Yesterday afternoon, I received, not one, not two, but three differnt e-mails from a "Major Presidential Campaign" warning me that if I didn't contribute money before midnight, last night; we would face the end of the world as we know it.

I am really getting sick of all this political garbage and mudslinging!

[Laura]

Do what I do, TCB -- I ignore it all until I am in the voting booth. I am one of the ones who should not be allowed to vote. But my vote counts just as much as someone who researches.

Denial -- it's a wonderful thing.

[Laura]

Bulletins and newsletters printed. Now I would like to go back to bed. But I can't.

I wish I could ignore it, Laura.  I guess I am just too damn snoopy.  I always have to open the e-mail and see if they wrote anything  new.

After work last night, I dropped by my sister's house (I sound like DR GEORGE) to visit a wedding shower for my nephew and his bride-to-be.

It was most enjoyable.  I will be officiating at their ceremony on Friday, August 10th - so they are coming by this afternoon for THE TALK.....and I don't mean the television show.

Will you warn them about pre-marital sex?

That horse has left the barn.

DR ELMORE - looking at some of the manuals for portable air conditioners online - it IS recommended that they be plugged directly into the wall and not into power strip or extension cord.

Thank you, DR JRand61. Electricity has never been one of the areas of home repair I am remotely good at! I'm assuming it can go into the socket where the dead air conditioner is currently plugged. And that reminds me I need to find an adaptor to take with my Macbook to Dublin. Where oh where?

Oh, I don't get any emails. I would never give a political campaign my email address.

Too late to zip the barn door?

You are very lucky.

Reinstalled the latest printer drivers, but didn't fix a damned thing.  Something has gotten hosed as far as the computer seeing the network printer via Ethernet, and I've troubleshooted (troubleshot?) up the kazoo.  Fortunately, everything works fine via USB.  I just won't be able to print via the network, by Ethernet or wireless.

Today should be Sherlock's 6th birthday.  In his honor we are going to walk part of the hiking trails.

Maybe later today I will try to figure out DR George's instruction on sharing photos.

It's Sunday!  A day to do nothing-- although I do have to go to my ex-mother-in-law's house and visit for a bit.

 My SPAM filter works on most of the garbage e-mails, so I am spared the sordid details.  I'm always amazed at the sheer volume -- and variety-- of them  when I go to dlete them.

If you don't have the time DR JANE - send them to me, and I will post them for you.

Some air conditioner plugs are not standard, so unplug the dead one and give it a look....of course if it is a regular outlet - you are in fat city.....air conditioner plug wise, that is.

[Jrand73]

You just need an adapter NOT a converter for your laptop....or so it seems.

I'm up after a lovely nine and a half hours of sleep.  I'll still have time to jog, I think, before Mr. Barry Pearl picks me up.

[John G.]

I'm still listening to Bach Motets, but I have read the FOLLIES notes, BK, and they are really wonderful. The first production is indelible, and your notes capture so much of the reasons why it is so.

The AC at Toyland is wonderful. I want to move in and not leave.

I've been doing some coparative ashopping on line, and I think the 9000BTU Frigidaire is the one to purchase; it's $379 at Best Buy, so I may have to go back there and deal with those fools again this morning when I leave here.

Call them first and see if you can get your questions answered over the phone.

[bk]

How can anyone listen to Bach Motets before Follies?  Priorities, dear boy, priorities.

[Jane]

From DR John G:

Jane, I am addicted to "The Book Thief." I only have less than three discs left and just want to drive so I can listen to the rest of it.

 

[Jane]

From DR elmore:

The AC is part of my apartment; it's built into the wall.

Too bad if your rent goes up so you can have air.  Doubly bad if you pay to replace it and your rent increases. 

VIBES YOU GET AC AND YOUR RENT STAYS THE SAME!!!!

Helper is late and if she's not here soon, I won't be able to jog.

CONTINUED HEALING VIBES FOR DR CILLA!

DR George, sorry about the latest on your Playhouse director.

I did not get an email about Mole Removal....

I've never had one of those either but I had an email from Walmart today offering savings on skin care products, which is close. I don't know why I get emails from Walmart though. I've never shopped there and the nearest store is about 3,000 miles away.

[Jrand73]

Yes indeed it has been citified, modernized, and had its ho-rizons broadened.
