  1. I wanted to watch Doc Martin Season 7 so I signed up for a trial of Acorn.tv. Is this business/site legit? Anyone used it?
  2. Crap, I just remembered what I want to ask for Christmas: a Thermapen. Oh well.
  3. I should probably get the smoothifying machine out. I haven't used mine since Tim passed (which is probably why I'm fat again... that and the 1000 pounds of peanut butter M&Ms I ate over the last year).
  4. That makes my stomach uncomfortable just looking at it.
  5. Yeah, I told her about that. I wonder if they might be too basic though (she has been using a Mac for a while but wanted to learn more than the very basic stuff).
  6. My mom told me she was taking some free online course at "Apple Courses Online." (http://applecoursesonline.com/webinar-registration8275299) Sigh... Does anyone know anything about this? Are they just going to try to get money out of her or might she get malware from the site? Is there another legit place where she can go to learn tricks to using her new computer?
  7. Tim would be proud. The rights need to be much tighter though.
  8. Looks amazing Debbie and Mike! All I had was pizza as well (but no Pliny or any other drink for that matter).
  9. I haven't gotten a notification that my brisket has arrived...
  10. I can fix that but I felt that the texture on the menu was particularly fascinating.
  11. Not worried about it not having El Capitan, just want the battery to last (she is not good at noticing if there was something wrong with the battery). The box looked kinda dirty on one end So I imagine that it may have been in storage for a while. I'll probably wait to put El Capitan on it because I have to leave tomorrow and I'm just getting things set it for her now (and the internet here is like 2Mbps so even basic updates are taking a while). Do you see a reason that she needs to have El Capitan on it? It may be a while before I'm back.
  12. I bought my mom a MacBook Pro Retina 13" (standard) from the Apple store for Christmas. I noticed that it didn't have El Capitan on it which means it was built at least 3 months ago and has been sitting around unused. In theory, it could have been built in March since that's when these came out. Do you think this will cause earlier failure of the battery? If so I can have my mom return it and I can order a custom order. I'm hoping this computer will last her a long time. I did notice that in the desktop it says the battery is now charged but if I go into the system information and look at power it says "fully charged: no" and "charging: yes" which seems weird. This concerns me since an exploding battery can be very dangerous.
  13. How dare they make you eat such things.
  14. I guess I would've had a better chance beating Todd if I would have paid attention to my lineup this week (and not played 2 guys that were out).
