Yum. I loved those. That deep, bitter sweet flavour of the molasses. I loved those.

I love those things. The old style dark one that were very firm. Yum.

I had a traveling farm hand from France who had never been trick or treating. She was 34. She was super excited to go so we took her when we took our kids out. At each house I said, “She’s 34 and from France and has never been trick or treating.” She got a bunch of candy and was very pleased.

You still have to mask. It’s how we get along with normies.

Last I heard it was 4%.

Maybe it will make 5% next year, then.

Hehehe. Yes.

I had someone say, “Go back and play with your Legos!”

“It’s , ‘Lego bricks.’”

Hehehe

This will be the best thing that ever happened to Linux. Hell, it might even make it up to 4.5% market share.

The very best is when some fucking loser goes back through your comment history and says, “Oh ya, well…” and brings up something you wrote months ago to try to embarrass you into silence. Fuck those pathetic fucking losers.

Heh.

Actually…I was two of them. me.world and me.ca

I was one of them.

In most parts of the world people don’t sit in their houses with guns fantasizing about murdering people.

Reject this American imperialist capitalist bullshit.

I write several flavours of BASIC fluently, Fortran and Pascal passably, three forms of assembler well enough to get by, and I’ve worked in COBOL.

I’m currently in treatment for Hodgin Lymphoma. An old friend that I rarely see volunteered to take me to chemo every two weeks for six months. We have really good visits while I’m in the chair. Last week I got out my tablet and showed him my farm in Minecraft. I don’t like being asked how I’m doing or how I’m feeling because literally everyone asks and I get tired of answering. I prefer, “Do you need anything?” or “Can I help in any way?” I’m not good at asking for help. A friend who I have helped several times just showed up with her partner and four kids and their partners and got our place ready for fall. One of the kids partners was a plumber and he installed a couple of sinks for us. We have a bunch of people around us who have offered to help and meant it. One got up early and drove my son and his bike to school two days after chemo. Another has done groceries for us and taken my wife grocery shopping because she doesn’t drive. If you offer to help mean it and do anything you can to help. Otherwise, just be there and do things other than talk about cancer. Normalcy is welcome. If she wants to talk, talk. If she just wants you to be there, be there.

In the days before *nx, “terminal” meant a VT terminal and “clear” wasn’t a thing.

Is one of my favorites. Of course, most of you are too young to know what that means.
