You are growing millet and sorghum?
What for?
HEY!
We’re over here!!!
Time to post those keywords, FReeple!!
I’ve been viewing the HP movies this last week, and I’m so excited! “Goblet of Fire” and “Order Of the Phoenix” are due for tomorow. (I really could have used one of them today. It would have made my brain function a little better!)
You should see the Robins on my lawn.
:-D
I miss the robins! When I was growing up, I was always looking for them to visit our yard so that we didn’t have to wait so long for the REAL spring to come.
Howdy all!
Face & TC, hope you feel better.
It.. is.. DONE!

Crud!
Foiled by the dreaded Encryption Key!
Well, for one thing, the bugs don’t seem to like it, so it’s very healthy!
It’s grown, along with some field corn, where bird seed fell in the spring. I didn’t know what all it was until it “stalked,” as it were.
The right side of my head still feels a bit funny, but it should be okay by tomorrow.
I didn’t have pen and paper so I had to put it somewhere. As long as you don’t know what it is for I won’t need to....
PGP whole disk encryption.
If there’s a ctrl keystroke in there, you need to include that as a key press as PGP counts it as a single key press.
HP, do they make movies? I thought they did computers and printers. I wish they still made oscilloscopes.
Oscillococcinum (commonly shortened to Oscillo) is a homeopathic alternative medicine marketed to relieve influenza-like symptoms. It is one of the most popular homeopathic preparations, particularly in France. The name Oscillococcinum is owned by a French company, Boiron, its sole manufacturer. ...

What dose the word Oscillo mean. I know what a oscilloscope is. I know what the suffix scope means.
HP=Harry Potter (to the uninitiated)
Comes from the Latin for "to kiss." HP was always very good at marketing and this was a way to let engineers know that they were going to love this new instrument SO much...
(For some time HP would gold-plate the traces on their circuit boards -- if you took one of their machines apart and saw the circuit boards, you KNEW they were high quality because the traces were gold. /s)
It's really from the Latin oscillare, "to swing"
Way back when, I worked in an electronics assembly plant (Signetics) and was responsible for making sure the gold thingies were attached to the other gold thingies that hooked up to the gold thingies that went into the space ships.
We worked with 24K gold, and spent many a night making sure the “preforms” were attached to the “specs” in the proper manner.
It would seem that instantly cauterizing my cute little fingers was the least I could do...
A really long, hard day today. Wanted to catch up on my e-mail but all I could do was to get through the easy stuff, and a little of the more difficult. Forgot about the two teleconferences today that chipped away at my time.
But afterwards went and joined a "Tea party" nearby, until 6 PM. Saw some old friends there, including a popular local former radio talk-show host.
Anyone notice there is someone named “Dagon of Albion” on MySpace?
I didn’t, but then I’ve not been on MySpace, Facebook or other public social media (except as requested by my employer — don’t ask).
