Recently Shannon had a problem with "typing lag" on his PC. Those of you that are frequent readers may remember the post. If he used Word, or a terminal emulation, Notepad, etc. the on screen type would lag behind his actual typing. This was a very frustrating problem that was resolved by turning off Quick Books update program which resided in the start up group. He had just installed a USB hub and a Zip drive and we were pointing the accusing finger at one of these. K, general discussion and several emails helped us resolve this problem. When we ask for input please don't hesitate. That which seems trivial to one may be a crisis solution to another.
Last night bad weather was trumpeted in by the local howling sirens and played to an SRO crowd in my storm cellar. My air conditioning is out so the windows are open and the 9MM on the table. I heard voices. Concealing the gun in my pants I went outside to investigate. There was a crowd stacked like sardines in my storm house! It has been a standing tradition that all my neighbors can use it and the door is unlocked. Just hadn't noticed such a commotion before with the windows up and the air unit whirring. On the way back into the house a thought crossed my mind about how it's a good thing these people didn't notice my gun toting tendency.
