Hey Jeff. Anything in the works for a BT ipad app? I tried the iphone app on my ipad, but when doubled the print is blurry. Just wondering.Thanks!Joe

Hello World. I've been MIA for a few years. Thought I'd stop in. I removed my old Santa Cat avatar and tried to upload a new one from a file. But the feature is greyed out. What's up with that?Hope you're all well.Thanks

Hi Marty. I was just thinking about you. Glad to hear you're OK. I haven't been around here in ages. Email sounds like a good idea. But all my PM's disappeared when BT crashed, your email address along with them. Send me a new one? Thanks, Joe

Pizza and wine. Two of the major food groups.

Last year my S.O. and I were wishing for our first flat panel HDTV. After months of research we settled on the Samsung 46 in. 7000 series .We were all set to buy it for approx $2300 US. But it didn't happen. Life's little problems got in the way and we put it on the back burner. The yankering for a new TV kicked in again when my Sony Trinitron 32 in. cathode TV started giving us problems recently. She talked me into going to Best Buy and Fry's to see this years crop. So off we go....I'm checking out the new Samsung "C" series (apparent upgrade to last yeats "B" series. I talked to the BB sale

Bobs ....(just for you Bobby...:-))

I agree Pete. But she works with laptops all day on the job. So this was a "special " gift.

Thank you!

What's recommended to use as a ipad stand while reading on lap? All replies appreciated. Joe

I guess so. It IS really beautiful, aside from the fact that it's basically a throwaway device and I could get a much more powerful laptop for less$$. But it's hers, not mine & she already likes it. Looks like it's official. I'll now be hanging out in the Mac forum. Re: avatar. Good idea. After all, there's only 133 shopping days 'til Christmas. http://eclecticesoterica.com/xmas_cnt.html

This is just another reason why I'm a cat person.

OK. Long story short. My S.O. has been home from the hospital for a week and is recovering nicely. Today is her birthday. And a big one. One of those decade ones. ( last one I had REALLY opened up my mid-life crisis....you wait you young people, you'll see...) Anyway, I just bought her an iPad wifi 32 gb. (she'd never use the 3G). I'm feeling guilty for some reason. Those of you that know me KNOW that I'm totally open source, hate DRM, love to get inside my PC's, etc. And yet I bought a $600 cute interface that ALLOWS you to buy things from Apple! And not much more. Am I missing something he

Thanks guys. Things are looking up. I really appreciate your messages.! Joe

YUCK! (canned food)

I've been MIA friom BT recently. But I thought I should post this. My S.O. came home from work two weeks ago with severe stomach cramps. She took the next two days off. (this is something she rarely does). I started getting nervous on day three. She didn't want to go to the doctor, but after talking to my MD friend and him telling me that she needs to be in the hospital NOW, I picked her up out of the chair, and pushed her out the door. We got into her doctor's office just before closing time...... Long story short, 8 hours later she was undergoing major emergency surgery. I wasn't sure that s

HA! My cat still has his Santa hat on.

Hello Dragon.

Hi and welcome to BT, the geekiest place on the "internets".

Not in Uganda. And not in most of Sub-Sahara Africa.

Go "pray" somewhere else please.
