Sept 30
We are at the end of our travels. We are in San Fran with Colleen and Kevin. We have not been tourists at all but have enjoyed their company and that of their friends. Kevin turned 60 so we have had 2 birthday celebrations, breakfast with friends, been out to dinner and lunch[twice] at costco. Off course we manged to do some shopping! It has been VERY hot-108F-driving to Vaccuville. This has been their late summer as before this there was really no summer. We have found out we can take 5 pieces of luggage home between us! That is our job for tomorrow before we fly out tomorrow night. We hope that you have enjoyed the blog and shared with us our travels. Bye for now.

One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex was staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. It was covered with names, and small American flags were mounted on either side of it.

The seven-year-old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the boy and said quietly, "Good morning Alex."

"Good morning Pastor," replied the young man, still focused on the plaque.

"Pastor McGhee, what is this?" Alex asked. "Well, son, it's a memorial to all the men and women who have died in the service." Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque. Little Alex's voice was barely audible when he asked, "Which one, the 9:00 or the 10:30 service?"

Dr.Seuss explains "Why Computers Sometimes Crash."

If a packet hits a pocket on a port,and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!

If the label on the cable on the table at your house,says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol,that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall,

and your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse;then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, ' cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!

When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the macro code instructions cause unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!
