#4 Murphy's Law: Mathematically it can be stated as:

"If, in any given situation, there's a 50-50 chance of getting screwed, you'll get screwed 9 times out of 10."

Exception 1A: If dealing with software or hardware, the failure rate approaches unity.

This is why I retired......

Seriously, Fred and minions, many thanks....

#5 Thanks Fred for your patience. Sorry for the computer/server difficulties. There are many days I curse computers. Hang in there.

#7 Observation: Most hints are bullsit.

Ain't that the truth. I had the BSOD twice this year, and the hints are, for the most part, a sick joke.

#8 Thanks so very much Fred. I trust the community here at the Burg far more than other news sites, and I find the comments the highlight of most morning news reads. God bless your efforts and those here who care about this site. In the coming months we all face ugly possibilities but I am confident that here i can believe what i read, especially when is is 180 out from the MSM, and now far too often even Fox.

#9 It's been a rough couple of days for readers without Rantburg. I guess it's like an addiction. Rantingly, Bongino and Breitbart help but they're just not Rantburg. I finally did a DuckDuckGo search, found https://grampaw.org/rantburg and clicked on it. Does Fred need us to hit the tip jar? I can do that.

#10 We're flat broke at the moment. I need to hold another bleg as soon as I get thing running normally, assuming I ever do.

#11 Whew! I was beginning to think I had died and hadn't been good enough in this life. I will try to do marginally better just in case. Thanks, Fred et al, for giving me another chance. :-)

#12 Well I clicked on the paypal link and got a connection refusal. I'll get it to you by the end of the day when I get home Fred. You earned this.
