Good morning,

Thank you for the avatar love and welcomes!
Tired this morning, went to watch my son's band play last night.. The bar owner is vape friendly so my wife and I were vaping away. Several people wanted to touch and hold my Reo Grand (drunk people are so uninhibited) ... One woman said, that looks like a walkie talkie.. heh.
Looking at houses today, and then my youngest has a football game tonight.

If I may offer a small piece of computer advice, (I am a certified systems administrator, so this is right up my alley)

I use a few programs on my own personal computer to maintain a safe manageable level of integrity without bogging down my system.

1. Microsoft Security Essentials
2. Malwarebytes Anti Malware, this program is free, there is also a paid version, for 24.95 you get real time protection. (I paid for this myself, and I do not regret it)
3. WinPatrol (this is a free program, there is also a paid version) that helps novices and pros alike better understand what is running at any given time on their systems, it also informs you of a pending change that you have the ability to allow or disallow. I refer to it almost every day.
4. Revo uninstaller - this is a free much more intuitive uninstaller then the default windows uninstaller.
5. CCleaner- Free also, this used to be called Crap Cleaner but the crap was dropped. It does just that, with the click of a button once a day you can clear all temp files on your computer. Temp areas are a harbinger for malicious code and executable files.

Second cup of coffee incoming..........

Nice to meet you Spoons. I use CCleaner, but am curious as to what things you remove daily? Which buttons should I click is the question, I have some programs I run for games and I don't like to clear out the settings on them, just want the crap gone. It seems when I run it, I always wipe out my script settings and it takes a bit of time to set it all back up. Thanks in advance for the tips!

ETA: Perhaps what NOT to check would be easier, thanks!

This is my leg, pain has settled. Just on basic pain killers and some morphene for when it's bad. Lol. They had trouble waking me after the op. I guess I like to sleep in even after surgery. I've caught up on my sleep. It's good to be home. I think I posted I was out before, but I was seriously out of it. Lol.

I haven't been around lately and didn't know of your situation. Hope you heal ASAP. Im surprised to see a hard cast. I nearly severed my foot off completely and was able to get a boot cast.

Yer I tore my syndesmosis, or a grade 3 ankle sprain. They use different terms. It's just the tendons that hold the tib and fib bones together above the ankle. I did a fairly bad one, so they cut me open cleaned up the joint, reattached the tendons and put some screws in. When I woke up and saw the cast I thought they broke my leg. Lol. They said it's to ensure I don't put any weight on the leg and to provide some protection. 3 months and the screws come out and they make sure I don't need another op. I'll go crazy if I need another one. Reos don't pay for themselves.

Morning everyone.

mogs, I told you to be careful and to make sure you put it back in the right way. Now I'm laughing at you and not even sorry I am. :p

Your reducer tube is waiting for my mail lady to pick up. No tracking number though as it's in a letter envelope.

harley, since when you get to be lazy today? Don't you have leaves you need to clean up?

Thanks Scoot. 2.1 Hammertone on the way! First mini. And if my luck holds, I'll be getting my very first Woodie around Christmas!!

Oh boy Mr. Ed..... you'd best save up for two of those beauties...I am:laugh:

That'll make four if I'm lucky and swift enough to score them. My poor lonesome Mini.2.1's have sadly taken a backseat to the two woodies I now keep continually in my hot little hands.


I'llbe going to the classies sometime after Christmas....
