Robert Owen I was on Twitter yesterday morning and saw a tweet come through with a link to the image below… It originates from the JoyofTech over at Geekculture.com. It appears they have an issue with the name for the latest iPhone release. (Who can blame them…) Either that or the artist was looking at a Lingerie magazine during the WWDC. 😆 … Read more
Here is a funny for everyone this Friday:
A first grade teacher, Mrs. Brooks was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, “Johnny what is your problem?”
Johnny answered, “I am too smart for the first Grade. My sister is in the third grade and I am smarter than she is! I think I should be in third grade too.”
Mrs. Brooks had enough. She took Johnny to the principal’s office.
Had a user call reporting their computer shutting off suddenly. On reboot, they received the message “On last operation CPU reported a thermal event” Well.. This told me that the CPU fan had probably choked and the CPU had overheated causing the PC shut down. Upon inspection I found my initial thought was only partially correct. The CPU had overheated, … Read more

Continuing on the Theme of “Posts eaten” , we have this beauty below. It truly is a dandy, must be because, WordPress ate it up like a plate of Chocolate covered bacon… mmmm, bacon!
A friend of mine sent me a bit of information about our Presidential line that I did not know so, I thought I would share.
Who was the first President?
I’m sure that George Washington was your best guess. After all, no one else comes to mind.
But think back to your history books – The United States declared its independence in 1776, yet Washington did not take office until April 30, 1789.
So who was running the country during these initial years of this young country?
Here is another Post that must have tasted good because, WordPress ate it when I converted. It should still be useful to someone out there…
When Windows XP came out, we were introduced to the new and improved remote desktop. It’s Great! Believe me, I use it regularly.
Well, when you use it to connect to XP workstations you get to connect to the console session. However, when trying to connect to a Server 2000 or Server 2003 machine you get connected to a “Remote Desktop” not ever to the console. Well, this really kind of bugged me but not enough to worry about. Until now. Now, I use a couple of programs that run as a service but only interact with the console session. So, when you log in remotely it trys to start another instance of the program causing errors. Well, I finally got off my butt and found a way to connect to the console session using Remote Desktop.
This is another post that got lost in the WordPress conversion.
A good friend of mine called me a few weeks back having trouble with his modem….. I know, that title and first line probably remind you of one of those jokes… A horse, Rabbit, and Turtle went into a bar… Anyway, we had just had a large set of storms here in town and this was really of no surprise as I had been playing fix-it already that day. Turns out that lightning had come in on his phone line and fried his modem…
