Thank you, it was the mother of one of my in-laws. She was 90 years old, and we had gone on some travels with her in the past.

I normally don't post about family crises on the forum, but like many others here, we've got 'em too. This has absolutely been the craziest year, but still I'm grateful for the good things in my life.

Yeah, I hope we can all enjoy at least 90 years - with good health.

I use Asus when building my obligatory Windows dev boxes and Unix machines. Wow, I actually *agree* with ET on something!

Maybe Hillary Clinton isn't so bad after all.

Hillary would NEVER use a Mac.

Yeah, and Apple would never use one of their biggest and best advocates, Rush Limbaugh, to promote their product. If you were evaluating personalities behind the products, Apple would definitely suck the big one. Only saving grace is that Bill Gates is just as big a lib weenie, so the only clear option is Linux.

Oops - Linux is just a big commie collective. CRAP!

Back to my TRS-80.
