Good morning Greg.
Howzitgoing?

 

[GregD]

Hi Expat, things are good, how about you?

 

[Expat]

Doing okay here. Gotta run back to Best Buy today. Had to replace my iMac. I specifically asked "is this the latest model?" They said yes. Get home, set it up. Starting restoring it. Check the system profiler and 2015 model. Call them, yell at them. So an hour drive back today to exchange it.

Hi Expat

It's improved a lot, the company says it will get even better when their new satellite comes on line soon, but I'm not holding my breath.

I just saw that the Dead played Wrigley Field last night.

I just saw that the Dead played Wrigley Field last night.

The Dead didn't die yet?

Good morning guys! Oh how I remember riding the train to Chicago when the Dead was playing anywhere. It was nuts. The regular commuters had nowhere to sit and their fans were all drunk, drugged up and passed out all over the place. I remember basically walking on them in the aisle to get through the train cars...oh how I do not miss the daily south shore commute.

Gotta go mix up the bread dough and get things set up for today's company. Tables need wiped down and I need to find a tablecloth for the big table for the food. Much to do but figured I should at least say hello! Beautiful sunny day...hope it stays that way for us. Turkey will go on the fire in a couple of hours.
