G'd evening, all!

I got my new computer. It's very sleek, but WinXP is a little patronizing. Still, I'm happy.

Getting ready for my lovely business trip to Detroit...

Congrats on the new computer! What features does it have?

Have fun in Detroit--hope you're going to a relatively safe part of town!

Evening All:

JenB; think of it as adventure, and a couple more states visited. Since I didn't understand any of your computer stuff, if you like it, it must be a good one.

Hair; great picture of the ent; glad your trees are staying put and not wandering about.

Ramius; cool wheel barrow but I wouldn't care to push it too far if'n it was loaded with rocks.

OT; those sausage balls were a hit when I took 'em in to our Section's Friday breakfast/staff meeting.

g'nad; socialistic studies, probably never been taught quite the way you teach it either.

Congrats! I think you'll like XP once you get used to it, though it can be a bit TOO secure and such. And I usually immediately take off the bubbly look on the menus and dialog boxes.

Watched more Scrapped Princess tonight. It's...convoluted. But then, that's pretty par for the course where anime is concerned. I'm up to the episode where the OTHER "Scrapped Princess" is introduced. Things are getting odder by the second.
