I see Apple has a new version of the auto-fill feature. On my iPod, it kept proposing words that had nothing to do with what I was typing, not even sound. I turned it off after about 2 hours.

Now I am enjoying my status of wizard, although I have not checked the system yet.
I could not care less for squirrels as I am a beacon of light like my sexy friend the ssssshesnake.
I am reasonably content with the news of KC.
Apparently HotLips has not done any damage to himself or to his property with his insane fields operations.
GeoofC is slowly getting better.
Little Daughter made the centerfold of the local paper when she received her graduation diploma from Kinder Garden.
Both my girls enjoyed the supper I prepared and expressed their gratitude.
I think I will smoke a little cigar and filter a little brandy.

My sister was more patient than either of us, and she assures me that you get used to it after a while, and it becomes very useful. The apparently random way it selects words is actually based on how you are likely to mistype because the keys are so close together. Well, on the iPhone or iPad anyway. I guess that doesn't apply to you

It is called Chaos Power. Or everybody wins or it is not important to win but to participate, or better still like the great W.C: Fields used to say: Yes dear, it is important to partake.

Will I do this stuff? That is another issue.

Ok... 2 and 3 done. I guess that's not bad. And the days not over. Also played 4 rounds of Pandemic On the Brink with my sons. Good day so far. I'm hoping we can get the whole family to play a round of something a bit later... perhaps Puerto Rico or my new game (still water damaged) Power Grid.

Good start to a long long weekend.

That's because you didn't set down the braking rod deep enough. If you set it down correctly you can take your hands off the handlebars and watch it go by itself. I used to do a garden every year.

It isn't that bad. The problem stems from toggling from French to English all the time...

BTW: Remember when I was asking about furniture repair. While we had the guy weld the chair since that wasn't something we could do... we didn't have him fix the couch. Since it has a wood frame.... my wife decided to fix it herself. (Of course, I helped a bit).

There was a part of the frame that had cracked which was causing the sagging. We pulled the part out... she went and got some lumber to replace it. We cut it to size... drilled out the holes for the dowels. It took a bit of frustration but finally my wife got the new piece back in with proper wood glue and a new L bracket screwed in.

So, $150 saved on that job. Of course, repairing the leather upholstery is another issue. My wife things if we can get the cover off the cushion she can sew in a new vinyl piece on the side. (You know "leather" couches aren't all leather didn't you?).

L8r...
