I've got all the web sites copied from Shirley, our current server, to Helen, our new server. I intended to have this done last night, but I had to deal with a hard drive crash -- by coincidence on the machine that was backing up Rantburg. Iphigenia, with a new hard drive and the latest Ubuntu-flavored Linux operating system, now appears hale and hearty. Having all the files here gives me the week to fiddle with them and make some of the changes I've been wanting. I'm hoping we can do the switch next weekend.tu3031, there's a message for you with the bartender in the O Club.
Sherry has graciously agreed to join us as a moderator. Her color will be greener than lotp's, not quite as dark green as Rab Steve's.
I will be offline for much of the weekend. Today is Baltimore's Hon Fest, where everybody who's anybody, plus most of us nobodies, shows up to eat and wear funny hats. We're meeting the Baltimore Mr. & Mrs. McIntosh for the occasion. This evening I'm hoping to be in Washington for a birthday party. Tomorrow is Father's Day and I'm invited to dine in the evening with the Washington Mr. & Mrs. McIntosh, who are in the early stages of expecting their first little bundle of joy. I have it on good authority that the child will be named Fred and grow up to be a paragon of virtue and a joy to his/her grandfather.
