Who'da thought Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper, and Marilyn Manson were geeks?


 



These BBQ's that MF keeps telling us about might be worth thinking twice about when the guilt-edged invitation arrives...


Gilt.

This made me smile.

Blame Apple’s rubbish auto correct - which is apparently much worse that Google’s because of Apple’s more stringent privacy policy - and me being too tired to proof read. Although the unintentional Freudian slip is quite funny!

It's my 21st wedding anniversary today. Makes me smile annually. 

 

 

 

We thought it was a good idea at the time...but of course, then kids came along and celebrating the anniversary on Xmas Eve became impossible.

Thanks. We've been together since we were kids, so the wedding anniversary is a considerably shortened timeframe, for us. 

 

We are an unusual model of old fashioned values/tenacity in this day and age where it's easy to have an argument and call it all quits.

Yesterday, our youngest (of three) turned 20. Along with a handful of emotions, there is also a smile.

I thought it was bad when my eldest turned 15! 20 seems so...grown up!

It does. And, it certainly makes me feel old!

We've been together since we were 17.

 

It's 32 years now and our eldest is 20.

 

I still feel so young but my body tells me otherwise if I try to do anything too physical !

When it's 24 December and a courier drops a new hoodie (straight from Texas, it took only ten days, put in a "quarantine" for the next few days, thanks AWS):

 

 

Then another courier drops a D-Link WiFi6 PCIe card that was coming for review:

 

 

 

Released image drag-and-drop to Geekzone editor. And a new update to HPE ILO just fixed something because the desktop fans that were running at 100% are now back to running at very low speed.

 

So a very good Christmas everyone!

I got one too. Felt like a kid getting a stamp on my hand for being good at the doctors.

Weather in Wellington looks like it just might let us play outside. Merry Christmas to all.

The covid thread isn't the top trending thread. Hopefully the trump thread will also disappear soon.
