Lundy Says-Amusing Info from Lundy Wilder

A court in France has awarded a man 311.85 euros as the cost of the pre-loaded software on his new Acer laptop. His case was that he didn't want the software but that he had no choice but to buy it. Could have implications? http://www.channelregister.co.uk/2007/09/26/acer_laptop_microsoft_windows_french_ruling/ (312 euros = £220 = $440) (from webmasterworld comments) New Age Stone Builders worked both Sat and Sunday on new house. I have photos but they are still on my camera. Shrimp Fest is coming up. This weekend, we loaded about 300 previous years posters in cardboard tubes. And discovered that this years posters will not fit in the remaining 800 tubes I ordered due to two things, ...poster printer did not roll posters like they did last year, and tube co lied in specs about inside diameter of tube....so, I think all posters will have to be unrolled and re-rolled to fit in the tubes..if we can get some high school volunteers on Wed, it will be easier to do that than re-order tube

I wrote a big 'ole post last night, all text and it is gone today ! (note, it is back now, more weird) While I investigate that, you can use the corporate BS generator to get ready for your next meeting.

I talked to a number of possible local house vendor participants today. Kitchens, countertops, appliances, fastners like big hulky hardware, etc...went to phone co and got a handful of DSLfilters for other phone and fax lines (Not for new house). Millie was 25 min late for lunch. I went on and ordered and my food arrived when she did. She is usually late so I took stuff to work on while I waited. Ate at the new restaurant at The Wharf...Villagio, owned by Ginny Lane (restaurant) owners. It was good. Sorta neuvo Italian. Big tile covered visible oven...for the fancy pizzas. Would be pricey at dinner....no doubt about it. Lunch for one ran almost 20 bucks w/ ice tea and tip and tax. I took some photos for web so it could be a biz expense. I'll do a little review later tonight on one of my websites. She had been there a couple times before, so I got good feedback from her w/out me having to spend so much to try different stuff. Found a place that sells American Greeting cards for 10/

In the UK there is an organization that sends volunteers into the prison system to teach needlework to inmates who work on projects in their cramped cells to be sold thru the Fine Cell Work website. It is called FineCellWork Lady Anne Tree was a prison visitor for twenty-five years, entertainments officer at HMP Wandsworth and a prison inspector, she founded Fine Cell Work and continues to contribute her wisdom and support to the charity. Both men and women participate and by looking around their website, it looks like certain companies may donate some supplies. The laws had to be changed to allow these people to earn money outside of the penal system. Most send the earnings home to children and spouses and save some for living expenses if and when they are released. Website includes pillows, rugs, quilts, bags and takes private commissions. Now a former prisoner (15 yrs) who learned needle crafts in prison is out and trying to get a similar program stated in the States. His gallery sh

Today I think I will have to make a decision on my windows and doors. I am waiting on a cqll back from the Swift's Supply Weathershield Window fellow, Joey. I'd have already talked to him but for the fact that occasionally my cell just doesn't ring, and the called leaves a message and immediately the phone does seem to have enuf signal to give me the "yo, message left" beep-beep. Patty w/ Vetter has given me what I think is a really fabo price. Esp considering they will be impact glass (think car windshield) . gotta continue later...

Finally....several days late, it came this afternoon. It looks wonderful. I put a bunch of photos on ConcreteCottage.com but I will put one here. I tried making a little movie of the first block it picked up, i just used my regular camera, not a movie camera, so will see if I can upload it. Well , it looks like it uploaded. This is an unedited video, so no telling what it is like. I have not seen it yet. It says it is uploaded but processing. I think Blogger automatically changes it from one file type to another...OPPS--no audio, not sure why...maybe my digital camera doesn't do audio, but I thought most did now. I know my older ones did. Also, excuse the sideways shot of grass in the middle :o) Guess I dont know where the off button is.

Bike Dispenser s for metropolitan areas....park that car or get off a train, bus, etc and slide your card to get a bike, return it to the same or any other bike dispenser location when you are thru. Gulf Shores wants to re-do the beach front area, they want to re-route the hwy....this would be perfect for resort area pedaling. Oh wait....salt air....rust.....
