Ahhh. Sitting on the back porch, surfin' the net--nice day! - Grumpyguy - 03-23-2009
Took today off. Waiting for the riding mower battery to charge up, so I decided to each lunch on the back porch and do a little surfing. About 60ยบ, partly sunny. Great day to be outside.
Just a couple observations concerning the MBP and the airport connection. With the sun, the screen is a little washed out unless you hold the computer at a odd angle.
At first, the airport strength indicator only showed one bar. Went into Airport Utility and unchecked the "connection robustness" and now have a full strength signal.
So far, not a lot of green, but that's good. Never know when April will rear its ugly head and nip all the buds with a cold spell.

You have an electric riding mower?

I don't dare put the snow blower away and go near the riding mower, It will snow a blizzard for sure.

AAA, batteries tend to discharge, if they are old. Needed to start the gas riding mower.

Have a gas riding mower. The battery just discharged over the winter. Don't think one could cut an acre with a battery powered lawn mower.

I'd be enjoying the 60 degree weather in my warm cozy bed or in front of a fireplace!
