There was no better feeling in the world than watching those big burly linemen picking up a cup of my coffee as they finished up. I nearly cried.

Yer a sweetie, 2J. I KNOW they appreciated your kindness!

And just for grins another co-worker brought in his insufferable Jingle-Fricking-Bell-Croaking-Frog...

Someone needs to 'disappear' that thing.

I happy!! I fixed the printer. I had to unwind the cat hair that had afixed itself around the rollers, liberally oil said roller junctions with sewing machine oil, ungunk the platforms where the cartridges sit(and leaked), buy new cartridges, but now we’re good to go.

Will make writing my Christmas letters (individual, not the dreaded Holiday letter) easier. LSA

Heh...I think I’ve told this story here before, but anyway...

My boss at the college worked on a computer for a friend once...it had started acting strange, lots of sporadic problems. They ruled out software causes. My boss opened the case, and the ENTIRE INTERIOR was so packed full of cat hair that you could see the shape of the case - basically there was a big hairball in the shape of the case interior inside the thing.

As it turns out, he has a hugh cat who liked to sleep on top of the computer with his big old fluffy tail hanging down in back by the fan. Oops!

Um, would you send us about 40 degrees? That would get you down to a comfortable 82 degrees, and we could us the extra degrees to melt the ice in the back yard.

We’ve got a snow advisory going when it’s 122 degrees out. Al Gore must be in town.

Yes, it was cat hair. (Drumming fingers) I’m waiting for the vet to call; the Di Gu Pi San powder she sent home for Gyspy has caused gastric distress. I either need to lower her dose, get a anti-diarrheal, or change magic powders.
