TECH HARDWARE: Strange event

Friday, May 30, 2008

This morning luggable was rebooted.

No reason apparent to me.

Did Microsoft push one of their mandatory take fixes? Was it related to Comcast’s problems yesterday? Have I been hacked?

Who knows?

Argh!

You cannot send e-mail messages from Word, PowerPoint, and Excel
Explains that the Send To command on the File menu and the SendMail method in VBA may not work when you use Word, PowerPoint, or Excel. Includes a workaround where you can use Outlook or Outlook Express to send e-mail messages.

***End Quote***

Argh!

I am leaving Microsoft. But before I go, I have my latest novel at chapter 56 of 100. Can’t leave before that’s done.

(I don’t think!?!)

Anyway, I email my doc after every major session. Now it’s hung up. I can’t email it and can’t get away from the screen to email it.

Argh!

I get ‘unspecified error’ and I can’t find anything online about getting out of it.

Argh!

RANT: ‘if voting made any difference it would be illegal.’

Thursday, May 29, 2008

http://channel-surfing.blogspot.com/2008/05/distracted-by-electoral-spectacle.html

*** begin quote ***

In an interview with Chris Hedges in The Nation, he says that he is not preoccupied by the election, as so many on the left have been, quoting his brother, the late Father Philip Berrigan, “who said that ‘if voting made any difference it would be illegal.'”

*** end quote ***

True, true, true!

OK, you go find an anti-war candidate for vote for? The only one Ron Paul was marginalized out of the race.

And, you think there’s a difference?

Sheeple!

McBookaire: Field experiment with McBa

Tuesday, May 27, 2008

I ordered a ‘man bag’ for McBa. (Mac Book Air … I’m always accused of using acronyms) I took the 35$ one that looked like it would suffice. Some of them are price in the hundreds. Guess they think if you spring for a McBa, then you’ll spend any amount for anything. Maybe Martha; not me. The dumb thing didn’t come with a shoulder strap so I borrowed one. I’ll gripe about that vendor when I get around to it.

Any way I took McBa out in its ‘man bag’ and it worked perfectly. Fired up the vwubbie (Verizon Wireless Broad Band usb modem). And everything worked fine.

There was a wifi signal but I couldn’t connect. Argh!

McBa ran for more than 2 hours on the battery driving vwubbie.

I as careful to shut down; not just close the lid. Just closing the lid drains the battery in 12 hours.

So far, I’m pleased.

RANT: the ONLY chance we have to get away from the ‘gooferment education’ paradigm is ‘home schooling’

Subway Bans Homeschooled Kids from Essay Contest
By Ned Barnett

*** begin quote ***

Subway — the multi-national fast-food sub-shop giant — has shot themselves in the foot. Again. The goal of their latest promotion was to win the loyalty of parents of grade school-aged kids — to increase market share, revenue and profits. It was supposed to be a simple exercise in business marketing and promotion.

*** end quote ***

No Subway for me.

As a nation, the ONLY chance we have to get away from the ‘gooferment education’ paradigm is ‘home schooling’. Every time they embarrass and show up the teacher’s union driven gooferment system for the high-priced under-performing dud it is; that’s one more possible pin tin the balloon.

We can only hope to escape this institutionalize stupidity.

The Last Doughboy
World War I veteran Frank Buckles, 107, in March.
By George F. Will
Sunday, May 25, 2008; Page B07

***Begin Quote***

CHARLES TOWN, W.Va. — Numbers come precisely from the agile mind and nimble tongue of Frank Buckles, who seems bemused to say that 4,734,991 Americans served in the military during America’s involvement in the First World War and that 4,734,990 are gone. He is feeling fine, thank you for asking.

***End Quote***

Amazing at 107!
