Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

Out of Service

We had no internet service for most of this week.  

Time-Warner a.k.a RoadRunner had Daniel jump thru the hoops on a Windows machine (none of those dirty Linux or Apple machines please).  And they finally reached the conclusion that is was their own fault ... somehow they were losing 3 out of every 4 packets being sent.  It wasn't just us ... the computers in the town library had the same problem (also RoadRunner Internet).  

I was shocked when I was able to log on this morning and get something other than: "contacting server ..." endlessly with no response ... or very minimal activity happening.

So, YAY! they fixed it ... we once more have co0ntact with the world!!  :-)

Why? Just because you are the only one to read this every Sunday? :-p

You never know when someone looking for something else ... may just accidentally stumble across this blog, read it, and occasionally come back to leave a comment. :-)
