Have you been using the beta OS? I'm not wild about the proposed design, but I've also not seen a working copy of it yet.

I haven't, but I don't think I'd like it on a desktop/laptop. It's fine for a tablet or smartphone, but I want a good old fashioned desktop when I need it. I was perfectly happy with 7. I have an iPhone that can do all the flashy glitzy Millennial stuff.

Another big strike against it for me is that *CAUTION: NERD STUFF AHEAD*

Windows 8 is trying to limit editing the HOSTS file to block ads, trackers, etc. That's huge for me. One of the first things I do when I get a new computer is go here and download their HOSTS file. That's a great way to block 90 percent of all the nasties that can end up on your computer.

I shared this with the Children of Yost (Michigan student section) on Facebook. They've brought up the idea of a video. I'm not sure that I have the time to make that happen.

And it's easy enough to sub your most hated opposing coach for 'Rico' in the lyric I wrote. I used his name because I hate him, and last season we had a game where he spent 10 minutes having a fit at the ref.

I don't either but I'm going to look into it and make some calls.

The title did not ring a bell with me, but when i went to YouTube and listened to it, I knew that I had heard it before.

Not kidding. I might have heard it on TV but then again I wouldn't know what I was listening to.

I don't live under a rock it's just that I rarely listen to media that plays top 40.

I just listenend to the song via iPhone and I didn't recognize it. Catchy little tune though.

MarkEagleUSA, call me maybe? :p

So, you didn't watch a minute of the Olympics this summer? And weren't subjected to the US Olympic swim team's parody video of it that they showed 146 times over the first few days?

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #155: Back to School

One of my co-workers who sits behind me is 9 months pregnant and her due date is today. She wants to go into labor so the doctor doesn't make her have a C-section. So a bunch of us got together to walk the stairs with her. We work on the 10th floor. We walked down to 1, then up to 10. And I almost didn't make it. I was like "I'll be ****ed if a 9-month pregnant woman is going to do this and not me!!!!" :mad::)

It was actually a good workout. I should look into doing that every day.

This is Sasha's favorite song. I get to sing it with her every day. She has changed the lyrics some and sings
"Before you came into my heart I missed you so bad. I missed you so so bad."
I have to chase her out of the room so she doesn't see me cry :)

In fact, I am tearing up now just typing it...
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #155: Back to School

Well the site crashed like I expected, but it went on longer than I expected. By the time it was back, I missed out on the green KCCO and the BFM3D. But I still got my hands on a black KCCO, thanks to them being hidden.

I hadn't seen Gangnam Style until last night when someone suggested that alternate lyrics to it should be my next challenge. I had to go look up what it was.

I'm ok with it being used as long as I get credit. I'm working with the Yost kids on a video I hope. I'm not sure how I'd feel if a video ended up on Youtube or similar with my lyrics that I hadn't been a part of though.
