Welcome to the new look
Wave Without A Shore

Thanks to some wonderful friends. This is going to be a project, and Jane can explain it...as it develops.

http://www.iflscience.com/space/star-our-galactic-neighbourhood-just-exploded Follow the 2 pointer stars of the bowl of the little dipper, between the little and big dippers about midway...for those of you who WON'T be clouded over until March!

Down a pound from the lowest I've been, period. So all the holiday weight is off, plus one. Jane's aggravated because she's not losing at the moment, and we have indulged a bit in low-carb (but not carb-free) ice cream---which, let me tell you, is a new product that...

I debated for a long time whether or not I could use Dragon speech recognition. I tried it once back in the 70s or 80s and it was awful. You had to talk like a robot to make it understand you. I also hate their run-on commercials. But I also know that using your hands...

Two shirts from the 70's that I'm determined to wear again. Belts from the 70's that are still cool. Enough black con tees to equip a regiment. A pirate coat and shirt and boots... A 1960's velvet shirt that---oh, dear, I'm not sure I have the nerve to wear. Now,...

She's finishing a novel---a critical scene---and we usually leave the word processors up when playing games. We were playing Guild Wars last evening. So...well, likely that has nothing to do with it. Word Perfect has its screwy notions. At any rate, about the time I...

I'd patched it for a south wind. Lucky us, the prevailing flavor is north. It broke the corner again. So I went looking for a patch: nail/screw a board so the boards from the front-of-you fence can't slide past the beside-you fence or [patch #2] fall backward. Found...

I love the sparkly lights. And our oil lamps, which we have in number---7 such. We just bought 4 gallons more lamp oil. (Did you know you can get it from restaurant supply far, far cheaper than you can buy it from other sources?) We're ablaze with such lamps, and the...
