Okay to all who had a silent, quiet night!! I will send my kids to you!!

4 yr old son Gavin.... energetic 24/7

and 13 yr daughter Sarah - most of the time, is quiet drawing,
but yesterday wanted to argue back at her brother.

I went to bed at 9pm last night, woke up at 9am.

I think this is the first time in months I've gotten more than 6 hours of sleep a night.

Real interesting day...

I am at this big fancy car dealership, have the copy machine tore apart, as in all over the floor in multiple pieces, and this salesman walks into the office, and asks if he can squeeze in a quick copy?????

I almost said yeah sure, go for it...

Wayne, that made my DAY!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the laughs!!!

I would have loved to see the look on your face when the salesman asked you that!!!

Well, this line's overused, but...


Here's your sign ?

That's where I got started in IT work, way back when copiers, fax machines and typewriters were still in common use.

Seen it all......

These young kids today come right out of high school trained in computers and networking, but can they overhaul a xerox?

when I got on the computer this morning the headlines about that Tennessee coal sludge spill was the first news related item I saw
it seemed pretty big
I hope none of our members are affected - and I don't mean just today, but apparently that stuff is going to keep moving down stream and disperse
the interesting thing was that I then (being at my inlaws who have cable) I went to go see it on TV news, and CNN had it as a tiny btw toward the end of their news cycle, after christmas shopping, wheather, air traffic, etc - I guess they don't want to spoil the holiday spirit
kind of weird in light of the fact that the NY Times did seem to think it was a top story front page news
here's the most detailed web coverage I found
Massive Coal Sludge Spill Devastates Tennessee Town
i'd be pretty bummed if I was down there, even if my house wasn't affected - talk about a black christmas

Rhea that is so sad.... I have friends in TN, I messaged them to make sure it was not near them.

[infernalis]

That sucks...

Good heavens, what a mess.
I'm giving extra thanks today for my good Christmas. Have to take time to realise how lucky I am..........
