Just did some research and I guess it wasn't hosting the Mac OS but
had uploaded a series of files to make linux look like the Mac
interface. I'm guessing since Mac apps are built to run on a unix
kernal, that they'd likely behave under linux but I've not
experimented.

That's the sort of thing that'll have to wait for retirement. Maybe
that'll be my lint.

Don't count on it. If you are like many, here's the phases of
retirement adjustments.

Phase I

Guilt. You wake up every morning at the same time as when you were
working 60-80 hrs a week and after performing the three "S"'so , you
realize you have nowhere to go. You start contacting your former
associates to make sure everything at the company is ok. As time
goes on and you realize the company is surviving fine without you,
another sense of guilt starts to creep in. What's your purpose now?

For me, this phase lasted the better part of 3 years.


Phase II

You start to relax a bit. The gain level of working and/or running
your business has been turned down considerably. You start to
realize that there's more to life than being consumed with a business
that frankly was turning into re-runs of past experiences. You start
to become out of date with respect to current technology and you
really don't care. Your hair, if you have any, gets longer.

Occasionally new business ideas enter your head but are quickly
squashed when you start thinking of all the start-up issues involved.
You start exploring and doing things that you never had time to do
before.


Phase III

You discover the properties of clothes dryer lint.

Eisboch
Our big project last week was introducing our Springer Spaniel to the
threadmill.
Now when the weather is too bad to drive to the park... he will still
get his exercise. He's a bit reluctant, but is catching on pretty
good.

I tried that with my wife's cat, who is a tad overweight. Tried it six
times. Cat just sat down and waited until the belt got to the back of
the device and fell off. Six times.

Are you kidding me? Putting a cat or dog on a treadmill? Just feed them
less. Saves you money.


Guess you don't watch 'The Dog Whisperer'. http://www.cesarmillaninc.com/

Ah, no.

I have my wife take the dogs on a walk every day. Keeps the dogs in shape
and the wife in shape.

Our dog is a young sporting type. he needs more than 'walks'........ (of
which he gets 4 or 5 a day in the neighbourhood).
