Lord: why not george? geo: thank you anyway Lord. Lord: any time george. anyway, this has been a long day after a short night of sleep. went into kitchen to refresh my yeti mug and felt someone stepping on my heels. turn around to see who, it was my butt dragging. 8=D will put off getting lt back to booting 6.8 tomorrow. i have not run 'grub-mkconfg' for a few years, just hope i do not have problems with that too. btw, what area of western side do you roam? -- peace out. -+- Tired of having your microsoft os hacked?
