Dang-the-luck...... I Didn't mean to shut dow the thread.

Hi Tink.

Don't worry, you didn' shut down the thread - it just takes a while for the old folks to:

wake up
remember where they are
get to the bathroom
get back in here
remember how the keyboard works

by which time they've usually forgotten what they wanted to say.

Hard drive in my computer died. On a friend's Mac, and he has it set up very weird. New hard drive coming. UGH. Tech is great when it works, when it doesn't ugh.

You didn't let any of the little buggers follow you in here did you?

*passes lorna a glass of Geritol*

Ice with that?

lorna_w · Jun 26, 2012

mmm, Geritol.

SR probably adds some pepper and a celery stick to her Geritol.

What'll we drink when Geritol doesn't work anymore?

BTW, lorna, welcome to the bar! Please close and lock the door to keep the teeners out.

well, hello young lady and of course you can!
that's right,.....you'll only be here for a few days. *eyeroll*

*wheels lorna over to the window*
i'm going to put you right here so you can look out the window for a while.

the jello cart will be around in a bit. today's special is 'yellow!'

Haggis · Jun 26, 2012

Mmmm. Yellow.

GailD · Jun 26, 2012

Oh, no! Not the jello again!

Lorna, be very wary of batteries bearing jello.

Lorna, you do NOT want to know how the jello got its lovely yellow tint.

(Think yellow snow)
