Hi Hap,

->  hn> storage sleeves. I can just drop the whole page
->  hn> on a light box and see em all.

-> Yes but for having a family show, it was a lot easier to do it the way
-> Dad did.  He'd usually have everything set so he could insert a
-> cartridge into the projector and show 20 (or more, I forget what they
-> held) without long pauses between to take the slide out of the box, put
-> it into the projector, view, remove, etc. We never got popcorn with

 hn> Yep, my carousel's hold either 80 or 100 slides.

Steve worked building those carousel projectors years ago. Maybe you got
one he had his hands on.


 hn> Now you can burn em to CD or DVD with IRFANVIEW
 hn> and make a slideshow with music and fading effects
 hn> between the photos!

If you have the time to do so.  We don't, at the moment.

 hn> I don't mind getting up early, do it every
 hn> day!(grin)

I'm not an early bird unless I have to be.  Then some days it'll take a
good hot cuppa sweet tea to really get me ready to face the day.

-> -> I understand. Same idea as buying your candy for trick or treaters
-> -> before the latter part of October. (G)

 hn> Yep, gotta do that too!

So do we.  Have no idea how many to expect here.  Our church is having a
Fall Festival the night before, with a dessert auction as part of it.
I'm thinking of making a pumpkin roll for the sale.


->  hn> The gave me vicodin prescription today...
->  hn> there's enough pills there to dope an
->  hn> elephant!!

-> Taken together, yes. One at a time, no, just an average person.

 hn> Looks like there's about a month's worth
 hn> in there! I expect that I'll use them for
 hn> the first two or three days...but not beyond
 hn> that. I have a fairly high pain threshold and
 hn> as long as I can deal with the pain I'd rather
 hn> not deal with drugs.

Depends on the pain for me.  Some is more tolerable than others.  When
you're trying to sleep and every part of your body aches, then it's time
for help.  During the day I usually ignore "routine" stuff. (I do take
something at lunch time to keep it managable until the bed time meds.)

BTW, Steve had some leg cramps yesterday morning so he tried the vinegar
trick, using a really aged balsamic vinegar.  He said it got rid of the
cramps fast but he had to chase the vinegar with a glass of water as the
amount he drank tasted really bad.  On salads, in small amounts, it's
good but an ounce or more, straight up...........

-> Good days to get the soup or stew pot going.

 hn> YUP!
 hn> Used it yesterday and will fire it
 hn> up again today, getting those
 hn> leftovers ready for next week!

I'll probably pull it out again next week.  We've got enough left overs
in the fridge that need using up to carry us for a few days yet.

->  hn> You'll be doing more studying I'll bet! (G)

-> Got that in one.  Had to finish a paper yesterday to turn in today.  My
-> "professional" writing skills are rusty and out of date.  Steve was
-> helping me format; we were both thumbing thru Turabian every couple of
-> minutes to check one point or another.  We finished the basic editing
-> button.  Two more short papers by the end of the month and I'll be done
-> writing except for a final exam.

 hn> Gotta love those word processing
 hn> programs!

Sure beat the manual typewriter I used in college.  Most of my
instructors let me use end notes which were easier to do than foot
notes.

->  hn> I'll wave at ya from Molokai!

-> I think we're both pipe dreaming at this poi-nt.

 hn> Just a couple of Kukui nuts!
 hn> chat with you soon!

See you lei-ter!
