    Amen to that brudda... I'm sure everyone I know has always thought of me as the 'absent-minded professor' - because I can remember 'technical details' from 2 days, 2 weeks, 2 years ago... and yet, sometimes can't remember what I had for supper last night, or some of my kids' friends' names...

    Hope ya told 'em "right back atcha!" Unless you've taken steps to prevent it, it's a wonder MS didn't 'force' it on you yet. They changed the upgrade policy, and got pretty aggressive about it there for a while. After public and media pressure, they backed off a little. This is the Win10...

    If that group don't want 'cha, to heck with 'em. I stray far too often, and far too far to be considered as following the 'straight and narrow'... Five!

    Early one evening in Dodge City, Festus came riding into town buck naked. Marshall Dillon met him in the street and asked what in the Sam Hill is going on? Festus said: Well Marshall, this afternoon I rode out to see my girlfriend at their family farm. She was the only one there so we sat on...

    Good morning Good Folks! I hope this missive finds everyone doing as well as could reasonably be expected... (derp)... :confused: Well folks, think I'll skip picking back up on my postus interruptus from yesterday. Ranting here about the inequalities of executive pay is: 1. preaching to the...

    And kudos to the higher-ups... I never liked that term, nor the implicit connotations that postal workers were any more likely to snap than any other group.

    And there's the damn rub... or at least part of it. I've never been able to figure out how or why any one human being can be truly worth a million-plus dollar salary PLUS perks PLUS bonuses PLUS benefits PLUS retirement PLUS a 'golden parachute' if they get fired. Oh well... I accidentally...

    As usual, well said. I truly hope Russell takes it in the spirit in which it was intended. Myself, I haven't been issued a W-2 since 1986... plenty of 1099's though. Being self-employed is tough, but so is "workin' for da man" in a lot of cases. To begin, you have to assess your talents - what...

    You'll like that Galaxy S3, I do... we have 4 of 'em. Changeable batteries (we have 9 total), micro SD card slot, decent CPU and other specs, very capable little phone. And these days accessories such as external batt. chargers, holsters, cases, bedside docks, etc. are cheap. 1. Mine - it's...

    Ain't it though? I've long known there would come a time when Big Brother (of whatever description) could watch & listen to you... just didn't know it'd happen in my lifetime - and dang sure didn't know the fridge would tell on me if I had a popsicle before supper! Makin' a buck or two might...

    In case anyone hasn't picked up on it, I've had a case of 'drone envy' ever since Dave started posting excellent vids of his flights. Well, I finally bit the bullet, and bought this one from Amazon. :D Philosophically, I've never liked the idea of the proliferation of quadcopters in the...
