Book - David Drake "Queen of Demons" - Book 2 Isle Series

1/3/2008
Movie - National Treasure: Book of Secrets. OK, throw out the logic and the winks at the camera and you have a very entertaining movie. The critics aren't too keen on it but the heck with them. The clues are even unbelievable. The logic jumps are too far to be even partially believable. So what? Go fo the ride and enjoy. It's no Indiana Jones but Nicolas Cage actually has some personality in these movies and that makes up for a lot of things.

Book - Dean Koontz "Cold Fire" - A man who suddenly drops everything when told to save a life by some mysterious entity. Is it God or something else?

This Past Weekend

Kind of frustrating weekend. The horse trailer was damaged by the South Valley Disposal truck sometime in the last few days. The jack stand, the dressing room door, part of the door frame and side and the roof were damaged. Tire tracks lead right from the dumpster to the trailer.

I was trying to upgrade the Dell 350 main hard drive. I imaged the drive onto a new Seagate tat had been used as a secondary drive previously. All went well until a second reboot was done. Could not access the operating system. Not good. I tried twice. Finally, I had to give up and use the new drive as a permanent second hard drive and moved My Documents to the new drive. I have Acronis doing daily backups to the Seagate external drive.

Dillon is going to be a life long project. He continues to beat up Jackie and show aggression to other dogs. Indy has a slight problem on right front. Tanner's foot is doing much better. Pali is being used as a lesson horse.
