yup - exactly. She is just getting her license. Very new driver. While she is a cautious driver, I'd rather not have her head exposed until she is more comfortable and has more experience.

She is pretty level headed. However, not all of her friends are. peer pressure is a Katie Kaboom at that age.

Need to come up with something to do. Movie, perhaps.

Edit: Yep, movie. Dougall bought one just now. Yay!

Johnny English Reborn.

I've been released from the hospital. Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes. I'm going to bed.

So glad you're doing well.

How do I find out what version of Windows I have and whether it's a 32 bit or a 64 bit?

Damn HP is telling me something like my printer can be taken over by zombies if I don't download a firmware update to allow disabling RFU and then another update for code signing. What's an RFU? I just know this is going to have a really bad ending.

i don't have win7 in front of me, but on xp you can go to control panel (in classic view), system, look under "general". win 7 may have something similar.

I'm very familiar with the "FU" part :/

It seems to have worked. Actually, I think I did everything twice. Just didn't know when it stopped.

Color me surprised.

Glad to hear it.

It will be really interesting to see how Johnny Depp plays Tonto.

Evening all. Long Tuesday. State 4H agency want to do a robotics thing for National Robotics Week. Orc and I said we could help, found out that you can do stuff through the school too, not just 4H.

Went to bed with a migraine last night, marginally feeling better today.

ThunderThighs wrote:Especially since he's a LEADING actor but Tonto is a secondary role in the stories.

From what I've read, though, Tonto's kind of the main character. It starts with him talking about how they met up and got to know one another and what they did.

Wonder where d'name is tonight.

Night all. Tomorrow.

Maybe she was hiding in her pj's because the basement crew was there or maybe she took a walk and Rusty lost her.

Joyner, take care and safe ride home.

Good morning Rain and all who follow.

Good morning all

Good morning. Were your ears ringing? Just thought to myself that since I have some time I was going to go back and look for the baby photo I missed.

How's the precious one doing?

Edit: Oops, I just read you didn't post but pm'd. If you are so inclined may I take a peek too?

No, we don't talk to Amy anymore.

I do remember the Portman story and how she wasn't nice, but who is Amy?

Guess I'm the only one that doesn't remember since no one asked.

G'day, mates!

Good morning everybody! Heading back to NC as soon as the traffic slows down.

No ill effects from surgery except for a sore throat and that is little enough to complain about.

edit: and the tape, I hate the tape.

Sounds like everything went very well!!


(Hint: don't lick the tape!)

Morning. Cloudy, supposed to snow.

Joyner, glad you made it home and all is well. Tape is temporary.

I don't believe they are quite home yet.

Wups. Well, glad she's been released and didn't have to spend the night in the hospital.

Snowing now.

How much are they predicting?

AZGman wrote:How much are they predicting?

Rain/freezing rain/sleet/snow mix, 1-2 inches accumulating at home, 1-3 here at work (slightly higher elevation).

Looks like the drive home will be fun.

Glad everything is doing well, Joyner.

And a good morning everyone. Just read a cute description of Angelina's "kickstand" pose. That says it all.

Sunny, warm day here. I have to do a lot of picking up - company coming, and I have been a bit of a slob the past week or so.

Good morning. Must have had some heavy rain during the night. Supposed to have more today. According to the paper we've had 4.1 inches of snow this year. Yay!

Currently under a tornado advisory.
