I've been using the same coffee cup almost every day for the last 50+ years.

Yup, I'm old.

Yup, and wasn't the brand bought by VW? Mine was made by International Harvester. So not really that closely related, except maybe for body shape.

Actually, Scout vehicles do exist. I have one. It was made in 1967.

77: yes, I feel old, but only sometimes. Mostly in the early morning.

I don't understand the copper reference.

An example of great parenting. Kid asks question, answer question honestly and briefly. No need for a lecture.

I painted the radio antenna on my Subaru florescent orange for that very reason. I probably should have used plastic flowers instead.

Microsoft Access. I have one database that I need that's written in Access, and although I suppose I could convert it to some other system it would be a chore and I'm not that driven to make the change.

I've moved almost everything else onto Linux.

The market has given up about one year's gain, so people who have held diversified portfolios for longer than that haven't really "lost"anything.

Yet.

I'm going to a local protest tomorrow. If someone asks why I'm there I'll just say Jennie told me.

I like winter better. Things around here are often on fire during the summer.
