Is It Hot Air or Is It Wind Energy

I'm trying to figure this out.  I was recently sent an email where the following statement was made:

"I will definitely require FTP log-in information where the current website files are hosted. This is a must-have, whether you decide to leave the website on the existing server or host it on the server I use to manage all of my clients' websites (they have excellent tech support and are driven by 100% wind energy)."

The part I'm trying to figure out and the part I'm stuck on is the "driven by 100% wind energy" isn't that just a fancy name for hot air.  Really?  I don't think I would want my tech support described as "driven by100% wind energy" but that's just me!  Tech support driven by 100% wind energy......I don't get it!

Generation Gap

Two of the guys in the shop were working on putting up a new shelf in my office today. They left for lunch but after lunch only one returned. I asked the returning one, “hey, where’s your sidekick?” He replied, “Oh, I don't have a sidekick, I have an iPhone.”  Really??

I don't want to see this

So last night when I went upstairs and started up the laptop.  That's the routine, that's what I do each and most every night. Last night was no different.  Except for this message:

"Your computer was unable to start. 

Start-up repair is checking your system for problems."

Excuse me what did you say and why did you say that?  Well it goes through "its process" and for better or worse it started up without any more messages.

Computers they have a mind of their own.

This isn't funny............really!

I Want To

Each day I deal with a good number of city and county websites in search of plans, addendums and planholder lists. It is so interesting to me how completely different each website is. Each website I go to I have to try and think what the person who designed that website might be thinking. What was going on in their mind when they set up the website. In most cases I look in their engineering department or public works department; that just seems logically to me given what I’m looking for. Sometimes it is so time-consuming because the information is so “embedded” it is ridiculous. It’s like looking for a needle in a hay stack. Take today for instance. I was looking on the City of Sausalito’s website; where to start, where to start! I checked out City Hall, I found Public Works, I went to the Engineering Division. Nothing……..I was looking for an addendum and just figured they didn’t keep that information on their website. Some cities do, some cities don’t. I rely on Builders’ Exchanges for a lot of that information; slowly but surely however cities are getting up to speed and putting this information on their own websites. Anyway, back to Sausalito an upscale town. I found out that they keep that information under “I Want To”……….who would have thought “I Want To” was the place to look! Who would have thought "I Want To" would be a heading on a city website. I want to.....hummmmm!  I want to eat ice cream, I want to take a nap, I want to own a corvette ......... that's what I want to do!

Great............

Today was a great day.  Work was great, lunch was great, the weather was really great........it just was great!  Then we came home.

1. Forgot to close the doggie door.......of course Belle and Lola made themselves at home.......not great!
2. Next made coleslaw for our work luncheon tomorrow......that was great!
3. Put some cabbage down the garbage disposal...........clogged the drain.......not so great!
4. Phone in the sink.....that was really not great at all!
