I thought he said there would be a beta version in October, but I could be remembering incorrectly.

Unpacking boxes has "probably" set the schedule back a bit

grape_jellyfish · 10-13-2007, 09:18 PM

I have a feeling if it wasn't that it would be something else, guess it will get here when it gets here.

Jim Sachs · 10-14-2007, 12:23 AM

Yes, selling our home of 34 years and moving to oregon has upset the plan of having a Beta ready this month. I just made the final trip from California today, after spending the past few days doing some repairs on the old house which I had promised the new owner. EVERYTHING went wrong. For example, I was driving in the last nail on some roof trim when I heard a pshhhhhhhh sound from inside the wall. I had driven the nail into a water pipe. The next day was taken up finding and repairing the leak. That was pretty typical of everything I tried to do. The house just would not let me go. Since the truck was half packed with unsecured drill presses, band saws, etc., I couldn't drive to get food, and had no phone service to even order a pizza. I finally finished and left at 7 p.m. yesterday, and drove through the night, several pounds lighter, and hallucinating from lack of sleep. Got a couple of hours at rest stops in Northern Calif, then another couple hours when I got here. Then it was off to my cousin's 50th birthday party, and now back home. G'Night.

Sweet dreams....zzzzzZZZZzzzzz....

Marian Nichols · 10-14-2007, 05:38 AM

Oh Jim, I hate all of that for you. I bet it seemed as if the day would never end. Maybe you should have checked the stars or moon or the date to see if there was a curse. Just joking of course, but I bet it felt that way.

cjmaddy · 10-14-2007, 05:51 AM

I get days like that. I usually blame it on Sod's Law!

Marian Nichols · 10-14-2007, 07:37 AM

I have never heard of 'Sod's Law.' But I have heard of 'Murphy's Law.'

cjmaddy · 10-14-2007, 07:41 AM

Same law, different name!

Bob · 10-14-2007, 09:44 AM

Murphy was an optimist!

ESHIREY · 10-14-2007, 02:16 PM

hahahahahahaha.

jmsquared · 10-17-2007, 08:05 PM

Maybe the house was just trying to keep you there Jim! Boy that's a scarey thought.

Jim Sachs · 10-18-2007, 09:57 AM

It sure seemed like it. Anyway, I'm fully moved and back to working on 3.0 now. (Still nowhere near unpacked, though.)

ESHIREY · 10-18-2007, 12:12 PM

Just take care and don't kill your self.

cjmaddy · 10-18-2007, 12:24 PM

Kill himself? .... He's considering immortality, didn't you know!

ESHIREY · 10-18-2007, 09:55 PM

hahahahaha Yeah I know that. I just meant because I know what it's like to try to do something and unpack stuff.

Socrates · 10-22-2007, 07:11 PM

Looks like you got moved out just in time Jim. Whole new round of fires up in the area.

Jim Sachs · 10-22-2007, 09:22 PM

Yes, our old neighborhood is currently evacuated.

Surferminn · 10-23-2007, 12:05 AM

My brother lives in San Diego and he said that his neighborhood has been told to evacuate. So tonight when I called him, he was busy packing and will be spending the night at the church.

Jim Sachs · 10-23-2007, 12:59 AM

My wife's sister and her husband are also evacuating from North San Diego.

The map of burned areas at Lake Arrowhead seems to include the homes of both my daughter's best friends. This is unconfirmed, as no one is allowed in the area. The last time this happened, our street was reported lost to fire but the report was totally false.

Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think. "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." /Robert Oppenheimer on witnessing the first thermonuclear detonation in history.
