I need my daily entertainment!

I've been up all night continuing to get the replacement for my crashed laptop working, so shuddup and quit making noise out there. Sheesh!

~8 months ago one of our supervisors dropped a DuelAdapter card (Express Card to PCMCIA/Cardbus 32 adapter) on my desk, thinking I my use it for the National Instruments fieldbus card in my new laptop at work. I don't, I do my fieldbus stuff on a completely separate machine, but that card sure works well with the GC89 wireless modem card at home in my new Moooo machine!!!!!!!!! Guess I'll have to buy a replacement for work.

Did you sign up for the CO DO IV yet, rtarbuck?

No on the CO Do. But I'm still working on it. I have a CO bump voucher to burn so that may be a way to use it. Got to get thru the SIN-Do first. Then we'll go from there.

Mike, how come you say that the CO DO is Intravenous, when it's DL that you consider to be bloodsuckers?

The CO DO IV is just what I need to replace the precious bodily fluids that Delta has sapped and impurified.

I thought you didn't quite have the stomach for the French side of my family? I can arrange another date for you with one of them if you so desire.

We're at the Hampton Inn, 1 block from the TreeTree. Needed to switch to a Hilton property for a Gold status promo, room block at TreeTree was sold out, & (very important to me ) there is free brekkie at the Hampton Inn.

There is less lead in Detroit due to the big 3 extended shut down throughout January. Come on over.

Lead?

As in airborne pollution or the amount of bullets flying all over the place?

Ugh...

...I remember having to use the GPIB interface connectors and NB Handler Init software as well as a special National Instruments internal NuBus computer card for external peripherals that used the GPIB interface instead of SCSI back in the late 1980s.

That was soooo much fun...
