Regarding http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/06/08/1715239 about abandoned BLOGs. I’m too busy Twittering.
Actually the true spelling is “tittering” as I’m getting giggles over the whole socializing silliness and fads. I’m 49 and I’ve seen it or read it all before!

I’m not sure but with nothing useful on my BLOG (well not a lot of entries of useful anyway) I wonder if the comments on the ‘McCoy’ (Star Trek) entry is persons doing it for the link to a SPAM or some such thing. I checked both of them out and they seem fine.
Well, I’m busy reorganizing and custom building a new set of machines, sort of like the kit-bashing of Model Railroading ‘fame’ where the parts are doing a musical chair like thing where I select parts from what I have and put in another case and assemble the machines to newer design specifications of mine.
Prompted by a bargain I got on EBay: a motherboard, with good parts too, that supports a chip I got recently better than the motherboard I have now!

Just seeing if Windows Live Writer interfaces with WordPress BLOG.
Anyway, I haven’t been writing much in my BLOGS due to how bad my emotions are these days.
I am feeling so sick being stuck taking care of the guy I’m renting a room from because IHSS cannot provide the 12/16 hour attendant he needs. Or is it assistant? And my being on SSI a lousy $870 a month with threatened REDUCTIONS by government budget crisis whereas the wealthy don’t see reductions in their services and incomes from the government as they are not dependent on them and even in some case don’t pay any taxes at all (both income or business taxes too). I have a degree in accounting plus real estate experience so I know about taxes.
I have a hard time keeping these ‘job’ titles straight as they refer to different levels of care of a disabled person like I did with my parents. For example: Dad. I was administering his pills, etc. so was the a ‘caretaker’? Mom fed and bathed herself for the most part but heavily relied on me to take her shopping and do dishes, etc.
So ‘caretaker’ doesn’t fit the definition as that to me means having some sort of ‘take charge’ kind of status whereas mom was running the show, paying bills, doing her own pills, etc.
So I’m ‘dying’ here. I can’t do anything as I have to remain at home most of the time to serve Rick. I’m so sick of it.

I noted earlier I have 4 BLOG accounts at various locations. Nope, it’s now 7 – see my randolph-garrett.com site.
I also note that the new domain is a recent thing BUT I avoided it as it opened a Pandora’s Box of things to learn that I need to avoid doing and focus on ONE subject to get me employable.

Hi! Having a wonderful time! Wish you were here (reading this BLOG).
I have to consolidate my BLOG’s to one and manage my time but I cannot find easy BLOG backup to the local hard-drive even in BLOG software like MS Live writer (crappy anyway) and even BLOGGER site doesn’t do it?
Too much research, I need to focus on getting a job ASAP w/o current qualifications and ‘too’ many disabilities and refusals on employers part to hire me because of them like working temp jobs – NON will make reasonable accommodations so I’m out of luck.

*sigh*
Yet another blog site. I was avoiding Blogger as I already have 4 blogs: MS Live, Ebay seller, Yahoo 360, and Tripod. Not counting the MS Live one where I lost the login information.
I don’t blog that much at all as I need to focus on getting a job and updating my programming experience (was ‘C’ on UNIX and need C++ (I prefer) on MS Windows)
Ug, just saying that makes me want to throw up about Windows.
Hey, it’s were all the jobs are and when I last did UNIX (1994 & laid off when company went down the tubes) UNIX jobs were dying rapidly though that is the year LINUX started going upwards in use!
