Illiteracy at Prescott High School

The 2007 post that was here had a photo of the Prescott High School marquee after a prankster put a message there full of misspellings and improper usage. I got a request from the Prescott Unified School district to take the post down on 9/1/2015 because that post was showing up first in some search engines when one searched on PHS. I do think the prank was humorous, but I agree with PUSD that it is inappropriate for a prank to appear first in search results.

For real info on PHS, here are two official links for you to follow:

To those who linked here, I’m happy you liked the photo and text.

Undecided Apple Tree

Up until last week it was so warm, I doubted that it was really fall. Seems this apple tree in my yard felt the same confusion. It’s leaves are half green and half brown.

About a month ago we bought a 24 inch Apple imac. This thing is huge. We decided that we have had enough MS windows, thank you. There are lots of applications we use that are not on Linux. And the only downside of Apple is the cost upfront is higher. We bought 4GB of ram from a third party supplier and installed it ourselves, cost $171 delivered and about 15 minutes of labor. Apple wanted big bucks for added memory. We also bought the Parallels program that enables Windows (in our case XP) to run within a window on the mac. Of course this requires a copy of windows, which we had.

Here’s Gary with the new iMac.
