Apple II

Here's another computer museum piece - an Apple II, seen at the Henry Ford Museum in a realistic-looking display. It's amazing how quickly computers go from hot stuff to museum pieces, isn't it. I've owned and/or worked on several machines I've seen in museums.
Fewer meetings than usual today, so I actually accomplished a few things. It was great! On the other hand, most of my afternoon was spent in a meeting.
Went to the Young Women's camp fundraiser (is it starting again already?), had taco salad, and participated in a silent auction. I got one thing - Loyal Reader Number Twenty-Four's chocolate pie. It's delicious. Loyal Reader Number Two bought a coffee cake. Maybe we'll try it at breakfast tomorrow. Thanks, LRN24 and soon-to-be Loyal Reader (link note: somebody should comment on this poor woman's blog - she needs encouragement) Number TBD!
Situation otherwise normal. As mentioned before, Loyal Reader Number Twelve is coming over to be babysat tomorrow mid-day. Loyal Reader Number Four will be gone for much of that time, so we'll just have to see how it goes. She'll either have a great time or a terrible time. I'm voting for great. We have books. We have cars. We have Legos. We have yogurt. What more could she possibly need?
Today's Morrowlife controversy: How many of these things have you personally said in normal conversation? My answer: With all due respect, I personally, at the end of the day, have absolutely said all of them. I know I shouldn't of, but it's not rocket science, you know. At this moment in time, it's a nightmare 24/7.
Here's yet one more reason to keep Loyal Pet Number Two's cage closed. You never know when she'll come after our pet kangaroo.
Dinner went long, then I read the new Reader's Digest (well, I read the jokes, anyway), then I came up to blog. So the evening is gone. See you on Monday.

The poor woman with one Reader Loyal
Should have a precession quite Royal
And when she makes a post
Out should rush her great host
And comment until their blood doth boil.
Mark, that was positively epic. It made my day.
I've gotten back into pool! I've played twice in the last two days. It's wonderful. I love the sport to death. I almost want to live on campus forever so that I have a pool table available.
I can't wait to see you all at Christmas. I'm beginning to miss everyone. I haven't had time until now – and probably still don't – but I miss everybody.
I know Fluffy was sizing up Mia the last time they were both out and here. I think Fluffy has better judgment than the python, however. (I wonder if however is the 11th thing on the list of things that are irritating?!)
