I am extremely disappointed that I can't access my Picasa albums with my new upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04!  Apparently it's not available for Ubuntu!

I am learning to love my iPad, but I'm enjoying more finding apps that aren't tied solely to Apple (although most are). Tom just ordered the newest Asus tablet which will arrive in February. We are anxious to compare.

I got a reaffirmation of my dislike for Windows OS yesterday:
My eye doc just converted to using computers during exams. They are on a learning curve with this so I was very patient with the longer than normal visit. While the doc was entering the information, Windows decided it was going to shut down! In the middle of the data entry! Thankfully the data was not erased and he did not have to enter it again. Boo Windows!

Thanks to all who participated! Hundreds of coats given away. Thanks to Fox 13 for coming and filming and interviewing (not sure if it showed up on any newscast....).

City Will Continue To Protect Free Speech Activities

Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of your 401Ks, took trillions in taxpayer funded bail outs, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes?

Yeah, me neither... Pass it on.

I don't get how people can "add you to their circles" without asking you permission first. There are people who have "added" me of whom I"ve never heard.
