Haha, thanks, **rosie**.

It’s freezing cold out - past freezing, actually - but I have to venture out and get my bus pass renewed.

A Google Search of “windows computer migration tool” found a number of answers, including some that allow you to go from PC to Mac. Mac to Mac has long been available and includes the firewire method described above.

Answer is you are likely to get the majority of the move done automatically and the final bits will have to be done by hand.

In a related note I saw the post in Marketplace. Someone get a new toy, getting rid of the old one?

Happy Saturday!

It’s cold, sunny but cold.

Nothing much to do today but irk. I need the money so that works. I need to clean up the kitchen a little but that can wait a bit. Let Sah-son finish what he is doing.

Sah-dpg dpesn’'t have much of a muzzle to put a muzzle on.

Someone bought a second toy hoping to flip it. He was going to paint it till he found out its paint job is a unique custom job. Anyway, it’s a post-divorce-gotta-get-rid-of-it acquisition that he’s hoping to turn a small profit on.

Chrome is reflective.  
It’s good to see the photographer was wearing of a green sweatshirt during picture taking rather than a different [suit](http://www.snopes.com/photos/risque/kettle.asp). :eek:

In other news, my jacket didn’t come today. ☹ (All I has is one picture of it.)

I’ve had a very frustrating week capped off by the bill for my PT coming in the mail. I am officially frittering away my evening.

Supper was yum! Baked cod - rapidly becoming my favorite fish, corn, and leftover N.O.T.s, plus 'nanner bread. A very pale dinner, but tasty.

I have 2 more bunnehs to finish stuffing, then I’ll tie ribbons around their necks. Tomorrow, I’ll take pics, even tho I don’t have Easter grass for the baskets.

Dunno how I’ll waste the rest of the night - maybe I’ll make a shawl.

Hey Mumpers, it’s time for another **VunderBob** poison pen letter!

Twas a night of crazies and cranky old geezers. Time for beer. I’m off tomorrow, so I can join in the frittering.😃

Love the letter, **BBBobbio**. Remind me to stay on your good side.

Neat Harley, **Mooommmm!**. But if I had that kind of cash, I’d blow it on hockey.
