Bad news from me today .... for the first time my machine was hanged ... a repair took around 40 minutes . Planning a clean install shortly :o

Bummer :(

Today I returned from the hospital... not a good place to spend the weekend... Im worn out and will be in and out for a few days.. hope everyone had a nice holiday.... ;)

Tom, did I miss? What happened, if I might ask? Hope you are doing well now?
Today my 1987 Ford Thunderbird finally reached 100.000 miles. It now currently reads 100006.3. Not bad for a 23 year old car :)

Cool, my last (1st) car had 104,000. And my current (2nd) car is 15 1/2 and has 48,000 :) I tend to keep them, lol.

Today I'm beginning to get back to normality after my house move, I have just brought Mission Control Mk2 online at the new house.

Nice setup John. And nice sunny office, and looks like you have a nice view out the window too. You will look out the window now and then, right? :D Is that "her" on the floor?

Today, I started using my brand new Buffalo External HDD. Its my first ever purchase of a PC item apart from a whole computer itself, and I am really liking it :D I have also bought a standard male to male VGA cable so I can connect my laptop to the huge 40 inch television that is soon going to be mine :D
Here are pics:

Actually yesterday, I had to get a shot in my spinal cord.

The funny part was when after all was said and done, they slapped a band aid over the puncture and said "OK, you're good to go".

Wasn't that a scene from some comedy movie?

Today I drove past a fatal accident. All I saw was a body under a sheet in the middle of the road surrounded by the Police and paramedics.

Heard on the news later it was a 20 year old student who slammed his scooter into a power pole. The power pole won.

It bummed me out a little and was just another stark reminder how fleeting life actually is.
