Creepy.


Yes it is. Having to run through the forums naked was my punishment for not getting the 1,000,000 post.

I really thought it would be in the LPTPW thread. It happened right around the time I was getting on my computer that morning, but I decided not to try for it.


You should have tried for it.

This was/is a busy week for me. Haven't had much time to look at the forums.

Unless there was a battle of spam he wouldn't have made it.

LOL

Well, whether I could have hit it or not, I just wasn't interested. I knew it was coming, but if someone gets a thrill from hitting a particular number, I thought I shouldn't try and spoil that person's fun.


That's damn nice of you Qui-Gon.

I on the other hand would have snatched it if given the chance..

Good morning!

20,000 RAC another new record.

Your power company appreciates your business.


They better appreciate it. I could turn off my main breaker and the power surge would destroy all the transformers for a mile. :)

I gotta install my XTB-IIR x10 repeater tomorrow......but I'm gonna do it hot.
Easy enough, I just pull the 2 pole 30 amp breaker that it is going to connect to, so I can do it safely.

Quick google search.. It's some kind of signal booster/controller? What are you using it for?

Thank you Byron. I've never met an unpleasant Canadian, but especially nice are those from Vancouver. I hope to get back to BC soon.

Just dropping by to see how everyone is. Hope everyone is well. Hi Qui-Gon, Sciurus Vulgaris, Mark, Misfit, and whoever else happens to drop in. Well, we had some awesome weather, mid to upper 80F's here, gonna drop a bit this week though, with rain forecast for Friday. But, when my weekend rolls around, it'll be nice again. :-)

My Seely Posterpedic computer chair is finally wearing out. It's lumbar support feels more like a lumbar killer. After several years the padding is finally going.

This will be my new one...

A leather nascar version. Even though I don't watch nascar it was the best bang for the buck. ($35 off cuz I'm internet coupon savvy!)

People have been saying for years that the reason PC's have so many hacks is that Apple/Mac had such a small marketshare, it wasn't worth the hacker's effort. Now this isn't a hack (it was reported by a "web security group"), but security companies are starting to look more closely at popular iProducts and they are finding postential security loopholes there as well. If Apple/Mac platforms get too popular, we'll see the same interest in virus, spyware and other security issues by hackers who currently focus mostly on the PC platform.

The two differences I don't like. The seat back isn't as high as my old one (of which it was too easy to fall asleep in); and the seat is attached to the back, so when the back tilts so does the seat. Old chair they were separate. Other than that this one is a winner.

I have been having a nice three-day weekend as Friday was Kamehameha Day. The Monday after always seems harder since the stuff that piles up over the three days still needs to be done.

I have 3 day weekends every week. I stopped signing up for overtime on my days off, would rather spend it with my family than at work. LOL Glad you had a great weekend. I got a 3 day work week coming up, then I'm off from the 19th thru the 29th.

The pictures I saw showed people just laughing it up after he tremor. I didn't give it a second thought after that, and Californians apparently jaded by so many quakes, didn't seem to either.
