  1. MRI confirmed torn meniscus in my knee and also arthritis. Surgery (scope) is scheduled for Thursday.

      DoctorTim, I'm sorry to hear that your recovery took so long! I've been led to believe that most of the time recovery from a knee scope is pretty quick. I'm certainly hoping that will be the case with mine.

  2. My New Year's resolution is to break my New Year's resolutions.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Exactly! And if I keep it, I'm breaking it.

  3. Just changed out a bad ignition coil in my car. It runs real well now, but I'd like to have some words with the engineers at Kia...

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Trekker, yes it was buried underneath a ton of totally useless plastic covering. SlowCoder, I'm not sure. It's a 2004 model. Is that before or after Hyundai bought them?

  4. Tailgating before the Bucs game. (Checked in at Raymond James Stadium) http://t.co/VTx0Wzez

      Tinman

      It was a great game despite the final score! I agree that the Bucs are starting to look pretty good and will hopefully put together a playoff season next year.

  5. Seriously, @microsoft? Still no actual dates for Windows Phone 8 in the U.S.? #windowsphone

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Well, I want one, otherwise I wouldn't care that they didn't announce the dates. I really like my WP7 phone and am looking forward to WP8.

  6. So weird. I'm watching Bananarama perform live on Fox News.

      Tinman

      Yeah, the brunette is still pretty hot. The blonde isn't bad either.

  7. More #NBCFail RT @DRUDGE_REPORT: NBC spoiled U.S. swimming victory moments before it aired... http://t.co/EUEWK1v5

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Americans have, but NBC has not, hence our complaints.

  8. Going flying tomorrow at noon to practice some landings. Anyone want to come along?

  9. How do I stop all the pornbots from following me on Twitter??

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Yeah, I've gone through and blocked a ton of them. I have no idea why they follow me in the first place!

  10. What is... that pain in my left arm? "@Drudge_Report: 'JEOPARDY!' Host Alex Trebek Suffers Heart Attack"

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Yes, I was very glad to hear it was only a mild heart attack. I watch Jeopardy regularly and itwwouldn't be the same without him.

  11. At the Apple Store with Beth, whose iPhone no longer takes a charge. Tempted to yell, "But my Windows Phone is working great!"

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Nope. She's had the iPhone for almost two years now.

  12. While playing the first-person space shooters yesterday, I totally forgot to play Space Attack! So I remedied that this morning.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      I meant the M-Network Space Attack. Essentially the Atari 2600 version of Intellivision Space Battle.

  13. Had two Atari 400 computers given to me yesterday. Neither worked, did some tinkering today and now one is working perfect. :)

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Nice little machine, horrible little keyboard... :)

  14. Atari 800 or 800XL ?

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      I still have my original 800 and use it more than any of the others I've acquired over the years.

  15. Sign in the men's locker room at LA Fitness: "Please do not be naked and/or shaving in the sauna." Sad that they would need that.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      The worst part is, for them to have decided they needed the sign, somebody must have been doing it...

      @MagitekAngel: Yes, naked isn't uncommon, although I'd rather everyone were clothed, but shaving in there is just gross.

       

      jtoubeaux: It's our local LA Fitness here in Tampa, FL.

  17. New iPad announcement = YAWN

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Please. There was NOTHING particularly exciting about it! "Higher resolution than an HDTV!" they said. So does every computer I own. "More processing power than an Xbox 360!" Congratulations, Apple, for finally catching up to 5-year-old technology. I stand by my yawn.

  18. Davy Jones once hit on Beth, asking her to go to his hotel room. And now he's dead. Jerk.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      He was almost 30 years older than she is, so it's a bit creepy.

      It was actually before we were married, but I still don't like it. :)

  21. Installing Windows 8 on my tablet PC.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      The Windows 8 Consumer Preview (basically the beta) was released today. I had been playing with the Developer Preview, but this version is much more feature-complete.

  22. Election Day in Florida. I REALLY need to decide who I'm voting for and go do it!

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Hatta, it's the primary election, so we can only vote for our own party's nominee for President.

  23. My desktop computer seems to have died this morning. It won't even power up.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      Yeah, that's what I suspect. I've found a couple of possible fixes online, short of replacing it, which I hope I don't have to do. I'm going to try them later and see if I can get it running.

  24. Someone vandalized our Christmas decorations (again), knocking down and mangling our lighted reindeer. I managed to fix them, more or less.

    1. Tinman

      Tinman

      I live in an otherwise nice neighborhood in Tampa, Florida. We do have some security cameras, but unfortunately they cover the front of the house, not the yard.
