Another good man gone……..

Rest in peace. May God grant you and your family comfort and peace.   How many other comedians are a footnote in Supreme Court history? Spike sums his life up well: One of the more original and influential stand-up comedians, best selling author and an okay actor. 7 Words You

Here is a question.

Dear Mr Gates…….

If you wonder why the Apple computer company survives-well go back and look what your minions have been doing while you and Melinda were out saving the world. (How’s that going by the way?-Judging by the world these days, I’d say not so well.) Consider what it takes to install

New computer bleg.

No post tonight. The computer fairy came today and left me a new desktop! Too busy setting it up and partioning it so the S.O. has her side and I have mine. So she has her programs and I have my porn programs. My desktop was over 6 years old
