Subj : Re: Various Things (2) To : Barry Martin From : Daryl Stout Date : Wed Mar 01 2023 12:42:00 Barry, BM> If those old man using the walker and rooler skates can do it..... That's the entertainment at the nursing home each night. BM> Everyone brings happiness to this room: some by coming, some by BM> leaving! You're not getting rid of me that easily. BM> And the Devil made Zoom Meetings! He also created HMO's. BM> A few years ago I had left for a doctor's appointment -- was cold and BM> raining when I left. (Don't recall the temperature.) About a mile and BM> the rain is starting to get a little hard; bit further and really hard! BM> Maybe I can go the three more miles to my appointment and by the time BM> I'm done things will be cleared? ...About a minute later changed my BM> mind -- now to figure a flat way back home: want to avoid hills! A fellow ham radio operator went to visit his son in the hospital, and when he came out, it was snowing to beat the band. He had to carefully navigate on the way home...he noted that numerous vehicles were running off the road into the median and into the ditch!! BM> Right, and from what I've heard some colour printers won't let one BM> print using just black if the colour cartidges are out/missing. I BM> think my printer is one of those; just ordered Yellow and Cyan over the BM> weekend. Don't need either quite yet and was going to wait but saw BM> something which changed my mind: one of my sources was out of stock BM> (really??!! this is not a garage company) and Amazon was '10 left' in BM> one colour and '6 left' in the other. Ayeee!! We have a limited supply...and when we run out, we'll go to the back room, and get another limited supply. :P BM> If there was some sort of (worthwhile) buy-back for the barely-used BM> printer it might be worth considering. Personally I have a hard time BM> tossing away an otherwise perfectly good piece of hardware. I get a $1 credit (big deal) for each cartridge I take back to Office Depot. When they charge $25 for a black and $35 for a multi-color print cartridge, you can see who's making out like a bandit. BM> No problems with the cartridge drying out? Not lately. I can run a test pattern to moisten it back up. Besides, paper and ink are expensive!! DS> Maybe the air bladders in the cartridges were weak. :P BM> Kegel exercises! Do they have to be naked to do it?? :P Daryl ....
