Afternoon.

Back from church. Thought about weedin' but it's just too dang hot and muggy. If I can put it off long enough, I can just mow 'em. ;-)

Treerat varmints ate thru muh woodpecker feeder (muh birthday present). I'm thinkin' of takin' it back to the store 'cause they said "you can lock the top (which I did) and the squirrels won't get to it."

Cleaning up the computer and workin' on pool board files.

Fer the geeks amongst us...Corin's daily question. Since it's Sunday, you can answer one and get another one free.

I'm getting a "cannot find file" every time I open Windows. Just me. Says "wtKernal" can't be found. I Googled it and it said it was probably from a downloaded game (which I presume I've deleted). Any thoughts on how best to get rid of it?

And, RollerCoaster Tycoon2 keeps cuttin' out on me. Doesn't shut down, but the monitor will blink and the window will be minimized. I can go right back to it.

I thought yesterday it might have been the modem trying to get back online (when the Internet was out), but it's continued to happen and Jr. says it's happened to him for quite a while. Thoughts?

Check and see if the downloaded and deleted game shows up on the Add/Remove Programs list. Sometimes an incomplete uninstall can lead to problems. It probably won't, but it's worth a shot.


If you've still got the cd for RollerCoaster Tycoon, I would try uninstalling and reinstalling that too, just in case something's a little messed up with the game itself rather than a conflict.

Afternoon.

It's muggy and cloudy here....when are we supposed to get that sunshine they keep promising?

I'm watching "Ask This Old House" trying to get inspired. It's not working. *yawn*

Consider telling the neighbors, "those aren't weeds, I'm 'naturalizing' my landscaping efforts". Worth a try and certainly less labor intensive.
