Report from the swine flu front line: In the event of a real emergency – we would be dead already.
The SkyBar. Carlton came home with a SkyBar the other day. He had no clue that he had gotten a famous old candy bar from the 1940’s and 50’s. Apparently they the NECCO people still make a few Skybars every year and sell them in New England where they are still much loved. (It is called the SkyBar because it was introduced in the 1930’s via a huge skywriting ad campaign.)
I am opposed to the death penalty. But, I am making an exception in John Allen Muhammad’s case.
Just backuped the blog using the new computer. In two weeks we’ll be winging it to Kona – I want to be sure that the Mac can do all the required tasks. I am still ripping movies to take. I found a housing and an abandoned 40 gig drive in my computer junk box – so I made an external drive. I don’t think the drive is very reliable – but I am thinking that it will be good enough to store movies.
In honor of Halloween – I am listening to Bram Stoker’s Dracula. It is remarkably good. More like a “modern” novel than a “victorian” novel.
