Oh man, just smoker grilled some salmon. It was good and I am stuffed.

Been trying to eat the right stuff to avoid hormones, insecticides, etc. by looking reading labels and looking at orgainc, grass fed, free range. and as few additives as possible.
This stuff is expensive! Think I am going to have to start doing the fasting thing, not only because it's healthier, but to save money on food!
The more unhealthy stuff in food, the less it costs.

We made it there this morning!

Back in Baca Raton all safe and sound now. Lots more pictures to come once I get home. I have heard that people think my brother and I look a little alike.

We had a WONDERFUL visit with my friends in big pine key. I really think he is my brother my parents never knew. He and my brother are now like best buds. It was like a family reunion. Just great folks. His house had 3 feet of muck from the hurricane just two years ago. He is a master craftsman, and can fix anything.

I update graphics that display messages on our Kiosk screens. They are hosted on a web server that is on our AS400. Way back when I started they set me up by sharing the folder the images are kept. The company chaplin does a Word of the Day bible verse that is displayed on the kiosk and updated every day.

A few months ago access via the DNS name was firewalled and did not provide SMB file sharing connections. Know it was firewalled because the server just didn't answer. Went to using the IP address.

Yesterday someone, no one admits to making any changes, the IP address started denying connection. My best guess is someone turned off SMB sharing. It was denying acces not not answering. I was the only one using SMB on that server and it was restricted to just that one folder for the kiosk message graphics.

After getting no help. No body claims to know what is going on. Grrrrrrr. For spite hacked the AS400 file system and uploaded today's graphic anyway. Ha ha ha haaaa (maniacal laugh)

As we pulled up at my friends house I shot this from the seat of my car, with the engine running.

Stijn!!



Getting Gas in Jupiter, Fl. About to head to key west. The two cranes walk up and admire my 911, both of them then make a mating call that makes a peacock sound like a humming bird for loudness, and walk off. Only in Florida.

If they're out of season, and he shot it from his car, then he's a Porscher!

We met this guy at random. He is a local Sherrif a deputy. Real true cop. The beard there is a fake, made of Mascara. Funny guy, that we bonded with. Too much fun.

Phew. Back home safe and sound. No problems except lots of bug splats, and dirty wheels.

I completely disassembled the rear (drum :roll eyes brakes on the Z. One wheel cylinder was seized, and after coaxing, I see rust on piston and inside of the housing. The other wheel cylinder had a lot of gummy brown “brake fluid” inside of it, iAy caramba!
