That unsightly box on top of the new PC case is because they no longer come preinstalled, and if you want one you have to plug it into a USB port. And I want one because I still have a massive collection of music CDs, for example.

46 years after the C4P I have a PC that's 2,000 faster, has 2 million times the memory, 11 million times the storage, and cost 1/4 as much. #computers

A procrastinator's dream -- one more year of Windows 10 security updates while you figure out which version of Linux to migrate to. Just go to settings/updates and security/windows updates and look for the link. It's free.

When I was a kid and heard it said that "every cloud has a silver lining," I pictured it like the lining inside a coat, maybe made of satin. Later, when I realized what it meant, I thought it should be called a silver outlining.

Lost my credit card. Thought I left it in a shirt pocket so I checked the ones in the dryer. Nothing. Then looked in the dryer one more time... It's nice and clean now.

This was me sitting at the Torch of Friendship back in 2022 holding a sign that says No War With Iran. It was a bad idea then and it's a bad idea now. As wars always are.

My veteran to remember: This is my dad in about 1943-44. He was trying to grow a mustache to make himself look older because he was about to ship overseas as a second lieutenant in charge of a platoon in the 4th Armored Infantry. He also still dreamed of becoming a concert pianist.

It's entirely possible that this is the same model as the first one I saw at my granparents' house when I was about 3. It's a Dumont that began sales in 1947. Dumont was also an early but now nearly forgotten broadcast network in the Northeast. "Hey kids -- what time is it?"
