Liz found out at 5:45 pm today, that her actual court date was this morning

She's getting a ride to the courthouse in the morning to apologize and 'try' to rescheduele (unless they arrest her first)

Liz split for a few hours today. Albert, Jeanette's 31 year old boyfriend, wanted to go to her bedroom. I said NO WAY. Albert entered her bedroom through the bedroom window. I told him to leave. He refused, I called the police. By the time the police arrived, both were gone.

See, never a dull moment - lol

Liz and her daughter were fighting over my phone. Finally, Liz hid the phone. I had to argue with her for an hour to get my phone back - grrrrrr

At 3:00 today, I received a call from the city water department. They asked for my name, date of birth and the last four digits of my SSN. After supplying them with that data, they said my water would be turned back on tomorrow

Thursday will be my first shower in two very long months.

gets out the Fabreeze......... lol

It may take sheep dip

At this point, I'd take Febreeze or sheep dip, if it was cool.

WOO HOO, I have running water

A leaking roof doesn't count as running water. --FLO--

While it is true that my roof does leak directly over the kitchen, since there hasn't been any precipitation here in six months, I have a dry kitchen and a dead lawn.

For everyones information,

I just sent the police to mac's house on a welfare check as he has been off line for a few days and there was no answer to his telephone when I tried to call him. He just called me after the police left. He has yet another kidney stone, and has been in bed with that. And also the Apple computer I gave him a couple years back has given up the ghost; so he will be off line for a while until another one can be found for him. Mac was also grateful that I did call the police as it scared off the vermin at his place for a while.

thanks Ken I was wondering where he was. Dave

Good work Ken

You are greatly missed MacWolfie. So many of us watch your thread daily waiting to see what the next move will be.

Update:

I drove up to Mac's Wolf Den this morning to look at this computer, My diagnosis is that is has gone to the big iMac place in the sky.

In talking with Mac he said he would be able go to to the public library on Wed. or Thurs. once he has enough $ to pay the fine on his library card once he does this he will be able to log on and update things.

I wish there was more that I could do for him and his computer.

Ok folks, it seems we have an issue here. Mac is now completely without a computer, and there's no way in heck he will be able to replace it on his own.

So, with the permission of the board here, I would like to propose that we start a small fundraiser, just aiming to see if we can get him back online. The computer that burnt out was an iMac G4. Those aren't really all that expensive to replace, when going through ebay or the like. In fact, it's not even all that much to get a G5. And this is Mac, if someone needs to be able to keep in contact with the outside world, it's him.

Ideally, it would be nice to raise $150 or so to get Mac back with us. So please, can anyone spare a few $$$ to help?

On the plus side, EunuKen gave me his last iMac - a mini-Mac, so I'm back

Also on the plus side, Jeanette has been in Juvenile Hall for over a week and is due in court on Sept 7th.

It's good to see you back.

Props to Ken

I uploaded all my historical research from my external HD so I'm ready for much more research

Ken did say I need to pickup another USB port connector. Once installed, i'll have five extra ports

Liz visited Jeanette in Juvenile Hall today and says she's fattened up; see what a lil food will do. There, she's getting three good meals a day. She was lucky to get one scrawny meal a day from Liz.

Tomorrow is Jeanette's court date. I'll let you all know when I'm told what the outcome is. Gee, this is just like a Soap Opera

Your life is a soap opera, one we've all been following for years now.

Speaking of my years of hard work, Slammr, when do I start collecting my residuals?

Life is full of pluses and minuses: on the plus side, I received a water bill and it said I only owed $3.00.

home from Juvenile Hall today. I wasn't given any details, thus far.
