  1. Thanks all! We aren't as bad off as others, it's easy to keep things in perspective. At the hotel now, after a warm and comfy night's sleep. We found my mother-in-law's place has power, and I believe our place does too now; we'll check after we leave the hotel. Cleanup and replacing food are the next tasks. But everyone is OK, that's the best thing. Wishing good thoughts for others! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  2. Sending out good thoughts to everyone hit by this latest East Coast storm. We're without power now, going on about 36 hours and counting. Also had some larger tree limbs come down across most of our driveway and into the street. A great neighbor with battery-powered chainsaw helped at least move pieces to either side of the driveway..... Karen got us a hotel for tonight, power isn't expected back until tomorrow sometime (we hope!). We're also picking son Andrew up at school tomorrow, wishing for a warm house upon return....
  3. Very Happy Birthday!
  4. RIP Mr. Solomon.....got to visit the CA store several times, and the Boston store was a regular visit many a week each year.....
  5. x2. RIP.....
  6. One of my favorite M*A*S*H episodes was when he was coaching Radar about Classical music and other things. To this day, when I hear Bach mentioned, I raise my hand similar to the royalty wave, and say "Ah....Bach" Great actor, film, stage and voice.....RIP PS - and fuck cancer.... EDIT: was reminded that the episode I'm remembering was before CEW III joined the cast! Amazing what my mind thinks/remembers, or doesn't remember!
  7. Just heard this on sports radio a bit ago....RIP Roger.....
  8. ^^^ "in time" ? I thinking some ways I'm already there....
  9. Happy Birthday! Hope you all kept power last night, or at least got it back quickly if lost.
  10. My wife was in Florida, she preemptively changed her flight from yesterday to later tonight....she said literally 2 seats left from FL to Boston, across 3 different airports. Then, maybe 1 hour later, her original flight was cancelled. Very lucky.... We lost power at 8:30pm last night, just got it back at about 5:15 this morning. Made the best of it with LED candles, and lots of pages in my e-book read. Going soon to the fridge to check out what's good or not, think all will be good. Hope others made it through OK!
  11. Ha! And I thought there may have been a chance it would actually be BETTER built then the original.....silly me......
  12. I know your pain! I work in IT as well, and am the resident geek for my family..... I especially love when I have to talk with one of the "older generation" and they describe EVERY single byte of what they see on the screen. And all of this just so they can click "OK" The other one I like is when they get an error popup, they say something like "It's yelling at me...." Users.....! I once told my mom she had the typical ID Ten "T" error (ID10T).....she did end up chuckling......
  13. Happy Birthday! Celebrate when the snow melts.....
  14. If we're doing Ricardo, I'd go for his car commercial...... "Head-case dot org.....Rich Corinthian Leather" (make sure to roll the r's)
  15. Not good....but thanks for giving me a reason to re-post this.....
  16. Happy Birthday!!
  17. Nate, I think that's Russia causing havoc with the weather....or was that China? But yeah, it is, and we are, pretty fucked up methinks.
  18. Happy Birthday Dan!
  19. Well, tickety-boo, that sounds pretty cool.....enjoy!
  20. Dang.....I wonder if you can partition it and do RAID 1 Mirror - that would be great instead of my Synology NAS......otherwise I'd have to buy two
  21. Happy Birthday Al! Age a day now, celebrate later.....
  22. RIP to my sister-in-law Carol.....a wonderful, silly, generous, smart, sometimes neurotic woman who loved her family, especially her two kids, more than I thought humanly possible. Had been having epileptic seizures off and on, meds weren't fully helping; usually seizures in sets of two when they came. She and my brother were in Florida visiting my older nephew. Apparently last night she had two seizures but then a third, went back to bed after, and never woke up. I'm going to miss you horribly....may your love shine down from heaven.
  23. Happy Birthday!
  24. Happy Birthday, Saint Steve!
  25. Happy Birthday! And like Dusty said, hope you are doing well!
