee-line for me. I turned around and they were RIGHT THERE. They're both darn lucky I ( Read more... ) -
Damn you, Steve Jobs!
I went to the mall today, and came home with the BIGGEST purse I've bought in over two decades. It has handles and a shoulder strap. Seriously, it's just this side of 'luggage'.

Once a geek ...
I just outlined a House fanfic. I haven't tried writing fiction in years. Maybe it's like riding a bike (or falling off a log)? Guess I'll find out. Need to research a few details first, then going to dive in.

iPad
Now that I've had it for a week, and have had some time to play with it, a few thoughts:
The Bad:- The wi-fi is squirrelly. Apple knows this, and have promised a downloadable fix ... eventually. In the meantime, every time I take it out of sleep mode, I have to go into the settings and toggle the wireless off and on, or it will drop the ( Read more... )
