After a few harrowing moments this weekend and yesterday morning, the Desktop PC that is the RNS Tacoma Blogstation is back online.
It turns out that after I did the System Restore, an anti-virus program which will not be named (though it begins with an “N” and rhymes with “Horton” and came with the PC) freaked out and shut off my Network Control card to any and all traffic, and refused to relent until the unnamed software was completely removed.
I now have new anti-virus software that shares its name with a two-seater, V-10 Dodge sports car, works magnificently and is half the price per year of the previous software.
All seems well and the back-up laptop will go back to its place of respectful residence with many thanks after it gets swept and updated with Firefox and other 2009/2010 era software.

In other health news, I went to Frau Doktor a little while back for the annual physical. She called recently with the results of the various tests.
Coincidentally, she called just as I was about to sit down and eat a lovely combo quite similar to this one.
As she told me my cholesterol was very good, I was tempted to tell her that her arteries would probably harden at just the sight of what I was about to eat.
Genetics can be wonderful.
Current nutrition guidelines are all voodoo medicine.
The thing most dangerous to your arteries in that object is the bun.
