What other things do you do?

I thought that said " Love to repress things". lol. If that was so, you'd be a therapist's dream.

@submarinepainter...I was hoping your SN was just to throw us off from what you really do.

Golf...the only four letter swear word you can get away with saying anywhere.

I can golf! Don't ever get the time to do so..but I can golf! I'm no fun to play putt-putt with. I always act like I'm on a PGA tour..haha. I blame my grandfather, he was a starter for a golf course for a decade or two, so that resulted me learning how to play.

Bonus quote! - If you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron. - Lee Trevino ( The golfers among us will get it..)

So here it is: I have an ASUS laptop that started out as a Windows 8 machine. It has been upgraded to Windows 10. Since the laptop came with the embedded COA rather than the COA one a sticker. I installed Ubuntu on 10+ computers but this one does not want to cooperate. It seems that there is an problem with computers that have the embedded COA. Any suggestions? Mike

Sorry I have been busy and did not reply sooner [looks like you got it squared away now tho] but I have not messed with Ubunutu in a while since they changed some of the underlining structure that I did not agree with but thats getting into another topic. But since I have stepped out of that I would not be able to help you much unless your looking at some of the older copies of Ubuntu.

What else do I do?

I love my wife. I like to golf. I like to repurpose things. I love to hunt yard sales and use it or sell it to turn it into cash. I like to drink beer and wine and scotch. I love my dogs. I love to take the doggies to the doggie park and watch them enjoy themselves. I love to look at the stars, and I really like to see a shooting star. I like eating a pineapple I grew. I do so many things and I love my life. I believe if everyone was as happy with life as I am, there would be a whole lot less trouble in the world.

Life story ahead...this is your warning to just bypass this now.

Being happy with life....yea thats a true statement and I thought I was happy with life before things took a down turn. I went into deep depression and during this time my Father came down with Cancer. After all the medical stuff with my spine and my Father I hit rock bottom and fell through the floor. Just one day I woke up and was messing with my dog [Layla] an not sure how to explain it but I woke up. Being sad/happy is the state of mind I was putting my self in and I was only looking at the down side and I got mad at my self for letting things get me down like that and so I started fighting and did double time on my therapy and getting up and moving and over all just pushing my self. Even tho I still have my "days" its always best to have a "happy day"

I read and re-read this and cut out a good bit of it and even thought about hitting cancel but this website gets indexed by google all the time so hey who knows maybe someone will read this who could use it...that and I went into my story alot on my blog

Since the downturn in the economy, I have learned that decent jobs without special, marketable skills are non-existent. So I decided this past summer to go back to school. I am now study clinical lab technology in the hopes of a decent job a couple years from now.

I spent the first twenty years working in electronic security but got to the point where I no longer believed in it and couldn't stand to do it. During that time I acquired an AS and BS degree but neither are marketable. I just studied what I wanted to, when I wanted to.

I was working a part time job but ended that this past week. Now it is time to ramp up some of my other interests to make more moolah. For me, that is storage auctions and making leather items that I sell online. I think most people are now realizing that it is **** hard to keep the lights on at times

Yea I have a pure yorkie and I did not pick her..she picked me. A breeder had a litter that the mother rejected and all but two of the pups died. My father got them for free as they [would not make it] and they where going to be family dogs. My Mother took care of the one and me the other as they where 2 days old and needed alot of hands on and so when she opened her eyes she was like nope your my human and would follow me anywhere and get real upset when I left to go somewhere....she grew on me in short so she became "my dog"
