how to stop spam...
after you open the can
and it jumps out and runs
you hit it with a hammer.
That should stop it.

or just don't open the can.

Hello!!!!

I want it to be spring and I want it to be spring right now!!!!

Daughter's car died on her way to work this morning so after a tow and a move to another mechanic, it cost $250 for an alternator.

I guess the son's car broke down today too.

This weather is tough on cars.

Did I say I want it to be spring right now?!?!?!?

spring would be rather nice right about now.

and here's some more stuff for the good news wagon. tonite while cleaning through a bunch of crap in my closet i came across the receipt for my cash donation to my sister's high school to purchase t-shirts for their math team so they could be like all the other schools. turned the $1 that i owed the state into a $6 refund check, because it enabled me to take the state's charitible deduction. who-hoo i don't have to pay any taxes from last year!

Wow! Triggered memories of going to the hospital with my dad and little bro #1 to see my mom and little bro #2 when he was born! (I was like 3½!) Thanks Chem!

Me too, Me2 :`( sorry to hear it. I've come to the conclusion (in my case atleast) that sometimes these things happen for reasons we can't understand at the time and are for the best.

Spring? I wish it would hurry up too, but I think its gonna be a long wet one!

Bastard!

Usually the projects I think will take 10 minutes end up taking 10 weeks.

actually it might take slightly longer than 10 minutes, depending on whether or not a certain key piece of existing code has to change, but when being scaled down from 10 weeks, 10 hours is just as good as 10 minutes :) as i currently understand things, i have to change 2 names to 2 different names.

Bethany comes home this afternoon. Man our house is going to get loud. His cries sound like a lamb.

Hello!

Spent Monday night and tonight getting my Mom's computer unhosed. She's pretty good most of the time, but when she hoses stuff up, she does it very well.

The temps are above zero. How did that happen? Maybe that wishing for spring is working.

Wow! There was a shooting at a gas station in NE near our house (18th and Johnson)a couple of hours ago! A cashier was shot, but thankfully not killed. Not too many details yet- green or turquoise Lumina(?) type car with a blonde woman driving away from the scene, motive robberry. Crazy craziness.

Hi Ter! Thats great that your mom even has a comp! My Grandpa has a comp, and my other grandma has an email unit thing- learning new things keeps em young :-)

Hi Artemis!

My Mom is a true cyber grandma. She does the newsletter for her senior apartment building, keeps a directory for the building, makes signs for various activities and emails her legislative reps on a regular basis to tell them what she thinks. She lives in Roseville and has spent considerable time telling the Mayor there what she thinks...and every now and again he calls her. He spent about 45 minutes on the phone with her this evening. He really seems to care what she thinks. She's a bright woman and it's nice to see that someone asks for her opinion now and again.

I think that's one of the things that is so often missing in this country. We have elders that have good ideas and see things based on a whole life time of experience - and too often that knowledge is left untapped.

You're Mom sounds alot like my Grandma and Grandpa :-) Theres a lesson to learn in that about how to live a long healthy life!

We have elders that have good ideas and see things based on a whole life time of experience - and too often that knowledge is left untapped.

I couldn't agree more Ter! I have always felt blessed to have such a close relationship to so many wonderful grandparents! I learned so much from them all, and in some ways have been bigger influences than my parents.

Haven't seen any Vulcs lately Reg, how bout you?

Where's Neil Young?

I'm watching all the high minds wondering around the concert right now. I wish I would of remembered. It sounds like it would of been fun. I turned down free suite tickets for Kenny G. for this Saturday. I guess I really wouldn't of minded too much to see him with the whole V-day thing and all. But it was the Mrs. that didn't want to go. I thought it would be one last thing I could get from this company before they let us go. Oh well, another thing I'll miss.

spam o' the day: "your unclaimed military benefits" telling me about the gi bill benefits i earned while serving. i must have a really crappy memory, because i don't remember serving.

Clue Master - I would have taken those Kenny G tickets!!

Hope Marley and Artemis are seeing a good show. I wish I was there.

Instead of concerting, we paid bills and finished sorting through mounds of junk mail tonight.

Thats what I was wondering ;) It was a great show though! My parents(dad) gave us tickets 9th row center! The crowd could have gotten into it a little more -c'mon people suits and ties? loosen up a little ;-) I wish my dad would have gone, he would have livened em up! But the music rocked! It ended way too soon :-(

Hell yeah... the last time the Rolling Stones came here, they were at the Metrodome, and Third Eye Blind opened for em.... my dad took me to that one... theere were tons of people decked out in suits and ties....

Just wondering... If ICP or Twiztid, or Korn, or anyone else that I listen to now... is around when im in my 40's or 50's... will I be one of them suit wearing people?.... God I hope not.
