In this May 11th, 2009 file photo, soldiers from the U.S. Army 1st Battalion, 26th Infantry take defensive positions at firebase Restrepo after receiving fire from Taliban positions in the Korengal Valley of Afghanistan’s Kunar Province. Spc. Zachery Boyd of Fort Worth, TX, far left was wearing ‘I love NY’ boxer shorts after rushing from his sleeping quarters to join his fellow platoon members. From far right is Spc. Cecil Montgomery of Many, LA, and Jordan Custer of Spokan, WA, center. Defense Secretary Robert Gates says American soldiers have more than their military might and training on their side in the war in Afghanistan. Some have pink underwear.
We scootered over to Woody’s in Groveland yesterday and I tried sweet potato fries for the 1st time. Actually Tracey got them and I ate a few of them. Not bad —— just goes to show you there is always something new to discover no matter how old you are.
Before we went on our scooter ride we had to work on our headsets (again). For some reason Tracey’s unit seems to have lost its mind and doesn’t want to pair up with mine. It is blue tooth and has never given us any trouble in the past but lately it seems to be messed up. We managed to make it work but it’s not working the way it is supposed to.
As usual —— the marketing department wrote the FAQ and troubleshooting section of the users manual. I don’t need to know all about how it is supposed to work —— I need to know how to reboot, reset or fix the dratted thing when it doesn’t work properly. You know, as in —— technical support!
Italics! For some reason I love them this morning!
The air conditioner is officially on. I hate to do that because the very sound of that thing running makes me think of dollar signs ($$$) but I prefer spending the money over the clammy feeling of all the humidity. I can still remember a childhood with no A/C and I shudder to think of it.
