What is pissing you off this time? - Page 45

Makes a great wood stain too.

We had a black walnut tree for years right on our property line. The neighbors hated it with a passion because the walnuts dropped on their car. So one year they offered to pay to cut it down, and we let them. I saved some of the wood to make nick knacks.

My old neighbour did as you, and boiled the walnut shells. He had pails of them I guess and used it on a bookcase he built. It looks like something from the dark ages, in a good way though

Your house has a nice aspect from the front with all the flowers grav.

Gravdigr · 10-09-2013, 09:23 AM

Thanks Ali, but that's Momdigr's doings. It would be grass to the foundation if it was up to me.

And that roof ain't any purtier today than it was yesterday. I'm having a really hard time with this latest 'usurption' (?) of homeownership.

Gravdigr · 10-09-2013, 09:25 AM

Usurption - yeah, no that's not a word.

I was close though...usurpation.

I commented in the other thread, but ... how did this happen, again? Your dad just engaged a company to replace your roof without talking to you?

footfootfoot · 10-09-2013, 11:44 AM

Fixed it.

If you only knew what I've been through with/for/because of the people I'm related to.

I told the majority of them to kiss off a long time ago.

Gravdigr · 10-09-2013, 01:04 PM

And, yes, I thank God for the few friends I have.

Just bought an HP all-in-one so that, among other things, I can scan in papers that need to be emailed to various offices without delay. The scanner worked perfectly on the first job. Today it scans some things correctly but breaks sheets of text into 7 or 8 scans of only an inch or so each. There is no full-page scan. I've never seen this before with other scanners.

Scheduling is making me antsy - this has to go today, I won't be able to do it tomorrow; and I have to leave for an all-afternoon meeting in 15 minutes.

This thing is brand new. Arrrggghhhh.

orthodoc · 10-10-2013, 10:52 AM

Found a weird way around it. The scanner will scan properly to my email, but not to my computer. So I set up the email scan function, emailed myself the documents, saved them, and sent them where they needed to go. Arrgghh ...

footfootfoot · 10-10-2013, 10:53 AM

Try reinstalling the software.

HP printers, especially the All-in-one, have become plastic flotsam and jetsam.
They try to do too many functions, and one or more is erratic most all the time.

I have my doubts about HP as a manufacturing company anymore.
Do they even still actually make (new) computers, or just sell re-furbished jobs ?

Perry Winkle · 10-10-2013, 12:11 PM

I like my Brother all-in-one. Has been working without issue for over a year.

footfootfoot · 10-10-2013, 01:04 PM

My Epson all in one was great. Especially after I got into re-loading ink cartridges.
