MEET MY SPELLCHECKER

July 31st, 2004

p and b

Meet my spellchecker. On the left is Pat M with her husband Brian. They moved out to the Left Coast a few years ago and we don’t keep in touch that much but every once and a while Pat logs in and corrects my spelling.

Love you and miss you. Keep up the good work.

Personal note:

I’m mainly playing at Peel Village these days. Met up with a few guys a few years ago and we get out every weekend dark and early. I break 95 semi-consistenly (sp?) and still play a lot of corporate golf as well.

Jan is doing well and we still spend far too much time at Jake’s but it’s like a second home.

Drop us a line at eyeno1 (at) gmail dot com (figure it out, got to keep the spammers off my trail) That’s eyeno and the number one. When you coming out again?

HOW ABOUT A LEOPARD SKIN HAT AND A THEATRE FACT?

July 31st, 2004

Some guy or girl working as an assistant gets stuck with selling baby clothes on eBay for the boss’s wife. Is this person gonna take this quietly? Hell no.

Auction ends in a few days so hurry on over and place a bid.

Since the seller has a BA in theatre arts, he or she is graciously including an interesting fact for every item posted.

What are the odds that a better job is in the offing?

IN HIS OWN WORDS

July 31st, 2004

Bush’s own words from his 2003 State Of The Nation speech juxtaposed with images that give them new meaning.

A blatant pro Kerry production but interesting all the same.

NOT A GREAT START

July 31st, 2004

No golf this morning.

Raining so hard that I expected to see the animals lining up 2 by 2.

Oh well, guess I’ll catch up on a few chores before the sun shows up and the temperature skyrockets like they’ve been promising.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

July 31st, 2004

Elvis Presley


“I don’t know anything about music. In my line you don’t have to.”

That explains a whole lot.

THIN SKIN

July 30th, 2004

Seems the Italian ambassador got upset with this poster trying to convince people not to bring strong smelling foods in to the London Underground. It’s since been pulled.

I TAKE MINE NEAT

July 30th, 2004

In the news:

“Why don’t they get new jobs if they’re unhappy — or go on Prozac?” said Susan Sheybani, an assistant to Bush campaign spokesman Terry Holt.

The comment was apparently directed to a colleague who was transferring a phone call from a reporter asking about job quality, and who overheard the remark.

Adam Felber over at Fanatical Apathy has a great take on this item that in itself would have been funny if it wasn’t such a scary vision into the thinking in the Bush camp.

KERRY AND THE DOVE

July 30th, 2004

Caught a little bit of Kerry’s acceptance speech last night and this morning. The image of him saluting is everywhere in the papers today. Cox and Forkum who are as right wing as they come have a little fun with the Democrats with this cartoon.

Love the dove’s expression.

HAPPY SYSADMIN DAY!

July 30th, 2004

Today, July 30, is the 5th annual System Administrators Day. Time to recognize those people who keep things like the intraweb humming.

I’m blessed to have a couple of great ones working for me. Take a bow Benny, Andrew and Mark.

The official page for Sysadmin day is here.

Buy ‘em a box of Krispy Kremes or a couple of cans of Red Bull.
