    12:00 is the midday mark. :)


    a caramel machiato might be in my near future.

    2-1/2 more hours and I can head out.. going to the biker bar for beer and music, won't stay out late since there's the fair tomorrow.

    $10 for a slice of bug pizza.. oh well, worth it for the bragging rights! Wonder if I can get t-shirt that says "I ate scorpion pizza"... :gulp:

    nice day out. :)


    trying to write my first outlook vba. i have an outlook folder with 2 years of messages with word attachments. i want to save all those word attachments to my hard drive. the save all button grays out when selecting more than one message. >.< don't want the attachments deleted, needs a way to handle duplicate file names. sometimes the same attachment is forwarded through a whole conversation.


    Friday! :)


    Those sleepy hollow episodes are kinda short, can't imagine how many commercials they make people sit through. i gave up watching scifi channel in the breakroom, sometimes my whole break is all commercials, don't even know what show i'm supposed to be watching.


    Payday! :)

    These days a one hour show is probably only forty minutes without commercials. The first ones I recorded years ago were the Star Trek series. They were 52 minutes with no commercials, if I recall correctly. Pretty soon there will be more commercial time than program time.

    ETA: I don't know where you're watching the Sleepy Hollow episodes, but they might be cutting something out of the repeats.

    As for the Growing Up, there is supposed to be ages down to about 5yo. You might have to actually read the help me to find out where the dials are.


    i picked up the season1 dvd set. watched 7 episodes so far. only 5 left.

    they telling Ichabod about the dna testing and Jefferson's kids. He said something like, "you think you know somebody."
    tee hee. he freaked when he saw the tax on the donuts. :lol:

    Depends where you are. Doctor Who used to be about twenty-six half-hour(ish) episodes in its original format, but other than that 9and soaps) UK series usually ran for one season, so thirteen episodes) at a time (at most). That is, a season of a series was equal to a calendar season.

    Well, the subject was a US program, and I'm in the US, and so I'm speaking of programming here. A season used to be between 21 and 24 episodes. Check back to the 60s and 70s, look at boxed sets of series like Star Trek, The Addams Family, etc. Now some networks even break them up and show 6 episodes during the spring and another 6 during the autumn or winter (as an example). So there's not even continuity. You have to watch the last one to remember what the hell was happening before you start the second half of the season.

    Ten or twelve episodes is sometimes not even long enough for them to flesh out characters properly. No wonder so many shows are cancelled before they even hit their stride.

    Until all the craziness lately, a season used to start just after the kiddies were back in school, and ended around when they were getting out for summer vacation. So sometime in September until sometime in June, with a few breaks during the holiday season.

    It's raining today. Got out of the truck and stepped in a deep puddle. Now my sandal is soaked underneath my foot. Have my little floor heater going to dry off the sandal. I should have worn my steel toe boots but I didn't think of that until I got to work.

    Ugh, I hate damp feet... :blank:

    Two n a half Hours later we arrive in Brownsville. There is a pond across the street with some duckies.

    It was pouring off and on all through the drive

    I tried to take a pic of the ducks but they are in the shade

    9:33AM, up and about. Running a bit behind, so I'll leave for brekkie around 10:15AM, eat, then bus down to the Fair and head to the Midway for a slice of SCORPION PIZZA! :ahhh: The Midway doesn't open until 11, and I should arrive about Noon.

    Warm and sunny, definitely light shirt weather, and I'll be wearing my hat as well. :coolsmile: Camera charged, field recorder ready, so I can capture the sights and sounds of the Fair.

    Probably come home tonight and crash out - crowds tire and frustrate me, I normally avoid crowded events but.. eh, this time I'll put up with it. Just this once, though!

    I'll post pics tomorrow or Monday. :coolsmile:
