That one passes me by.
I know less than the average four year old about computers. But while I cannot find a listing for Java, I do have some evidence it still is in my desktop, W 7. I don't want to buy any of the forty or fifty programs that assure me they will find and delete Java. Suggestions?
I still read all posts. Just mostly stopped posting myownself. But I'm still here. And still a fan of yours. Health is slowly deteriorating But then if I live through June I'll have my 84th, so it is to be expectorated. I still drive and still have no tickets nor accidents. Not too bad.
I'm cheap. I admit it, I am cheap. I see people at superiormarkets buying more bottled water than they can lift.
I'm cheap. I have never bought a bottle of water. And never will. Tap works for me. Do I drink water? Gallons a day. I don't drink any form of alky nor do I drink colas, no Pepsi nor Coke etc. I drink water with ice cubes in it. All from the tap. But I add to my savings accounts every month since I am so cheap.
Good Morning Marilyn and a few others.
I quit smoking way back in the eighties. But for a turkey? I might make an exception.
Mornin' Ma'am
Morning Mythter.
Thank you. I'm smiling, wondering what to do with the next six days?
Morning Marilyn and all. Gave my usual two quarts of blood yesterday morn and I have not one single appt left the rest of the week. How nice. If I could sleep I would consider going to bed now and not getting up til next Monday.
I sleep seldom and poorly.
I'm getting very good at Freecell. Considering turning pro.
I did live in California for over 20 years. Did not vote for her or Governor Bubblebrain. Left Cal. Couldn't stand any more of their idiocy.
I'm 83 and still breathing it. Shall I stop?
You want to just leave them laying there?
By my own choice I have mostly stopped posting. Still read the posts which are given. And AL? Wowser! You have become one of my newest heroes. Keep at it, you are doing simply great.
Stock, thank you Sir. It is an important event in my lifetime and I felt all Conservatives and Patriots should know the facts. We swore an oath long ago to defend the Constitution with our lives if necessary. That Constitution is the one thing that makes America great.
When entering the armed services of the U S an oath is required. Here is a quote from the Internet:
Text of the Oath
"I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.[1]
The oath is for an indeterminate period; no duration is specifically defined."
That is clear enough and very simple. I took that oath long ago but as it says it is for an indeterminate period. No one has relieved me of my freely given oath to defend the Constitution, and no one can or ever will. I did not give the oath to the American people. Nor to the Government. Nor to the President. Or to a political party. The oath is about the Constitution, TO the Constitution. I committed to defend it with my life if necessary. My oath will live as long as I do.
If you have not served then you probably never gave such an oath. Nothing stopping you from giving the oath from your heart. Defend The Constitution. It is what makes America the great nation it is.
Attempted casino robbery on the Las Vegas strip today. Swat team is there, huge area closed down. At least one dead. Two local TV stations have been on the scene for hours. Still are. It isn't cleared yet.
I don't know anything about prizes but last week Dan told me privately that he is tired, and shutting down. No plans to continue. I will miss him greatly.
considering not posting at all in March to make up for the problems I've caused.
My interest in Chelsea is slightly less than my interest in a two week old loaf of white bread. Almost, but nevertheless less.
Arrow, I have followed mr40 since she started here. There is simply no one quite like her. She digs. She finds. She posts. I couldn't do it. Few could. But we are blessed to have her.
TTT, I was one pack a day man, started late and once quit for five years. Finally simply decided to stop. Woke up one morning and told my wife (she's been gone over twenty years) that I quit. She said: you won't. I said: I just did. And never had another and never missed smoking. Can be done.
And I am by nature cheap. I save money every month. Rather save it than spend it. So I do.
Marilyn, I never consciously try to be different. I don't think or act in those terms. I just do my thing but it doesn't turn out to be the common thing. But changing you from a woman? I'd die first.
Stock, I am not offended. I was harmless in 1961 also. But never saw the program. And lots of others.
Stock, my friend: you would be astonished at the TV and movies I have never seen, the rock 'n roll I never heard. I have never been inside a Starbucks. Or a Duncan Donuts. Born and raised in the lower class midwest so I have never tasted lobster. Never have. Never seen an MJ cigarette even though when I got out of the Army I went to college and graduated. Never seen a doob. Never smoked one. Quit cigs about 1988. Don't drink alky in any form. I don't even drink colas. None. I might well be from another planet. Mr Ed? Don't know him. Something to do with a horse I imagine. Never listened to The Beatles, could not name a single song of theirs. Live in Las Vegas but the ONLY time since I moved here that I was in a casino was when my next door neighbor phoned me drunk from a casino and asked me to come drive him home, he was too drunk. I jumped out of airplanes. How many people you know did that? I have a pilot's license but cannot pass the physical now. I . . . am . . . different. I don't try to be, I just am. Paul
I guess that Wilbur is as good a name for a horse as any.
Be kind to our fine feathered friends
for a duck may be somebody's mother
Salty, thank you. Deserts can be quite beautiful. Sometimes.
If I had a horse I would give it a name. That costs nothing.
Foglberg Longer
Nat 'King' Cole singing That's All
Salty, I live in the desert.
Stock, I'm lost. Everyone tells me I hafta go W 10. And I probably should. And I might. But that first step is a long one. Have not made it yet.
Gary, several people gave me the program but I have to mostly credit Ks, who sent me to the correct place and gave me step by step. And it worked. I have no need usually for formal letters but a lady friend wanted me to write one for her. This morn I did. Give it to her Monday, see if I did what she wants. If not she will direct me to the right words, and I will do it over. Good lady and I won't mind. We shall see.
Meanwhile, I have to make the decision about W10. I don't want to. But maybe I simply have to. Got my desktop overhauled cheaply and exactly what I gave the repairman in writing that I wanted done. Couldn't be much better. But it still doesn't like downloads. (sigh)
Marilyn, I plead guilty. And it is even worse: my barber is a gorgeous brunette in her forties. And she tells every male she meets that she loves her husband and does not fool around. Well . . . I don't love her husband but I also don't fool around. But I do accept hugs if freely given. My dentist? Older married lady. But I think the most competent dentist I have ever had. She is quick . . . and gentle. Can't ask for more.
Ms. Ing? Ks rocks every day. Always. As to my computer? Arrow swears I need to dump it entirely and start over with Windows 10. And of course he is right. I should. But I am cowardly when facing W 10. And I could buy a new desktop in 10 but would have no idea how to move all my junk from this desktop to that one. (sigh)
Standing ovulation from me to Ks. Once again she comes to the rescue.
Got me to the right (write?) place and the letter is written. My extremely high opinion of her all these years? Would be higher if that was possible. Kudos Ks.
Marilyn, good morning. Speaking of serious fun? I have a one o'clock appt at my lady dentists. She is the best I ever had. No lunch, get it done.
