But...but...I never fall and I'm always careful. Maybe Indiana is trying to tell me something.
I think what it's trying to tell you is: "Slow down! Take it easy. Don't think you have to get everything done ASAP."
OOH! Where's it gonna go? Inquiring minds want to know.
I taught myself to program in Basic, and then decided to go deeper with assembly language / machine code. But C Language ended up being my bread and butter back in the day.
It's trying to tell you to sllllooooooooow down! This is a relaxed state. Well, at least this part of it. Probably why everyone down here is so broke!
Yesterday I was tooling around your neck of the woods in town with my BF. I commented on the fact that the trees in town still have some really pretty color. He said, and I quote: "Them's town trees. They don't know no better." But the way, he may talk like a backwoods Hoosier, but he's an educated man. Just sayin'.
Ah! Just to make everyone grin:
Rave, that video did make me grin.
I can't help it. It's in my nature. I'm on a mission to get things put away and organized but....I am taking it easy tonight. I'm watching a movie.
Wow! That's amazing! I was impressed when I was a kid, and the lady across the street where we stayed at the shore would leave her parrot in its cage out on the front porch, and it heard and mimicked the sounds of children playing in the neighborhood, laughing and crying, etc. Then when we lived in California, there was a mockingbird in the yard that started mimicking the sound of my phone ringing. At first, I'd think it was really my phone and run into the house to answer it, but then it dawned on me that it was a bird. I called it the "phone bird."
But those have a poor showing compared to the sounds that lyrebird made. Quite impressive.
Once again, I'll post a good-night photo now, though I may still check in later. This is from the Corning Museum of Glass. I want to take the kids there someday, but next Sunday, it's the zoo!
Well my PC finally blew (psu "power supply") So i must order a new one and i don't know when that'll be. Lovely!
Lovely!
Have the ability to change capacitors inside? Probably they blew up. Open it and take few pics.
I just want to says thanks to all the Vets out there for what you did for US and to all the current service members for what you do.
Celt, what kind of computer? I have a bunch of stuff hanging around that is due to get recycled. I may have a power supply in one of them that will work for you if you feel up to replacing a power supply yourself.

Celtic, yes, see if you can get it fixed. Especially if Awsum can give you the part. If you don't feel up to doing it, maybe you can hire someone to replace it for you.

Some times, it's funny just to see ME at my computer.
Example
broad
brôd/Submit
adjective
1.
having an ample distance from side to side; wide.
"a broad staircase"
synonyms: wide
"a broad flight of steps"
antonyms: narrow
(after a measurement) giving the distance from side to side.
"the valley is three miles long and half a mile broad"
synonyms: wide, across, in breadth, in width
"the leaves are two inches broad"
large in area; spacious.
"a broad expanse of prairie"
synonyms: extensive, vast, immense, great, spacious, expansive, sizable, sweeping, rolling
"a broad expanse of prairie"
2.
covering a large number and wide scope of subjects or areas.
"a broad range of experience"
3
Word for a woman. Less respectable than lady but much more respectable than ......
Man, look at those two broads. They are smokin.
A term originated in the 1930's meaning woman; derived from the fact that the most defining characteristic of all females are their hips, which are proportionally wider than the hips of their male counterparts.
"Look at those broads."
Now i have to choose which is the correct one

Trit, while you were deciding about "broad," I was looking up "runcible spoon." Edward Lear coined the word "runcible" and didn't assign it any meaning, since it can refer to other things than an eating utensil, but I think commonly, it's what's also known as a spork.
BTW, here's a good demo of the word "broad." It's a song from the musical South Pacific.

It confused me a bit at the start because od broadband antennas, broadband connection etc.
I'm not quite sure what "broadband" means, but maybe the wavelengths are wider or something? I bet Awsum might explain it and how "broad"fits in there.
Broadband - As applied to antennas - capable of being moderately efficient over a relatively large frequency range, as in about 3-5 percent. Higher gain levels are only available with narrow band or specific frequency antennas.
Broadband - As applied to transmission mediums, such as cable - Cover a very broad range of frequencies, typically from 1mhz to as high as several ghz, or even higher in the case of fiber optic cable, on the same cable. This allows for multiple "wide" channels like those needed for video broadcast on a single cable.
Broad - In the vernacular - The fairer sex, especially with a curvaceous figure.

Thanks, Awsum. I knew you'd be the go-to person for the explanation of broadband. So I was right in an overly simplified way.
