Some Wimpiness and Other Things

Thinking about changing this name to Saltillo Wimp House. Both ears are infected, generally feeling blah and have to fast today for tests at 2:00PM. Yuck! Double Yuck! I hope they don't pronounce me diabetic, but things aren't looking good. Seems to be part of the aging process - at least in my family. Dad was insulin dependent 22 years before he passed, my only sibling, brother Dan, and Mother are both diabetic. I've been fortunate.

Delivering a PC this morning if it will ever finish defragging. Ahhhhh, just checked and the defrag is done. This machine has been a tough one. It's been on the bench several days. Had to do a complete hard drive wipe and re-installation. All data was lost. The back up unit failed. Redundancy on backup is not a bad idea. Extra memory and 100mm fan in rear blowing out changed the performance drastically. Nice machine with 4 memory banks and a PCIe slot. Athlon 64 3800 running at normal clock speed. Very clean well kept machine. Not something you see everyday.

Hope everyone is maintaining in this heat. Just hang in there. December will be here before you know it! Later.
