Ramblings, opinions, and general meanderings from the Deep South

Couldn't sleep during the night and am faced with a CMOS checksum error that won't go away. Defaults in BIOS set, CMOS reset (even removed the battery for a while) and it still nags about the problem. Haven't replaced the battery, that's my next step. La modem was fubar-ed during a recent storm. May have reached out and touched the motherboard. Oh well, these 2:30am awakenings are generated by needs other than a hewlitt packard mobo.

Memorial Day is not too far off. I am planning a very casual parrothead phlocking and LAN party. If my current course holds true I'll end up having to do something weird that will pull me away, but so help me God, there will be fun at the Saltillo Beach House with or without my presence. My youngest daughter graduates this Friday and plans had been made to spend time with my family this week. Family is important to me. Nothing pleases me more than to be with my two wonderful daughters. We've outside duties that have arisen and will make the best of the little time granted. Every person has to put aside selfish pursuits and do that which is right on occasion.

If you are a "Bubba" fan and love parrots, palms n drinks with tiny umbrellas in 'em, here is a site that will connect you with many things parrothead
