Speaking of that...my work here is done.I guess she's got a lot of catching up to do on those cat pics you shared with her.So I go over to my mom's to help her set up the Kindle we got for her 7 MONTHS AGO.
It wasn't my idea to give it to her. Her tech skills make GM look like Charles Babbage.
Anyway the Kindle thing went pretty well. I showed her how to "check out" ebooks from the county library and how to buy books with her Amazon account.
Then she wanted me to show her how to use Facebook on the Kindle (oh, I showed her how to find wifi hot-spots too).
So I get Facebook set up and I notice the little notification icon . She's got 72 notifications.
She's been on Facebook for over 2 years and never clicked on that icon once. She had no idea what it did.
The other night when we were playing one of my kids claimed the cat token first. So I threw real cat at him.Family Game Night at the Boyle house just got serious.

black dude is checking that out pretty closely
I've already "used" the still photos...I'm kind of afraid to watch theovie.Homer - I'm ten minutes in to spring breakers and can say for sure it is a must see for those of you/us/them that like youngish yooloola.
I think you'll like it. I thought it was really good. It's like standing too close to the speaker at a rave in some parts, but that's part of the charm.I've already "used" the still photos...I'm kind of afraid to watch theovie.Homer - I'm ten minutes in to spring breakers and can say for sure it is a must see for those of you/us/them that like youngish yooloola.
What are they, Mormons?At my in laws lake house. We have ice and beer in all 3 fridges, not sure how old some of the beer is though. Luckily the in laws are not here.

We'd expect nothing less (or more - I'm undecided).FTR: Despite what I have posted I have not seen Pacific Rim. But I am going to hammer on it either way.
wasn't his general strategy just "we have lots of people and i don't care if they die.. so.. we're going to win by attrition"?For any WWII guys (ahem Tanner) theres a great PBS doc on Netflix about Stalingrad that I never saw before. "Secrets of the Dead: Deadliest Battle" is what it's called, and why I never bothered watching it before. But it's really fascinating to see what a friggin moron Stalin was when all this time I thought he was an absolute genius during that campaign.
BTW, I love posting about history while hammered at 7am.![]()
Great book. The movie is trash.Just started cloud atlas. Wanted to update everyone.
Best I can tell, something is taking place. I don't know what it is though.Great book. The movie is trash.Just started cloud atlas. Wanted to update everyone.
Ahhh the Russian campaign. Watching the Germans fight the Russians is like watching the Packers play the Vikings. I'm not really sure which one I want to lose more.For any WWII guys (ahem Tanner) theres a great PBS doc on Netflix about Stalingrad that I never saw before.

 0/4Bacheloring it for the weekend. Have already watched 4 movies (spring breakers, cloud atlas, jack reacher, gangster squad). Kind of bored at the moment. Rockets presser on shortly then ill probably take a shower. Maybe.
Bronson was one of those non-glossy bad ### heroes, like Clint and McQueen. Love him.Death wish marathon on amc has some promise.
First Death Wish was awesome. The sequels were terrible.Bronson was one of those non-glossy bad ### heroes, like Clint and McQueen. Love him.Death wish marathon on amc has some promise.![]()

Keep an eye out for a young Jeff Goldblum as one of the hoods/rapists at the beginning of the first movie.
