Good Morning,  !
It's Thursday, November 18, 2010

When I looked at the page count on Triangle B tonight, I was 
quite surprised. I had thought that probably 20% of the readers 
liked horses and would go have a quick look. I was way off in
my guessing. Not even one percent!

Worried, that you might fall in love with a horse like Thriller
and then be told by the landlord, that you can't keep horses
in your top floor apartment?

Well, I can't keep horses here either. I'd have the space, but
the ridiculously high water bills make it unthinkable. I still
enjoy seeing them, though, and never turn down an invitation
to go riding.

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
goes to Principal Liz Seabury at Delmar Highschool, California

Dear Webby
Here is a great International Bonehead award candidate from 
my home town!!  You really can't fix stupid...not even in high 
school principals!

Principal forbids ambulance to drive on football field track
Del Mar High School's principal is under fire after blocking 
an ambulance from driving onto the school's track to reach a 
14-year-old who suffered a concussion during a football game.

Emergency workers had to haul a gurney 75 yards downfield 
to where Keanu Gallardo lay after suffering a blow to his 
neck and helmet near the end of Del Mar's frosh-soph game 
on Oct. 29.

The boy's mother, Josephine Amaya, is livid and waiting for 
a formal apology from the school and the Campbell Union 
High School District. She said her son has suffered from 
headaches and neck pain and is being watched for potential 
brain damage.

It isn't clear whether the delay had any impact on Keanu's 
health, but medical experts say sometimes every second 
counts when a player, especially a teenager, is crumpled 
on the field with a head injury.

Firefighters and paramedics were "clearly agitated and 
angry" about the decision to block the ambulance.

"I'm aghast at the decision that was made," said Matthew Dean, 
a Campbell Union High School board member. "The answer is 
real simple. A field is replaceable. A child's life is not."

Principal Liz Seabury said Monday that she was only following orders.
"I was told not to let vehicles onto the field," she said.

The Del Mar Dons were trailing Prospect 20-6 with minutes to go. 
Keanu dashed 10 yards when another player's helmet slammed 
into his neck. As he went down, he was hit again, this time on 
his helmet, witnesses said.

With the wide tires used by today's ambulances, the track 
around the field or even the field itself would not have
suffered any damage whatsoever. The pounds per square inch
pressure is comparable to a lawn mower.
------------
I have seen the big BK117 twin jet high speed ambulance 
helicopters land on the high school soccer field across the 
street. On the ground, their 5 ton weight is carried on those 
pipes, that they use for skids. They never left a mark on 
the field.

With a wheeled ambuance there would be even less legitimate
concern. She probably just wanted to throw her weight around
and needs to be replaced.

Re: Lost Firefox tabs and history

Dear Webby
I updated Crap Cleaner and ran it first thing after starting 
the computer, instead of as usual when I get close to locking
up, and after that, when I started FireFox, all the previous tabs
and history were gone! Is there a way to get them back?
And what should I do to rpevent that?
David
---------------------
Dear David
Crap Cleaner is not really intended to be run first thing, but as
a rescue, when your RAM is too cluttered with crap.
When you leave FireFox open, it won't touch any of it's
tabs or history.

If you run CrapCleaner, while FireFox is off, make 100% sure
that you go into it's settings, Applications, and take ALL the
checkmarks off the Firefox section, unless you want to hide
your tracks. If you have those checkmarks on, neither your 
spouse nor the CIA can get your tabs and history back.

Yes, I know, it causes a very sick and devastating feeling
to loose all that. I found out the hard way too. 

So, either leave FireFox open, or go and make sure that those 
checkmarks are OFF. 

Have FUN!

 has been bringing drawings home from
kindergarten everyday since it started.  Each day mother 
admires the pictures and hangs them on the refrigerator. 

One thing starts bothering her though.  only 
uses black and browns for his drawings. Fearing a
problem with her young child and not wanting to make it 
worse, she decides to take  to a child psychologist.

The psychologist delicately goes to work. He gives  a
battery of psychological tests. He chats with . Everything
seems perfectly normal. Everyday for two weeks, the tests
continue. Yet everyday, little  continues to bring home
drawings in only black and brown. 

Frustrated at not being able to get to the root of the problem 
and fearful that something is terrible wrong, the child psychologist 
decides to give little  some paper and a box of 
crayons and observe what happens.

 opens the box of crayons and says "Oh WOW! A new
box of crayons! At school we only have old boxes. The only ones
left in mine are black and brown!"

Start Christmas Cactus for Next Year's Gifts
It is a little too late for this holiday season but you can 
get started for next year. I was in a store the other day 
and glanced at the price of their Christmas Cactus. 
To pay $134.00 for a gift that will cost me max $2.00 
is crazy. If you start now, you can save.

Take a piece of your own Christmas cactus and put it 
in a small pot (2 inch) with good potting soil. As the 
year goes on fertilize with liquid fertilizer once a month. 
Once it starts growing, repot to 3 inch and so on, but 
remember they do better root bound. By the holidays 
next year, you should have a good size plant(s) to 
give as gifts.

The secret for good growth and lots of blossoms with those
is wind. They need the wind to pump moisture and nutrients
up to the leaves. Just like trees, the more wind they get, 
the tougher and stronger they get. There is no need to bring
them in because of a storm. 

To get them to look like this 
(Click through for larger picture), dad hangs them from post
supported beams, that are 8 feet above ground, all frost free
months, then in an unheated lean-to until a week or two before
Christmas. Hanging them under the eaves or from balcony
ceilings works well too.

A single leaf broken off one around Christmas and suspended
in a glass of water, will have created enough roots for 
successful potting around Valentines Day.
Have FUN!

 The customer in the Italian restaurant was so pleased that he
asked to speak to the chef. The owner proudly led him into the
kitchen and introduced him to the chef.

"Your veal parmigiana was superb," the customer said. "I just
spent a month in Italy, and yours is better than any I ever had
over there."

"Naturally," the chef said. "Over there, they use domestic
cheese. Ours is imported."
