Hap

Hap
When I first saw Hap, I thought the way his white blaze slides off his nose was rather silly, but I have become fond of it over the years. And it certainly makes it easy to pick him out from other tall mahogany bay Thoroughbreds.

Why, oh why

I’ve been cleaning the stock tank every two or three days, since Hap, at least, has the messy habit of rinsing his hay before he eats it. I am used to finding wads and strands of hay in the water. However, this morning I could have sworn that I found mud in the bottom of the stock tank which I had cleaned, rinsed and refilled two days earlier. Are Hap, Rags and Smoke now using their stock tank to make mud pies?

Ubuntu 5.10

Yesterday, I installed Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger) to my desktop. I had upgraded via a dist-upgrade last week, but decided to do a clean install do get rid of the cruft that I seem to accumulate on my PC as easily as breathing.

The install went smoothly, except for having to re-enter my POP and SMTP information into Evolution, which I use for mail.
