A good fit

Last night I was awake most of the night.  Not from caffeine, either.

Today we went to the airport, and I sat in "Tweety" for the first time.  I knew that Lee was asking more than he thought he could get (although I don't know how much more), but its history makes sense, and we have seen how he takes care of it, and Frank has assembled and disassembled it with him, and we would be buying into an already-established setup with the airport and the club. On paper, the SGS 1-34 is what I would like to be flying, with no other sailplanes in the running. Still, I was prepared to back away if the sitting-in-the-cockpit experience was anything but good.

Well, it was good.   I am comfortable there, and I can see fine, and I like it.

So, we put down a deposit, and I will be looking into the paperwork to actually make the sale.

Time Machine and Parallels--Why I excluded Parallels from Time Machine

Unfortunately, I didn't do it soon enough.   The iMac tech support person had me delete all old backups, start again with just a couple, but Parallels filled up the Time Machine disk again.    So now, I guess it will keep the old big ones, but  maybe it will work.

What I worry about is old stuff that might have gotten corrupted but I don't notice, and the earlier versions are no longer there.

Well, the test version we fixed on the Big November Birthday day was great, but the Thanksgiving version was not.   So, next year, it's on the stove you go.

BUT we did figure out there is no reason to ever not fix tater skins.

Have you seen this video? "Cockaboody"
