Diagnostics says a faulty fan - I expect it's clogged by Panhandle dust and Beej hair. I might be offline f/ a few days, so if I haven't posted here or to Facebook, that's the likely problem. I'll have to go get a can of compressed air...and maybe a short-haired cat.
Love to all, thanks f/ checking in.
(am glad I finally got online - got up to check on B and came back to find this computer seemingly off, screen dark, but still green light on and when I listened closely, a strange hum. I got it running using the Andy Griffith method in "No Time For Sergeants". I'd hate to have to buy a new computer!)

PC Problems - Again

You Are a Blue Martini |
 You may have had a difficult time earlier in life. You are highly sensitive and a little cautious. You are a reserved and careful person, but you don't let that stop you from doing your thing. Old fashioned and conservative, you carry yourself with dignity. You don't embarrass yourself. You are attracted to powerful people who have a good deal of influence. You wouldn't mind some of that rubbing off on you. |

Ahoy, There Be Pirates!
Arrr!
Just checked my counter stats and saw this for the latest visitor:
Note the date of the last visit - wonder if Columbus visited this blog then, too?
(and no, this isn't an April Fools joke - not by me, anyway. Sure wish I knew how they did that.)
This Gmail News Will Move You
Introducing Gmail Motion - Official Gmail Blog
Gmail comes out with yet another great feature! Gmail Motion allows you to control Gmail — composing and replying to messages — using your body.
Actually, they've done yet another great April Fools spoof and I'm linking to it to pad my blog counter stats.
That's a little joke I like to play - convincing myself that I could get that much traffic on a daily basis and not just one day a year. Still, it would be nice to be able to use your body to read your emails....instead of getting spam that tells you how to enlarge a certain body part.
Here's a screenshot of this last year's counter stats. Note the huge spike (at the left of the graphic) that was last year's traffic after I linked to the Gmail blog.
It's probably a good thing I don't get that sort of traffic every day; if I did, then I'd put up some revenue generating ads...and that would drive away any regular visits I have. Even me.

CAGW Commercial
The same one which is playing on TV now. Very scary, but to be honest, I saw this coming years ago. We can either limit our purchases of Chinese products, put a tariff on those coming into this country and causing our own industries to fade away and/or punish them for their theft of intellectual property.
Or, learn to speak Chinese.
We are giving them the money of which to buy the rope that will hang us.
Alton Brown's Nose
Celebrity chef Alton Brown meets fans at the 2nd annual gumbo cook-off on Dauphin Island
Naw, that's not really his nose, but is a screenshot of a video from a link I followed on "Alton Brown for President" on Facebook. I just thought it really funny...and bet he would, too. Here's the video link:
