Windows Update

feeds@yuku.com (tvcats) — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 08:21:53 GMT

Has anyone else gone through the XP Service Pack 3 update yet? I dealt with that all day yesterday on my two computers. Both of them had their own set of problems related to getting it d/l'ed and installed. But I think they are both ready to go now. I have encountered a couple of random errors, but they seem to correct themselves quickly. If you haven't been there yet - good luck. If you've gone through it already - let me know how it went for you.

I have had my...

I am making an unexpected trip to Houston tonight after work. Actually, I'm leaving work early. I do not know when I'll be back (either Saturday or Sunday afternoon). Nothing serious - it is for fun. Tomorrow is Grandparents Day at the school for my grandbabies & I got invited this year. This is my first time around for Grandparents Day, so I'm a greenhorn at it. Wish us all luck!

BTW, not sure if...

A Taste of Home

feeds@yuku.com (tvcats) — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 08:47:59 GMT

I saw this article & it brought such good memories flooding back to me. Mother and I used to go out and pick our own veggies when we lived in Las Cruces. They were so good right off the vine (especially the tomatoes!). I'm glad to see that it's still done:

Moon Hoax ...

"Why not look through telescopes to see the landers."

Found this on my homepage. Thought I'd share.

In July 1969, Man first walked on the Moon. Over the course of three more years, we did it five more times.
Despite the return of hundreds of kilos of rocks, thousands of pictures, and independent verification and authentication from dozens of countries (some of which were and still are our enemies), some people stubbornly...

Things that Infuriate Me

feeds@yuku.com (tvcats) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 09:14:26 GMT

Here is an example. This is an article where a man, previously convicted of murder, has been out on the streets. I cannot describe to you how outraged I am that murderers and rapists and child molesters are allowed out of prison. Anyway, here is the article on this one:

Baby Bear Watch

feeds@yuku.com (tvcats) — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 17:02:33 GMT

There are two USA zoos that are on "baby watch" for their pandas. Both the Atlanta zoo and the national zoo in Washington DC. Here are links to their sites:

DC - http://nationalzoo.si.edu/Animals/GiantPandas/default.cfm?cam=LP2

Atlanta - http://www.zooatlanta.org/animals_panda_cam.php4...

Well, as if I didn't have enough on my platter (trying to get rid of extraneous junk for anticipated relocating, adjusting to a new work schedule, cleaning, etc) - I couldn't go on another minute without taking on some home improvement tasks. So, I am redoing my kitchen - to the best of my ability. It has taken awhile to get ready to do it - but I am removing cabinet doors and drawers, removing the hardware from them, sanding them, and preparing to paint the doors and drawers and...

Crazy weather, no power

feeds@yuku.com (IceSkate98) — Sun, 03 Aug 2008 19:24:36 GMT

Rita, just checking in. I've been watching the weather alerts in our area. Hope your area is okay at this time. Around 3:30 p.m, the power went out and it was 105 degrees here. The power just came back on in my neighborhood about 30 minutes ago. I called our power company around 4 p.m., and that's when I found out around 30,000 people in northern La. had been without power today. It was because of the heat and the weather. Transformers had blown and dead tree limbs had broken onto...

"When I say I'm broke ... I'm broke!"

feeds@yuku.com (IceSkate98) — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 21:17:19 GMT

A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day,
only to be confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying
a vacuum cleaner.
'Good morning,' said the young man. 'If I could
take a couple of minutes of your time, I would like to
demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum
cleaners.' 'Go away!' said the old lady.
'I'm broke and haven't got any money!'...

Hello from a stranger

feeds@yuku.com (tvcats) — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 12:52:27 GMT

Hi guys!

I just wanted to let you know that I am not really missing in action. I am here, but I am busier than a 3 legged road lizard. Work is outrageous. I am amazed by how much busier I am on my new schedule. I do like the new schedule, even though I have to work the darned Trust Fund every Monday. Anyway, that only leaves me 30 hours a week to do my own job. So, you can see what a pinch that puts me in.
