If you intend to write, first read this.
This is an intimate biography focusing on Andrew Jackson's evolutionary road to the White House.

We went in for our scheduled consultation with my oncologist at Dana Farber yesterday.
"See you in six months." was what she said.
We liked that.
Sunday, April 15, 2012 at 10:08AM Aren't you all excited about Evacuation Day in Boston tomorrow? Well, it really isn't tomorrow, it's really Tuesday but Monday's are a much easier day to holiday and run a marathon. No! Wait, that's Patriot's Day. No! Wait again. That's Marathon Monday. Jeeze Loo Ease!
Evacuation Day is really a disguised St. Patrick's Day. Though it is the day the British left Boston, rather causally in 1776 when they woke up finding a whole bunch of canons from New York pointing at them from Dorchester. It was not an official day off until 1938 when the then Celtically dominated General Court was looking for a way to get the day off. (Don't get me started about June 17th.)
What this generally means for us common folk is I-495 will be a mess for the morning commute and I-95 for the afternoon. Forget about I-90 from 495 to Boston for most of the day. Come to think about it, that's normal for a Monday any way.
In the immortal words of the late Roseanne Roseannadanna, "never mind."

Monday, March 5, 2012 at 8:47PM Editors Sunday, February 19, 2012 at 9:24AM I know I probably have better things to do with my one day off. It's just that I knew it worked before. I know it's a matter of getting the right thing on either side of a "/". I am going into FileZilla to see if the solution is in the file structure.
Of course, when I tried to transfer files over with FileZilla it said I had to register the DLL's, both 32 bit and 64 bit.
The word GAAHHHH comes to mind.
Perhaps I'll skip all this and go read an Elmore James novel.

Sunday, February 19, 2012 at 12:45AM There were nine people in the class I taught today.
They were all there because they had to be. I see this a lot. My goal is, by the end of the class to see they are all glad they came.
I can honestly say my mission was accomplished.
Next week I will be on the other side. I have to attend a three day class. I can't say I am overly eager. I hope the people who teach will have the same goal I have and accomplish their mission as successfully.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 10:19AM We recently were notified by LiveJournal that the FamouGrazing account there would be deleted due to inactivity.
That was quickly fixed. We also ensured their Android app was installed on our phones as well.
But, as has been demonstrated here, having an app doesn't mean we'll keep our blogs up to date.
An occasional kick in the but doesn't hurt.
