Peter Graves died yesterday.

Thats sad. I missed his heyday but I know the name and face. Born 1925. And another alumnus of the Air Farts.

What a shame. I like movies about gladiators.

Ever been in a Turkish prison?

Midnight Express?

It was very very good movie...

Leo "Apollo11"

Midnight express ... that's a classic!

To paraphrase Basil Fawlty ... "Don't mention the RAM" ...

Yesterday I was annoyed that my Dutch cruisers didn't bombard a Jap invasion at PM like the Aussie cruisers in their TF, today they're all that's standing in the way of follow up forces whilst the Aussies race to Brisbane to rearm. What a difference a day makes

Guys, I need some tech support. GFU asked me to install some software for her accounting class on her Mac. The book comes with 2 CDs. One's for MS Dynamics (which AFAIK is Access). The other is a set of databases. Dynamics installs fine. But then you're supposed to copy the databases onto the HD. Per the instructions I tried to drag and drop the folder from the CD onto the HD, but it errors (cyclic redundancy check). Any idea what the heck that means?

Edit: Am I right in thinking that either the data on the CD is corrupted or the CD itself is damaged?

Thats quite a lesson in medieval fortification. I'd bet that Jack Aubrey wouldnt be cutting any ships out of this harbor.

I said we had to be in place no later than June 1. Obviously one goes house hunting (and on vacation) somewhat prior to the event. Maybe not, after all you are from southern California!
