Cars, Security & a Peek into my Life

Have You Seen My Golf Swing?

Here is is, look:

Been seeing people in collered shirts out and about, happy golf season to you if you play.  I’m at the Andy Bathgate Driving Range , yes as in the ex-Leaf, he’s really nice.

I like going to the driving range once a year, not actually playing four hours aaaaaare you kidding me.

Plus I can’t be out in the sun that long… get ready for sunscreen reminders from me to you, I’m like a future person – I wear it every day, even in the winter, minimum 30 SPF.

But did you also notice sun-burned people walking around Monday? It’s not like it used to be, the sun. One day we’ll regularly wear clothes with sun protection woven in.

Happy Birthday OOK Incorporated

My company, OOK Incorporated, is 3 today!

I bootstrap the crap out of it; it’s the only way I think. Throwing money at something seldom makes it better, necessity is the mother and all that. That’s why I’m always wary when someone hands me a business card but has no elevator pitch … that’s $30 you could have left in the bank, earning interest, la la la.

OOK’s first financial transaction was writing a cheque to charity, because one of my favourite sayings is, “start as you mean to go on”. The sun came out strong the exact second I typed that.

The goal is a third / third / third…. that’s taxes / me / charity… to divide up earnings.

Anyway, I’m rambling becasue I’m like a proud parent here, and I’ll leave you with this…

OOK —–> oh oh kay, all capitals, it’s an acronym for … wait for it …

Order Of Keri.

I know.

A New and Better Header, Look Up

Until now, it looked like this:

Then I added this 9 photo collage.

This post is more for me than you, for documenting purposes.

Have a good evening!

Oh wait, one more thing… look at this weirdness.

My header code area is completely empty in the editor, yet I still have a header.

I clear my cache and the code comes back, but only once because if I click away and return, it’s gone again.

Anyone?

I’ve Had a Cel for 13 Years

Bought a new one last week, another Blackberry Bold 9870.

Here’s my history since the beginning.

I miss the flip action. That StarTAC flipped close AMAZING, and you bet I wore that belt clip like a boss.

(there’s one missing above, between the two flips on the left, a Motorola V60 )

Maybe I’ll make a video, “My Electronics History”… because look, I have endless amounts of this stuff:

That’s a Sharp IQ-7200 from 1989, and my very first organizer.  See that?  64kb.

I should put some batteries in, see what kind of dossiers little-me had going on back then.

I’ve had a Mac for 25+ years.

In the mid 90s I was “that Mac girl”, making iron-on t-shirts that read, “You can take my Mac, when you peel my cold dead hands off the mouse”… if I ever find a photo, I’ll blog it.
