Mom is really messed up.
I don’t think either kid likes her.
They had to put up with her to live.
If you are going to take hostages do
after they bring their own food.
This new computer…
I feel like I’m being beaten to death with little bits of gravel.
Little things driving me crazy. Like the latest.
My mouse and keyboard started acting erratically. Not moving, then
jumping across the screen. Not typing, then letters flooding across.
Typical low battery behavior. Charged batteries, no improvement.
Thought computer needed USB drivers re-installed. Nope.
Replaced USB extension to the hub. Nope.
Problem was, every time I changed something, it worked
properly for a short while. Miserable to diagnose.
Turns out the USB hub I was using was going bad. Not the computer.
This time.
Changed hub, haven’t had any problems all day. Fingers crossed.
You realise now, why they call computers FREDS.
F…ing ridiculous electronic devices.
Good luck, heres hoping you fixed it.
Remember when I was talking about needing a new C drive? it was acting like that too,
it was like my computer was lagging. With the HHD being close to full, it was taking
forever for page flipping and searching for program files. Once I replaced it, those
cleared up. Or they were, my one external is getting there now, too many projects
and .stl files on the drive. Looking at prices for 4-6 TB externals, I may just add
another internal. Not this month, the new bed frame and mattress cost over $200.
Crap, I completely forgot bed sheets and twin blankets for my bed…

So Jimmy is already working for Impsec? That explains much. Well Sarah,
Never discount a child, no matter what your feelings are, they can and will
surprise you. I wonder if anyone is going to tell her who that “painted up
whore” is and why judging people like that is NEVER a good idea. Hell,
not knowing your own son’s birthday says a lot about what and who you are.
I would have been surprised if they didn’t consider kidnapping them. I hope
Foxy can calm their tits, they would regret it very quickly. Not a good way to
start diplomacy…
So the computer mommy dearest ‘returned’ might have had ImpSec files
on it? Ooohboy she really messed up.
And daddy dearest wanted to protect a potential security risk (depending
on how they decide play it) with his clearance?
files.. i would say No. you Don’t leave ‘sensitive files’ like that.
that it can and did tho would be,.
(“Oh look, a back door to a secure site.)
daddy was also clueless to this… he was just flaunting nonexistent
power he ‘thought’ he had. (IE: the ‘louie’ telling the Admiral’s
aid How to do their job.! )
That still leaves several ways they could spin that in court.
I’m sure their lawyers will try, but in her case, there’s
hard evidence showing it was her, not Jimmy, that did
it, and with the dad, there were at least 3 witnesses
to his attempt to interfere with a law officers’ duty.
And he trying to use his position to stop the arrest of
his wife.
It was Jimmy’s school laptop, worth a few thousands. Sarah stole it, sold it,
because she thought hurting Jimmy (AKA get him in trouble at school) would
raise Melissa’s status. Instead she got both herself and her hubby arrested,
showed how corrupted he was, and finally proving to her that both her kids
were a far bigger deal than both of them are. Play stupid games, yadda, yadda,
I’m gonna swim against the tide and say Jimmy goofed.
If you are dealing with sensitive files, the computer/file/system
needs to stay secure. Mommy Dearest is in deep for taking the
secure system (Espionage, Treason, trading in state secrets) . But Jimmy is gonna need a refresher on
IT Security. And any files that were on the computer might need
to be considered compromised. AND he may have made the
compound mistake of failing to report the loss. He’s a kid;
he’ll recover.
as PC said,, school laptop. so no Impy stuff.
No Impy data, but some specialized programs. No security risk.
Is direct messaging a function here?
If so, would someone give me a tutorial?
Thanks
that i know of.. No.
butt,, if you ask, i’m sure they will give it. 🙂
Actually, I don’t know how. Websites aren’t really my forte’.
You are an administrator, can you do it?
Maybe set up a forum as well?
Well, how about that? I think we have a forum now – top right of the site.
Can anyone actually use it. We’ll need a moderator and someone to set it up.
Any volunteers?
Rob – the forum and direct messaging are in the “plugins” tab. Can you do anything with them?
I could try to run it, I’ve got to figure out topics and such yet. I tried
to create a test topic and it didn’t take. I’ll have to dig out the WD40
first, I’m so rusty it’s flaking off (cue bad jokes here). I noticed an
“attach file” option, might be handy.
If you have the time, let me know and I’ll make your account Admin.
Bill Mullins has first claim though, if he wants it.
I do want a section for religion and one for politics. Should be interesting.
And the comic, and general, and whatever else would be appropriate.
Ok let me know. I’ll have too much time on my hands soon enough.
You’re an admin now. Click on “The Gentle Wolf” in the upper left, then “Dashboard”.
Your initials are M.M., right?
Yes, thanks.
Wow things have changed, I’ll work on it first thing.
Going to take some reading to get up to speed, I
don’t want to mess up without careful reading. I was
suppose to get help moving things around here,
but my eldest called saying he was sick, and my
youngest had to work. sigh…
I mainly sit in the bedroom with her, keep an eye
on her while she sleeps. So i’m on my ‘puter most
of the time.
Ok. Just WOW on mom! I mean, I might have some sympathy if there were more than a handful of kids.
Or if she was in her dotage. OR if she was strung out.
But plain old “Couldn’t be bothered; wasn’t important”?
Building a case that parenthood should need a license.
Nope, this gal decided that her status was about her husbands
high status, and like any other clueless “karen,” she got schooled.
Grand theft, child abuse, and her “high status” hubby with be
sweeping floors. I half expected Jonathan to go off on her, but
now she’ll find out the charges in court 🙂
A small prayer for the town of McKinney:

Wife is getting worse, she sleeps at least 15 hours a day.
I’m so tired.
I can’t say that I know what you’re going through.
My wife died quickly, in her prime.
In my mind, she will be forever young.
Thanks, I still see that skinny tom-boy I married all those years ago.
I’ve been buying her things to make her smile, A door hanger that
reads “Been annoying each other since 1985,” A cup that has a
couple on it that reads
“I wish I could go back in time so I could meet you sooner” which is
a bit creepy, she was only 17 when I first met her heh. Then Friday
a white gold plated necklace with her birth stone that is inscribed
“I will always love you now and forever” I want her to know that this doesn’t
change anything between us. I’m trying to keep her spirit up, just today
I was helping her back to bed and she must of seen it on my face,
she asked if I was ok, I told I was just thinking. About what she asked,
I said I was thinking about your boobs… I mean about you.
She giggled, it’s good to hear.
I can’t say what’s worse, the long drawn-out or the sudden.
With my sister and my mother it was sudden, one minute
they were alert and talking, the next they were gone. But
with my father and my wife, you watch them deteriorate.
I think the latter, you’re thankful for more time, but you
can see them suffer. I hate to admit it, but there are times
I wish it was over for her. Just to end her suffering. I feel
bad about it, but at the same time I know she can’t handle
pain as well as I can. I keep hoping they legalize the
devil’s cabbage, edibles would help her a lot.
I love this movie, but my one pet peeve is in this clip Mars does not have enough
air mass to blow rocks around much less people or building parts, just huge
clouds of dust.
