Made the mistake of turning on the Nats game to listen to while working. Turned it off at 2-0.
Hi everyone. How does one create an account here on the new site? I signed in with screen name and address, but does that mean I have an “account”? Also, I can’t figure out how to add a photo to my name. There must be something simple I’m not seeing… Thanks for any tips!
Oh, I see there’s lots of traffic elsewhere about this. Looks like I’ll need an account at something called WordPress. Okey-dokey, I’ll try to find that and press on.
Hurray… Uhh, hopefully this works.
huh, weird. Not exactly sure how this works or where to create an account. But I was able to post!
Glad to see an OTOT
So glad to see the OT thread back. So now we can see each other again.
Today, in breaking news on the personal front, today was the retirement of an old college friend who had been in a few classes with me and went into the same line of work as me, although we never did work at the same company. She had the big 7-0 birthday earlier this month. And now she’s retiring. (I’m still working in the industry but we could probably write a poem about me and call it “The Rime of the Ancient Programmer.)
Milbury is passe’. Good time for a change. But seems people have snagged the names I came up with and used for years. Guess I’ll need to devise a new one.
“zyph” was the name I came up with to play cards online with people around the world back in the 90’s and then my first xbox gamertag – taken now.
“earthborne” was my xbox live era gamertag, as it occurred to me that we have airborne and waterborne, but we are earthborne (vs earthbound yes) – taken
Hi gang. So, off topic open thread is back! I like the feeling of having a landing spot after some uncertainty.
Nothing like being the first skater out on a fresh sheet of ice.
Happy almost-April, everybody! Hope your week has treated you well.
Fresh ice, so to speak. Pretty.
