Prayer to St. Gates
The Lord is my laptop; I shall not freeze.
You open me up into vast search engines,
And within robust firewalls, I am protected.
You refresh my e-connections
And lead me through complex websites for your name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the dark auspices
Of Internet pornography and doom,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
You prepare a workstation for me
In full view of the unions and the managers.
You have anointed my VDU with screen cleaners,
And my RAM gets fatter.
May only e-mails of praise and high performance indicators
Find me all the days of my life
As I hit the keyboards of an Internet café
For all of real time.


TTFN,

Mike

More than first meets the eye. Because if B is the right answer, then it's wrong! Because that makes A or D the right answer. Which makes them wrong, because then B is right answer...

Doh!!!

Hi all,

Anyone here used Google SketchUp for some simple 3D work?


Leo "Apollo11"


I'm learning the program here at the office. Interesting program. It'll be useful for presentation drawings. Bit of a learning curve from AutoCAD.

Got my car broken into over the weekend.......fortunately the laptop was not in it, but my bookbag was.....containing my new Kindle, meds, reading glasses and gasp.....my hard copy of AE. Oy. Should have known better to be putting stuff in the trunk at night. The Jackalope who i very much hope mixes the two meds he stole together.....in quantity, must have been watching.

To add insults to injury.....I have to pay $400 in car repairs and still owe money on the Kindle.

Moral of story. DONT leave anything in the car if you can avoid it. I had to re-learn my lesson the hard way. So pissed at myself i'd let Terminus give me a free kick in the pants and then probably ask for another.

Status: offline 		Well, I had my first colonoscopy this morning. After they drugged me up, I was still aware enough to know what they were doing, but I really didn't give a rats ***. The worst part was not eating anything solid for 2 days. One day was required and 2 were suggested. That second day made a big difference though. When I took the stuff to clean me out, there wasn't much to clean out.

By the way, I'm clean as a whistle. No more of that fun for 10 years.

Status: offline 		Morning tithe... Spent most of yesterday laying on a hospital bed with a tube coming out of me, and today I am unplugged and free all day. What a difference a day makes, as I have had over eight hours deep dreamy sleep last night. I feel great, walking round on my tippy-toes, isn't life a wonderful thing.

I had that done earlier in the year, did they use the new one, or the old Annal Intruder 2000?

Congratulations on the Clean driveway there also Mike.

Sorry to hear the news there Nik, but don't beat yourself up to much about leaving it there. As the person who was the Jerk, was the one who broke-in.

I had only 24 hours no eating. But I had to drink that 1 gallon mixture to clean out the plumbing. I did a little cheating though. You see there was this venison roast I had made the night before....well you know. The next day at the clinic they called me in and I had this can of Canada Dry seltzer water. They sent me home for an hour and a half. I came back. Then I fessed up to the venison roast. You didn't! Oh' yes I did. But I challenge you to find anything in my system after the transfer of my plumbing to the house plumbing. In I went. They totally put me out. Thank God for that. I had my WitP-AE manual while waited in the waiting room. The doctor saw that. Oh, Gary Grigsby. I know his stuff. So it all worked out. They found three polops. Now I get to go back in three years. Blech!
