A Cold Snap . . .

Well, maybe a ‘cool’ snap. It was 93° today, not exactly ‘cool’, but compared to yesterday’s 101, you could call it ‘coolish’, I guess.
Tomorrow Jan and I will make one last trip down to Webster to take care of some errands, and have lunch at King Food, our longtime favorite Chinese place. After a quick client visit, and a stop off at our storeroom, we’ll head back to the rig, with a stop at Brandi’s if it’s time for them to be home.
For dinner tonight I fixed up one of Jan’s delicious standards, Pasta Chili. Made with spaghetti or elbow macaroni, I added a can of Steak & Shake Chili, a can of Habanero Rotel Tomatoes, and a can of Bush’s Chili Beans. Topped with Shredded Cheese, and served with a couple of slices of garlic bread, it’s a great meal.
One thing that makes this a quick and easy meal is the Microwave Pasta Boat.
Just dump in your pasta, add water and a little salt, and pop it in the Microwave for about 20 minutes. Works great.
And it’s also a great vegetable steamer. Check it out.
Saw an article today about a new 3.5 inch HD being introduced by Hitachi.
It’s 8 TB. That’s Terabytes. As in 8000 Gigabytes, or 8,000,000 Megabytes. In something smaller than a paperback book.
I remember my first HD. It was a 10 Megabyte SCSI drive, the size of a shoebox, and it cost $800.00. Now I can buy a 1TB HD, 100,000 times larger than my 10MB, for less than $60.00.
Now that’s change.
