Things are getting bad......

when you come inside and your electronic thermometer tells you it is 82.3 f  and you were sure it was at least 95 out there. I just do not like the aftereffects of drugs, including antibiotics. Of course some of the aftereffects of home remedies are just as pronounced, but there you have it. Just stripped down a pair of computers and found that they were P II's. Did not realize that beforehand, but there again you have it. Now to zap a couple of 40 giggers and see what comes next. I saw where Ruby has begun a change in versions now. I guess W8 should be mumbled about shortly along with other primary system upgrades. Should we push the government to track down and just shoot the virus makers and idiot hackers, maybe string up the script-kiddies? No, I do not trust the government either. Kinda like asking Beelzebub to swat flies. (I wonder how many sci-fi readers will catch that?? If you did, remind me who wrote it as I am swimming upstream in a senior moment.)  I wonder when Apple is going to come out with Sabre Tooth (or whatever feline they think of next.) I have lost track of  Ubuntu's system names. Natty Narwhal was the last (I think) and it is running smoothly for me as I tend to update daily or whenever I bring the system up. I have to say that W7 has been doing ok so far, but as with NN I tend to update frequently and have not experienced a bad update like I had with XP one time.  Most of my W machines are still running XP quite adequately as W7 is on only 3 machines and it is likely to remain that way. Come 14 (if 12 is not the end of the world and Christ does not come) I will remove the all of the XP machines from the net and enjoy a total lack of concern about hackers, worms, viruses and governments spying on me. Maybe I will get around to that novel I thought about years ago.

Dear Mr. Polleetikciun

Dear Mr. Polleetikciun
    This is Louisiana and you are running for office. I don't care what the other guy has done that was wrong. What are you going to do that would make it right. You are in the state of "Vote for the crook, it's important!" so I really don't care who voted for a raise , but are you going to revoke it?? Didn't think so. How about are you going submit a plan that puts all legislature members under a regular health plan like the rest of us? Didn't think so. So why should I give a flatulent response about how bad the other guy is?  If you have the nerve to be a positive innovator I will vote for you. If you have the guts to do what is right, show me. I don't care if it is governor, Lt. governor or chief dog catcher of Bug Tussle if it is my vote you want, try telling the truth about what you plan to do in office. If you don't have a plan, go home.

What a strange world we are on.

I've been watching movies and football most of the day, nursing a sinus headache and apparently a minor fever. Not that they influence me all that much, but maybe it accounts for the weirdness. For some odd reason Reese Witherspoon was crossing my mind and I realised that for me, her best movie is Monsters vs. Aliens with Pleasantville a kinda close second. Why, I can't tell you, at least not without deep psychoanalysis. Cameron Diaz falls into the same boat. The Shrek series far ooutshines most of her other work for me. I wonder if it because of the cartoons I grew up with.

Best line ever for Reese:  "It's not the first time."



That was the best movie for Hugh Laurie also.....

Please do not confuse them with politicians. Just because they are blood sucking parasites with little conscience and no mercy does not mean they were elected by the uneducated mindless masses, they truly were born that way. Why, I have no idea. Not by my choice I assure you. As to the other blood sucking parasites who were elected by the uneducated mindless masses, why don't we replace them with a new set this time?
