I Promise!

Canyon Road- Santa Fe, New Mexico


I promise never, ever again to make eye contact and nod thoughtfully while secretly compiling our dinner menu and grocery list in my head as you are waxing eloquently in regard to the how superior Unix is compared to Microsoft (again). ...Or when you explain in great detail the pros and cons (along with the country of origin) of the dozens of (free!) operating systems available on Unix…or something. How does that all work again? I WILL pay attention this time.

I promise never, ever again complain that the grass is taller than the dog in the back yard as you spend an entire weekend trying to tweak the above mentioned operating system into do something that any other “normal” computer does right out of the box.

Why??

Because, techno-man of my dreams, you performed CPR on my laptop and breathed just enough life back into it to be able to retrieve my Santa Fe photos. You worked your IT magic and plucked the photos from my computer’s scrambled mind right before the brain transplant- even though others said it couldn't be done.

ExtraSpecialBitter you totally rock!

Computers are such fickle things. Thank goodness you didn't lose this anything!

aah ... recovery is a beatiful thing! Thanks for the wonderful photos.

Unix? My oldest son keeps on about Linux. Linux this, Linux that. Shells and GUI and OS. I think the closest I'll come to getting my lawn mowed by him is focusing on that single blade of grass? :)

trena - if your son focuses on that blade of grass long enough, he just might be able to write a haiku about it. hey, it's something...
