We don't have Waffle House. We just got IHOP!
My right arm is still longer than my left from back in the day when I carried my "laptop" computer from place to place. (I think it was a Zenith. Was from back in the day when you could run Word Perfect off of one 3.5" floppy and save your files on the other. Didn't even NEED a harddrive!) ;)
Back then, I used to play more games on the computers. Wonderful mahjong version (Shanghai) on my ST. Played a poker game on the laptop that I liked because it didn't take long to figure out the computer's patterns for bluffing, etc. If I ever encountered a dealer like that, I'd be rich! ... I loved the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" adventure game, but never made it all the way through it. The only one I "solved" was "Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards." Considering all of the non-church-lady things I had to get Larry to do in order to win the game, I probably really shouldn't confess to the last part, so forget you read it. ;)
A half day late and 50 cents short, but I'm here! *L*
Yeah but I'm a girl and my unlimited power has to be pretty. Like, say, a whole country with like diamond and emerald mines.
Alas. My first request and I don't have it.
Who Can I Turn To? by Astrud Gilberto
South Africa? Are you sure? Or are we dealing with something more along the lines of Oz?
I give you presents all the time and you didn't even acknowledge my birthday.
Oh, yuh!! Emerald City! Good start!! Good color, too, will have to check clarity.
I must have been really high-tech, then...mine had one floppy drive that was both A: and B: with a software switch, and I installed a daughter board with 1.5Mbytes of memory chips that gave me a virtual hard drive.
Woo-Hoo, I was like Downtown Brown with that machine!
Don't forget, those yellow bricks are supposed to be 24 Karat...
How about The Girl From Ipanema?
No, I didn't know that before now. Google is our friend!

Learn something new every day! Thanks!
(It remains to be seen whether or not I'll be able to retain what I've learned 'til tomorrow.) ;)
Christmas is coming...
I'll try tonight. No, haven't heard of him. LOL!

Hey, Fawnn--it looks like they are going to repeat the "White House" show on Saturday at 4pm, CST. I haven't read the thread, and if 5 other people have given you this information, sorry! ;^) I just wanted to give the information when I got your question.
Hiya Ma!
Hi Canteeners and Troops!
(YAWN)
Sorry about that...
These early morning gigs wear me out!
I'll be here for awhile..
If I don't fall asleep at the keyboard!
Hugs all around!
Ms.B
