ChecksAccepted.jpg Originally uploaded by Sarolite. We love our mechanic, he's been good to us and our cars. But his wall is confusing. Left to right, it reads: "We welcome your check," "Your check is welcome," and then "No checks accepted." Good thing we're not the check-writing type!

WindozeCD.jpg Originally uploaded by Sarolite. This may be hard to read, it's a cell phone picture of a laptop screen. Not mine, but my aunt and uncle's new laptop that I was setting up for them (you know, downloading open source software in Spanish, etc). The powers that be (such as Microsoft and/or Compaq) are saving themselves a couple of pennies these days by not including CDs for new computers. The OS is hidden somewhere in some logical partition that supposedly won't go bad. You know, in theory. But they do recommend that you make a CD just in case. The text of the applet they pop up to do it, for those who don't have super-human eyesight: Number of DVD(DL)s required: 1 Number of DVDs required: 2 Number of CDs required: 12 Of course, all responsible Windows users who want to have a recovery disc should have dual-layer dvd burning capabilities. Can you imagine restoring Windows XP from 12 CDs?

Draco.jpg Originally uploaded by Sarolite. I have a series of pictures that I'm going to post here over the next several days. Things that have accumulated on my cell phone. This one is my late kitty Draco (July 2002-~February 2005.). He was very smart, very socialized to humans. I don't think he ever really interacted positively with other animals; he thought he was human. He'd wait for me outside the bathroom door, meet me at the door when I got home even when I worked nights (and got home about 4am), and at least once stole the ham right out of my sandwich while I was eating it. Sometimes, when I got out of bed, he'd go lay down on his back with his head on my pillow! Too cute. =) This picture was taken by me with my husband's phone (long before we got married, of course) and then sent to my phone.
