     Then in the last six months because of heart troubles I've had to quit caffeine totally. crying  So it's decaf Folgers coffee or decaf black tea.

    I have bad news.  Decaffinated drinks still have caffine.  So if you feel it's critical... you might want to double-check I'm not crazy, then avoid those too.  But if "less but still some" is ok, then ok. 

    I learned this at one point, and out of curiosity contacted the manufacturer of some drink (those curved rectangular tins of chocolaty/coffee powdered drinks... can't remember the name.  "vanilla cafe?" something like that) to find out exactly how much less caffine there was in them.  I was thinking it would have like 1% or .001% or something, but it turns out it was something like a third of the caffine.  Much less, but hardly gone.  Of course, I mixed it with about three times as many spoonfulls as you are supposed to have because it's tastier that way, plus my cups are about 12 oz instead of the standard 6 oz glass, so it turns out that my "decaffinated" drink was still about twice the caffine content of your average cup of coffee.

    Thanks.   Yeah, I figured there was some caffeine still but now instead of 4 or 5 mugs of coffee a day (down from the 8 or 10 that I drank 20 years ago) I now just have one cup of decaf coffee in the morning and 1 or 2 cups of decaf tea during the day.  And I can tell if I have too much because my heart wakes me up doing a spastic Rumba in the middle of the night. broken heart

    Rumba is supposed to be a slow dance.  surprise

    Maybe you mean a spastic lindy hop?

    Well, instead of a "bum-bum-bum-da-bum-bum" my old ticker goes "ba-bum-da-bum-ba-bum-bum,-da-bum-bum-ba-bum-bum-da-bum-bum"

     

    "bum-bum-bum-da-bum-bum"?

    I feel free?

    Well ya know what they say if you can't be free be cheap cool

    what am i doing with my life?  

    the hard questions. >.<   i'm 52.  is this all there is?

    Not necessarily.  I'm 56 and in the past year I've gone from no music production to dozens of songs and an entire album released, and there's no end in sight! surprise

    But it's not easy to pull off adding a new passion or changing your life up.. took me some sacrifices, heartache, and pain. sad

    ...I have them both where I am living.  Pretty nice.

    my neighbour has a rabbit called Gladys I think,, iz a radical pet cos rabbits  aren t allowed to wander around on their own here 

    We had a cell of radicalized possums living nearby... They were planning something, but since they move so slow it was very easy for the authorities to apprehend them. Radical Rabbits, would be much harder to monitor... I hear they almost took over Oz once... or was that marsupial Tyranosuarus Rexes? No, wait... Australia used giant hybrid Crocaroos (erroneously referred as Marsupial T-Rexs) to combat the rabbits, but since that was in the 50s there were giant mutant everything's all over and nobody really gave it much thought, well except for the people being eaten or stepped on by the giant mutant whatevers. Please correct me if this is wrong... I have a bad habit of messing up history... There are a lot of parallel universes out there and it's hard to tell which one is which.

    Hottest October day evah here today, our tomatoes and strawberries are getting huge so yay :)

    That's just the beginning... That's how the "giant  mutant whatever" movies always start...

    Phase 1- Yay, the strawberries are huge!

    Phase 2- Yay... The strawberries are really huge...!

    Phase 3- Um... Those are some freakishly large strawberries... Are they supposed to have teeth?

    Phase 4- Has anyone seen the cat lately?

    Phase 5- The strawberries are eating the neighbors... Run!

    Be vigilant and check your strawberries and tomatoes for limbs, tentacles, and/or teeth... Better safe than people salad, yeah?

    It is believed that time-management will be easier if the week can be neatly divided - the question now is whether to go for a six day week or an eight day week. Congratualtions on being selected as one of the test group for the six day option. Just carry on as normal and in due course you will be collected and taken to the lab where you will be humanely euthanised and have your brain and other organs extracted for examination (or vice versa).

    Yea! I finally got rid of my old recliner chair.  Small apartment, too small for two recliners in the same room.  Recliner too big to take up the stairs to the bedroom.  Finally found transport for it to somewhere else away from here, don't care, it's gone.  Yea! I can move in my livingroom/office/lab again without squeezing around that $#^$%& old recliner.

    It's a good thing I never have visitors who want to sit down. 

     

    big cushy recliner, nice to curl up in with a good horatio hornblower book.

    Was Horatio a sailor man ? Or the boy on the burning deck ? 

    Have to work tomorrow complaint, six days straight and the temperature is heading for 90s +

    What a morning!

    Out for a job interview at 10AM, got there, the headhunter took me up aannnddd.. the guy who was supposed to interview me was out until Tuesday and didn't notify anyone but his second in command.  Aaannnd, they had called an unexpected 10:30AM all-hands, so we only had half an hour! indecision

    Turns out they were looking for an applications guy, which if they'd actually READ my resume', I am not.  Total waste of my time.

    BUT.. I made it to the last interview stage with the Cary guys, so Tuesday morning we'll interview one more time and see where that goes.

    Got a 2PM cal with a headhunter in Seattle.. it's a long shot, but if he can find me something up there, I'd move in a flash.

    2PM call tomorrow with the Erie guys.. argh.. going to party at home and watch football all weekend.. indecision

    wondering if there is any kind of lateral segway from vba to .net  

    dot net looks so much more complex

    .NET is a powerful framework, but it's a gigantic, sprawling mess.  Expect to do a LOT of studying, even as I finished my one C#/.NET project (took six months) I was still figuring things out!  It IS good for quick development of complex programs.

    Major complaint.

    Microsoft critical update to my Win7-Pro clobbered my list of previous updates.  Now it won't do any updates 'cause it doesn't know what's needed and can't connect properly. angry  Probably gonna have to rebuild. sad
