I got it to boot back up - looks like probably an overheated power supply, I'll be checking on it today. Sure looked like a goner last night though, BLINK, lights out..

I don't know how long it will last, it never did that before.

Contest is on - even if my primary PC goes down, we know how to do this. If I DO get blown offline, do me a favor and make it happen. This contest is the best thing I ever did besides the Tennessee chapter.

We are a team, there's four of us.

I'm now doing something I swore I never would. I'm online with the laptop that I've been safeguarding from net exposure. But it has a built in firewall.

Main PC and it's monitor both bit the big one following an attempt to clean the dust out of it. Inside of the power supply looked like some meltage went on in there...

Oh well. It lasted about ten years! I knew it was a kludge sandwhich when I first came home.

The standby unit is dead until I find a monitor that runs.

So - Who's the "DOCTOR STRANGEPOST" here?


"Mrs President - we have confirmation that Captain DONO has penetrated hostile airspace with a load of nuclear feces. Shall we issue the go ahead?"
(?)
"Yes, we've been tracking his progress ma'am - he ate at Taco Bell..."
(!?!!!)
"Very well, Mrs President. We are now going to defecatecon IV."

Wow! An unexpected response. Perhaps we should encase a sense of humor in glass on the wall .... to be broken by those in need.

Put another sense of humor next to it in a seperate case - to be opened only in time of war or hardship. When things are the worst, and there is no way out, I will break that glass and carry it with me.

I promise you
