Is something weird going on here at FR? Or is it my gas-powered obsolete PC?

Commodore +4, from about 1985.

My dad had one of those and we loved playing with various things on it.

Model II? First desktop I ever used. It had two 8" platter-sized floppy drives and whopping 64K of memory, IIRC.

Yep. I used one of those in my first office job. Of course, we called 'em "Trash 80s" but they got the job done.

Did you hear?

Lindsey Vonn had her gold medal stripped.

They said Barak Obama was going downhill much faster.

7 years ago. And in the same period of time I have gone up in life a loo-ooong way.

Well, I would still give up the internet if I.E. was the only browser on the market. It’s that bad. I can’t tell you how much using it cost me in the past.

[Vanity sub-thread] The only problem with FR these past two days was, I hadn’t signed on. /rimshot

By the way, has anyone heard about the joke about the guy that walked into the bar and the bartender was a robot?

Are there flying saucers in the area?
