barqhead - 2008-08-18 8:43 AM Good morning, Nibbs. We decided to go with Oliver for the new kitty's name. So we have Lionel and Oliver. He just doesn't look like a Max to me. I liked Monty or Murphy, but the fam didn't. Someday I will have to learn how to post some pics. Must tear myself away from the computer to get busy. Bunco is at my house tomorrow and I have done nothing to get ready. Also must call to change appointments and such since it looks like I am still employed. Happy Monday!

Do y'all actually still play Bunco or is like what the ladies at work end up doing? Margaritas and more margaritas.

I could tell you what we do at Bunco, but then I would have to kill you

I feel like I have a cold today. My nose and chest feel a little congested. I wonder if it's just allergies or actual illness.

There are both running around. I had a staff person out all last week with head and chest congestion and they still aren't sounding very good today. Take care!

kns57 - 2008-08-18 9:39 AM Good morning Nibbs. I see I have a bunch of pages to catch up on. Why am I not surprised? LOL

I've given up trying to catch up....

They had a triathlon in Smurfland last night.

That gets you pretty much caught up

You mean here???

Someone else told me the same thing. Not very encouraging.

Why are professional society memberships so expensive? I'm a student, so I get a discount, but $75/year is STILL kind of expensive for a grad student. Especially if you want to be a member of multiple...

I recorded the Olympics last night and it said that women's triathlon would be included in the broadcast. When I went to watch it after work today, it wasn't on there. I'm sad.

Have to try to find a link on the NBC website.

And the triathlon annoyance continues. Apparently I can only watch videos from the NBC site if I have an Intel Mac (newer). I have an older Power PC version so they won't let me watch. How hard is it to make video compatible with lots of browsers? Not at all!!

I thought that was really annoying! I go by their descriptions when I set up my DVR and they were wrong. I hope they are right for the men's stuff tonight. I think it's set to start at 5:00 am on MSNBC or something.

Prime time coverage tonight says more gymnastics, trampoline, track and field, and beach volleyball. I don't think I'm interested in any of that.

trampoline...who knows. They jump and do tricks. Kind of lame. I assume it's on TV because of similarity to gymnastics.

I think we will watch rings, maybe vault, and the steeplechase (for people) race. 15 minutes, tops?

I made stronganoff for dinner. It turned out really well. I did boil over the noodles though and make a mess out of my cooktop. Shouldn't be too bad to clean.
