With Hurricane Bill now well north of here, the cold front that was stalled to the West, yielding an unrelenting blast of hot air from the Southwest, has passed through. Some nicely violent thunderstorms provided for good night lightning displays Fri. & Sat..

Cool enough last night for a decent night's sleep for the 1st time in a week. (AC's on the fritz; compressor, etal. works fine, but there's a problem with an inaccessible plenum fan control switch. :( )

If he's one of those that favor single over blend, then we have that in common. :D

As far as I'm concerned, Glenfiddich and The Glenlivet are the only two out there for me (at least, within my price range.)

However, my birthday is far enough away, that if any of you would care to gift me a bottle of Octomore or Macallan, you've got time to save up. ;)

You bet! Assuming you're coming by the Atlantic route, land your canoe in Veracruz, make your way about 3,354 km overland to Tijuana, and we're the second house on the left. ;)

I hope you like Mexican food! We'll keep a light on for you! :p

Now David made a suggestion a long ways back that multiple numbers was okay, so just to make up for having missed the past 26 months worth of postings, I'll plop them all in right here:

Mine is so severe that the effect spreads well beyond the hands & feet; perhaps that's a result of my having been so young when frostbitten.

Not today; the balance will have to wait for another day.

Nasal congestion, owing to chronic sinusitis, leads to a condition called exertion asthma under warm, humid conditions, requiring that mowing a mere 3500 sq. ft. be done in several sessions, generally 4-5, with prolonged intervening recovery periods equal to 1-2 times the amount of time spent mowing. :(

Since you're the hot weather man, perhaps you'd care to finish for me. :D

We're in the Tijuana area, just south of San Diego. Such storms nearly always break up significantly before reaching us, but even just heavy rains can play havoc here, with a drainage system that defies definition!

The biggest concern is if Jimena jumps the peninsula into the Sea of Cortez. Historically, that allows the storm to continue to grow in strength, while it's funneled all the way up into Arizona, wreaking a LOT of destruction of all the small villages and communities on both coasts of the sea. We're back about 300 meters from the Pacific coast (we used to be about 20 meters, but I built this about six years ago, to get further back), and nearly sixty feet higher. Drainage isn't an issue for me, but our community has only one land route in and out, and it ALWAYS floods, even in a moderate rain.

Makes life interesting, but it goes with the territory. ;)

Trying to continue my learning curve on php and css, and brushing up on my html. I've been trying reworking my BIL's site, adding a bunch of new products, and generally reconfiguring it.

Looks as though we may not even get any rain out of Jimena. It's downgraded quite a bit, and may soon kick out into the Pacific.

I've never even seen any algol. And it's been years since I played with LISP.

I logged more than a few hours on a 360. My next to last duty station was CinCLantFlt/COSL.

My boss was a O-6 that didn't see anything strange about directing a brand new Ensign to develop a program for a pet project, even though my background was engineering. :rolleyes:

Learned a lot, though.

Cussed a lot in the process, too. I think I wore out two keypunch machines all by myself!

Hiya, Martin. I'd begun to think you were put out with us, 'cause you didn't drop by! :D

I don't remember if they were 026 or 029, DS. I'd have to look them up and see if they look familiar to me. I just remember that I ended up with about 5300 cards in the program, and my database was six or seven boxes!

026 - Round, button style keys

029 - Square ones, like those on a Selectric typewriter

Keypunch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keypunch)

Yep; they and the 024s were a PITA. Still, they beat the hell out of the earlier manual punches.

I learned to type on a manual typewriter. And, despite my dislike for it, I actually got to be so good on the 026 that, when I had to switch to the 029, I sucked! :( And, since the 029 keyboard was essentially that of a Selectric, I didn't do any better on a 1620.

To this day, I'm still not truly proficient on a keyboard. I can frequently be found using the "Columbus" method - search for a key and land on it. ;)
