Years ago (when I was learning Windows 3.5) somebody told me that 'computers don't lie',I about fell out of my chair when I heard that. Computers belive what you tell them, so if you lie to one about a fact, it will think its the truth. Be very careful what you tell a computer, it is hard to change their mind about something.

Mine hasn't lied to me yet... only crashed, died, given me about 10,000 compilation errors and about 50 times as many parse errors...

Okay so maybe I'm not such a good programmer...

Nevertheless, your advice has been duly noted, scottcaddy

Eggsie were you saying you had computer trouble lately. Could your son do a remote from where he is at? My son does that for me(although he is plenty tired of me needing help). I had to blab about that and then my sister started nagging him to do it for her. He is not pleased with me. I wanted to get him a t-shirt that said 'NO I WON'T FIX YOUR COMPUTER!"

I love it when my son does the remote, I just sit there and can see the mouse running back and forth and clicking things. It' always makes me laugh, it is like smoke & mirrors. I'm giggling and he gets madder by the moment. He always starts by saying "WHAT did you do to it this time!" Maybe it's when I should remind him of how many diaper changes I had to do.

I just love the mother-son connection.

Yes, Scott. Snowing in the High Country which translates to 10,000-10,500 and up. We are getting either snow that melts off, snow showers or rain here in the 9,000 ft range. My winter snow glaciers are about gone and some of our aspens are getting leaves. The ones out back are still just budding. I did harvest some greens from my garden though, strawberry blight. It is a gourmet green that grows wild around here and it is soooo very tasty!
Graduation at 11 AM. I have to teach my son how to iron his robes here in a bit. Fixed the boat motor vicariously through son #2 yesterday in the rain. Got two cords of firewood to split for people that have run out. Granddaughter's B-Day party is tomorrow and picking up the food for that. I guess I had better quit chit chatting and get a move on....

Lost my first bird. Brown Betty, an amuricana, gotten by a raptor.

Freaking Hawks.



Guess they're not big enough to free range yet.

 

[drumstick diva]

Aw so sorry Prostar

I don't think they are ever big enough to face predators.

 

[prostar]

No...but I had hoped big enough that Hawks would leave them alone.

 

[drumstick diva]

I think chickens deserve the right to bear arms - big ones.

 

[prostar]

Agreed. Should have left the mutt out with them...but wasn't thinking and hubs released them.

Peach is only a danger to the chickens poop...but may have deterred a hawk? Unsure.

 

[drumstick diva]

and chickens are usually only a danger to dog poo - ick - but it works for both of them.
