My CD/DVDrom has officially shot craps. Unless I figure out how to fix it, there will be no ripping CDs for me. Woe.
Another sure sign of old age for Gringo. The mind is still there (if cantankerous), but the body is starting to go.

I made spaghetti for dinner since Dad was gone. The Chief insisted that he attend the City Council meeting, but wouldn't say why. Turns out they gave him a plaque for 20 years of dedicated service. Three years late, but it's the thought that counts.

For twenty-three years of dedicated service, food should come with the plaque.
