Ooo. It worked. Whee!

I suppose I should explain what I'm doing... I just posted that pic from inside of my photohosting service without using my MT blog software. For some kinds of posts, that will simplify the process (and speed it up).

Simple pleasures - glad you're having fun ;-)

So I read the post and think *?*. Maybe reading the comments will help. After all, I am lost on all the weapons posts anyway and often times my only clue is in the comments. First comment - no help. Second comment - great, my next weakest area - computerese. Third comment - ahhh, there's someone who will appreciate the whole exchange - Mornin' Barb!

Heh. Maggie - if I can't make you think by posting erudite stuff, I'll do it by just posting confusing stuff.

You post stuff that confuses me quite often. I'm sure I could make the effort and learn all about the weapons and stuff. I'm bright enough and have plenty of willing tutors. However, my interests lie..................elsewhere.

Heh. Like Long Rod Penetrators, etc...

Heh. Maggie - if I can't make you think by posting erudite stuff, I'll do it by just posting confusing stuff.
Now that I understand. My family motto is "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bulls#$t"

Maggie, the photo is of a T-54/55 with the original FCS weather sensor installed. A bit old but still semi-functional. Cheers JMH

Heh - What part of that picture are you callin' "old", JMH? *grin* Maggie - John is testing methods for posting pictures which will save him time, by avoiding the need to use the full MT web interface that we all (/sarcasm) love (/sarcasm off) to create a simple post. It's definitely a geek thing.

JHM - Thank you. John - See? Plenty of willing tutors! Barb - It's not just a *geek* thing.......it's a *computer geek* thing. Which is of course completely different from my Bostonian Society thing, which is *history geek*. I dare say everyone out here has some form of *geek* going.

John, that was possibly among your top 3 snarks. Of course, an *age* snark from someone older than me is... bemusing.

Maggie - I should have been more clear. The 'geek thing' isn't the terminology or the test, it's the high-five over the success ... *Grin*

Well, good thing someone else said it because I was just about to ask what in the picture was exactly old and semi-functional and whether SWWBO was aware of it or could clarify/deny the charge, but I believe that the exchange has been well beaten by John's comment about the age of certain commenters. Thus, color me shutting up. ;)

Ahhhhhhhhhh. The value of pre-emption!
 
By J.M. Heinrichs on April 19, 2006 10:25 PM
Well, SOMEONE illicitly requisitioned my "Long Rod Penetrator" comment. Cheers JMH

So that's where you found the photo ... Cheers JMH
