Yes, as Tim has said, my computer crashed. Actually it was a
combination of the video card and the hard drive. The hard drive ended
up toasted, with no files able to be salvaged. I'd been having trouble
with the computer anyway, it was about nine years old, and I decided I
needed a new one. Besides, my wife offered to pay half! So, I'm now
the proud owner of a whiz bang machine that is very fast.
I posted a letter from my daughter a couple hours ago. She is thrilled
with the support she is getting, and I'd like to thank those who've
contributed.
I was happy to see the contributions from HK and Harry Krause. I've
just added my $75 in matching contribution for those. Thanks again!
But, I can't understand why one would make two contributions under
different names. However, I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth.
Again, thanks to all who've contributed. There is plenty of 'goal'
left though, so keep trying to put me in the poorhouse!
Great to see you back, only things you really missed was Shortpants
tearing into Harry, Slammer had another hissy fit and Donnie didn't
know enough not to reuse cotter pins
On the other hand that guy "Jeepinit" posted some nice pics of the new
uhpolstery on his restoration, fishwisher posted some great pics of
his new boat, and James gang posted a pic or two of his ass end...
Yeah, I saw a lot of the pics. Some great work going on there. Tom did
do a job on Harry, but I think Harry doesn't comprehend it. It's like
a Marine F-18 -- whoooosh.
I reinstated slammer and Salty in their place of honor before doing
anything else. It made the reading a little better. Both sound like a
couple of repressed pedophiles.
