If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. 🙂 ---

Well at least the part about me being a total bitch won’t be made public, then. Thank you, hamsters! Btw, before I post anything I do a “select all” and “copy” so that it’s in my clipboard (at least I try to… I forget sometimes). Good habit to get into. ---

Thanks, Y’all. As you can see, even though I have 2500+ posts under my belt, I am still very much a computer novice in a lot of ways. I appreciate y’all’s patience with me, and I promise to say nice things about you in my will! 😉 Q ---

**Ringo** : I always wondered why you changed from **Beatle** , but you have the sense of humor that makes me want to share a beer with you and discuss _McCartney and Lennon_. **Eve** : Ever since she told me I could peel a grape for her, I have followed her posts. At one time I even disagreed (shuddder) with her, and caught hell for it, but she definitely belongs in the SDMB Hall Of Fame, because of who she is and because she has no pretentions. I admire that very much. **Mr.BlueSky** : You are a riddle to me, sir, but the fact that you know and love the music of **ELO** automatically makes you a friend of mine. I bet you also are a fan of _Roy Wood’s Wizzard_, right? More to come… 😃 Q ---

As for **Zenster’s** MIA status. He’s at _ **Burning Man** _. How do I know for sure? I was uspposed to meet him out there on the Playa with my wife to take some photo’s…Then came the sudden realization that I needed to be on campus for all the incoming students… **I SOOOOOOOOOO WANTED TO BE THERE…SORRY ZEN, I HOPE YOU GOT MY EMAIL…** BTW, my first class of the semester starts in 15…oh they’re not ready 😉 ---
