I know some here do work Saturdays, I was just pretty sure that our favorite ursine wasn’t one of them, and then saw mentions in other posts of weekend plans that were clearly for a two-day period, and realized that my odd certainty that it’s already Saturday was false. 🙂

I forgot to mention earlier I found good Easter candy almost a week later! I now have more Reese’s eggs and I got a pack of **CADBURY CHOCOLATE CREME EGGS!** I’ve only had those once years ago and they were so good! Now they are mine and I will eat one! 😃

I believed succotash to be a squash.  
It is always embarrassing when a guy who cooks with salad dressing has more culinary knowledge than I.

Oh, the shame!

A guaranteed fartfest! 😃 We also had marinated carrots. Plus, I made a peach cobbler of which we just et some fresh outta the oven with a big ol’ scoop of good 'niller ice cream on top. This makes me happy.

Before I started working with mainframes, I used to mess around with electronics, and have released plenty of magic smoke over the years.

One of the most memorable releases was an old Compaq Portable computer. One of the first “portable” computers with an orange plasma screen and the whole thing probably weighed 25 pounds. I thought I’d fire it up one day, and the faeries and wizards were most displeased. A huge cloud of red smoke billowed out, and not having the services of a blacksmith at hand, I decided it was time to get rid of the beast.

Almost forgot - as promised, here’s [a pic of the infusion center](http://www.passwordmuseum.com/blah.jpg). Call it the confusion center as it shows up right side up on my computer, but in a web browser, it flips. 😕

That formica wall paneling with all of the metal moldings makes me feel like I’m inside an RV.
