Re: So, who's ready to take the covid-19 vaccine ?

Glad you recovered, hopefully without any long-term damage or consequences. We apparently dodged a bullet during late 2019 and early 2020. Having been retired since Sept. 2019, we took some trips back East to visit with my daughter who was traveling across the country in an RV. Started early Octobe...

Re: So, who's ready to take the covid-19 vaccine ?

Hey! Long time, etc… Back in early November 2019, we went to the Biltmore House to do the Candlelight and Downton Abbey tours. Packed house, people from all over, stairs so using handrails etc etc. Big Petri dish, and I got… something. Tested for flu, strep, etc and not them. I was very, very, very ...

Please move the author block back to the left column. It's awkward on the right and largely invisible to me. I have vision issues with my right eye, and I have to make an effort to see it.

Re: Thinkpadders Rejoice (*LARGE PICS*)

True. Having said that, it was still a shady move on Lenovo's part and makes one wonder what "bugs" - not necessarily as easy to detect as this one or Superfish - might be shipped within their business-grade offerings, now or in the future. Well, I never said they weren't thick-headed about stuff l...

Since then I have been degraded to all sorts of titles, currently "Token Ring". That's hilarious. Knowing how outdated Token Ring is, I would almost have seen that as an offense. Almost like if Bill degraded me from 'Thinkpadder' to 'i-series user'. :lol: Good grief. Thin-skinned much? I named the ...
