Linux And Windows

July 31st, 2009

I have been sitting here trying to think of what I did today.  I did go to the bank to make a deposit and then dropped off a check for the plumber.  After that I went to Wal-Mart to pick up some Aleve since the doctor told me Monday that it was probably the best [...]

Still Raining

July 30th, 2009

I awoke early this morning to thunder, lightning, and more rain.  The sunshine and the rain have been playing tag all day.   Of course I am not complaining for we really do need the rain, especially the farmers.  However, for me the rain just makes the grass on my lawn grow faster and then the [...]

Rain And More Rain

July 29th, 2009

Today has definitely been a rainy one.  Right now a thunderstorm is moving out.  The satellite Internet has gone off several times today so I just gave up on trying to post books and instead of posting books, I read one.  Rainy days are great days for reading. I was looking at Scott’s photos on [...]

Life Back To Normal

July 28th, 2009

I had my alarm set for seven this morning and when it went off I called the plumber again.  About thirty minutes later he called me and said he would be there around eleven since he had a doctor’s appointment in Ruston at nine.  Just a couple of minutes before ten the phone rang again [...]

Scott Home In Fort Worth

July 27th, 2009

Scott is finally back home in Fort Worth.  Going by the time on his post on Twitter, I don’t think they landed at DFW until about six, which was an hour later than he had mentioned last night when I talked with him.  When he posted to Twitter they were waiting on baggage and were [...]

Scott Back In The USA

July 26th, 2009

A few minutes ago I received a phone call from Scott.  He and the group are at LAX and will be there until midnight when their flight leaves and they will get to Dallas about five tomorrow morning.  That is going to be one tired group.  I asked if he was going to bed when [...]

Scott Leaving Cambodia Tomorrow

July 25th, 2009

Scott’s time in Cambodia is almost over.  He posted today that everyone was packing and that they would get one more breakfast at the coffee shop and then would fly out at noon tomorrow.  The group also went back to the market and a few got massages while the rest went for ice cream.  Bet [...]

Friday

July 24th, 2009

Yesterday Scott said in a post that Linux is in the drinking water business in Cambodia.  I am wondering if there is a company named Linux or if the water business is somehow connected to the Linux operating system for computers, or at least to people that use the Linux system.  I instantly thought of [...]

News From Cambodia

July 23rd, 2009

All the photos are cropped and resized and now I just have to post them to the website along with a description.  The descriptions are what take me so long but I have decided that I am going to shorten them.  I wonder if people even read the description for a book anyway.  I know [...]

My Secondborn Is Twenty-Eight Today

July 22nd, 2009

Today, July 22, was Brian’s birthday and Christy prepared a delicious dinner.  Brian loves chicken with fettuccine Alfredo, however, he prefers angel hair spaghetti so that is what she prepared.  It is all pasta to me and I really do not see any difference in taste.  Normally when Brian wants cake he wants chocolate cake [...]
