Thread: Windows 10 Update Heads UP

  1. #51
    To gman, Nick and zswobbie1,

    Thank you for a very lively discussion. I have enjoyed the repartee very much and appreciate the different points of view. Its good to be able to have a spirited debate without that debate descending into a slagging match.
    Hopefully we can have others on this forum.
    Tom Thank you also for your perseverance with this thread and letting it run.

    Regards
    Paul

    It seems that most of us here or in our 60's!

    Maybe we should have our own 'Old Farts Flying Club'Forum?

    Aged 62years & 3years. Acts somewhere between 3 & 5 most of the time. Still trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up.

    Note: Growing old is compulsory, growing up is optional.

    Count me in, it is refreshing to have a discussion with mature, intelligent and knowledgeable "old farts."

    I can sell you some tinfoil!

    http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...=1#post1088700

    I might be able to give you some instructions on how to make one and get the size correct. So many people wearing tinfoil hats do not have them properly tightened.

    I might take you up on that offer. I haven't been getting out much...the voices keep telling me..."Stay home and clean the guns"!!!!

    What do you mean you don't get out much. I take it that the scooter in your avatar is a runner. Its summer in your neck of the woods isn't it? Unfortunately down here (NZ) its winter and while we don't have snow on the ground like you get, it is still a bit cool at times and ice can be a problem.

    Just remember, don't argue with the voices, if you loose anything could happen.

    Funny thing...that's not my bike in the Avatar. That one was a Saxon chopper I built for a good friend.

    Mine is an '04 FLSTFI. I did all the work...paint, engine build, suspension tuning etc.
    Makes 130 HP. This pic is actually from before I went to the S&S top end.

    The plate is HOG5250...look up 5250 in California State Mental Health Code...lol




    Yeah...summer here and hot, but I've had my share of riding ice and snow living here. Riding here is very similar to Tongariro Park. I'm at 2200 M elevation, but the mountains out my back door go straight up to 4000 M. I try to get the bike out every other day. Usually ride up to town...it's a nice break from work. Right now the deer are thicker than flies...migration season.

    The high country still has 10 Meters of snow in many places, so getting up into the canyons and passes is impossible. Right now there is water everywhere...runoff.

    There are three signs of madness, they say. First is talking to yourself. Second is arguing with yourself. The third and final stage is losing these arguments. Will everyone please take care?

    What started as a conversation about an innocuous update has degraded into this sordid tale. Hysterical....lol

    It's amazing how discussions about computers dissolve into utter chaos. You need a computer to keep track of it all.

    Being one of the old farts, if this thread is descending into chaos maybe it is time to close it. If there is more pertinent discussion I will leave open. Better it goes into the sunset. Thanks for everyone's input.

    I've deleted my previous "non pertinent" and "non relevant" and "chaotic" post here.

    Can't speak for others. Seems to me an innocent enough diversion from the serious to the lighter side of things.

    Not sure why you deleted the post Gray Eagle, it only contributed to the chaos. I thought it was a good contribution. As Gordon says the thread is a good break from the serious.

    I guess I was confused and taking your previous comment personal.

    If it's okay I will repost it.
