Figuring

Very unhappy with new tablet. Buyer's remorse in effect. What to do? Primarily, it won't play back downloaded Amazon music files offline. Got the thing for the purpose of playing downloaded movies. That goes through. But the audio files do not. The unit is 'rooted' it says.

So I tried an unrooting app. Did not work. Don't know what to do. Always joke: find a kid. I may have to pay for advise.

With this blog too. Different behaviors on different devices. The pad keyboard seems unstable; difficulty posting photos on the phone. At coffee, just staring at the floor. No one here. Saturday night.

Aha... there is a computing guy here. Maybe approach him. Free advise? Assume nothing. He was unable to help but ran into someone else. We get together tomorrow.

Study Up

NGO 5033. Hubble take. Upon seeing multo stars this morning without my glasses. Made such commentary on Facebook. Curious, as ever, to see what sort of response will occur.

FLASH. FLASH. FLASH.

The woman I've been cybernauting with, the one posted previously, just asked me money!!! Another experience of this chain of events. They're not even Nigerians. Terminate that proto. Just like that. There's just no telling. Unbelievable.

Just was reminded of getting together with ex-wife after long separation. She wanted a steak. I'm telling you... it takes all kinds. Kind of hungry myself. Pick up some sausage. Have pasta and sauce. Reading this. Should be a restful afternoon. Had thought about going to Tempe. Use my transit pass. Find some music. Just might be a waste of time.

Far to Go

Problem with laptop. Downloads Amazon movies OK and plays just fine offline but not music. Download happens. Offline no go. Unit is 'rooted' by default. Coding issue, I presume. Found out about app toward unrooting. No go. Need to find a kid.

Here's a wafting along Verde River.

La rivière Verde. In ye older vernacular.

Hey... there's a kid here at Starbucks.

My cell phone customer service lady.

Here She Is

In Key West. Very demure. Strange, the interaction. Truncated.

We're getting along but too much thinking, not feeling, things out.

Take Fort Verde

Took a ride up to Verde Valley. Seeking color. Expanse.

Back and forth of a day. Bought state park pass. Deal!

Here's parade ground at the fort. Refurbished. Decor too.

Would like to ride an Appaloosa, pack a mule from here.

Float a Bond

Have completely forgot again about this here blog! Presently in hot tub, what have you got to say for yourself, Ducky?

Not much. Perhaps it's because I'm entertaining a cyber-woman on Twitter. Intriquing. Do not wish to delude myself. Chatting.

Oh, Henry

Just love this print. The Noble Train. From Ticonderoga to Boston. Dorchester Heights. 1776-77. I wish I had known when I visited in 1973. Would like to have seen the view. Vamoosed the British fleet. Made use of it for Twitter profile. Keep my bearings and perspective as I haul the load.

Political posturing is a bane of patriots. Who can be affined but those who were there? Of questionable relation, Henry Knox a good role model for skill and loyalty. A book dealer in Boston, he affiliated with the libertarians and taught himself artillery ballistics from books.

Here's the Old Man himself. Was at Valley Forge too. All the way through to Yorktown. Was first Secretary of War of Constitutional government. A stout Federalist. Remarkable.

His persona came up in a tweet. Dealing with current congressional ineptitude and executive harassment. Just had a look at this article. You just can't keep up. I'm holding steady with the Donald. I give him my best. 

Well, I need to get far from the madding crowd. Thought to go to Tonopah to watch the sunset but has gotten too late in afternoon. The traffic on I-10 is murder. Think I'll go to the Estrellas. Break in some new boots. Pictures forthcoming.
