That\u2019s always difficult.<\/p>\nThat\u2019s always difficult.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s stupid, but I feel like I\u2019m somehow violating privacy. He\u2019s dead there\u2019s no reason for him to need or expect privacy but I still feel like somehow I’m intruding.<\/p>\n
Aside from the way he stored information on his computer, (to me it seems literally random,) there are other stumbling blocks to get past. The biggest one is that he\u2019d subscribed to pretty much every mailing list on the planet and waiting for his machine to speed up means waiting for the download of all that junk mail to complete.<\/p>\n
It had been almost a year since I\u2019d turned his machine on.<\/p>\n
I was looking for a student he\u2019d been teaching to play the harp. As I\u2019ve been going through yet more piles of crap, I found a cache of harp music. Sure I could give the music to one of the local harpists. Most of it would probably sit in their libraries, then be forgotten.<\/p>\n
Or, I could gift his library to a person he loved teaching. Their lesson time together was always joyful and he was happy for days afterward. The student was marvelous, a quick learner, and impetuous enough to keep him entertained because keeping the lesson on track was a bit like herding cats. That particular student he really had to work hard to stay ahead of.<\/p>\n
So it seemed fitting that his library be given to help feed this student\u2019s voracious learning curve. I hope the child\u2019s mother doesn\u2019t think I\u2019m some spammer.<\/p>\n
I\u201dd no sooner sent the email & shut his computer down again than an earthquake rolled through. I do hope it wasn\u2019t commentary from on high.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a lot of odd emotional back & forth when I\u2019m sorting through his stuff, his computer is the most difficult for some reason. I feel it going through other things but the computer is the most draining for me.<\/p>\n
I decided, after the emotional drain and an earthquake that lunch was necessary. I ate then got a shower & flipped on the boob tube. My intention was to catch up on the news and see if I could get the magnitude and location of the quake.<\/p>\n
President Biden was blathering on about SCOTUS and wanting to make changes to the justices terms, He also wants to change the immunity that presidents have. I think he really should think long and hard about that one lest he be “Hoisted with his own petard\u201d.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter, I can\u2019t stand hearing Biden, Trump, or Harris anymore. I’m equally sick of the left \/ right members of congress. At this point they\u2019re all liars, the only question remaining is, \u201cTo what degree are these bastards lying?”<\/p>\n
So the TV was turned off almost as soon as it came on. I did learn that the quake was a 4.9 or so initial magnitude. I\u2019m sure that number will drop because they always do.<\/p>\n
I think it will be a while before I turn the other half\u2019s computer on again. I\u2019m not saying there\u2019s a link between president poopy pants blathering on about something, earthquakes, and my use of the other half\u2019s machine.<\/p>\n
But well… It couldn\u2019t hurt to treat it like a cursed object.<\/p>\n
I think it\u2019s time for a nap!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
