Bill's Notes

My new workstation up in my loft, or a hard day's night


Setting up this workstation should
be a piece of cake. Just plug and play.



Um, might be a little glitch.
Just some keyboard magic and ...



OK, that's me with two monitors
lighting up my face. Maybe shut
one monitor off and ...



Hmm, looks like another problem.
A little more typing and ...



Hey, is that a spiderweb I see
up in the rafters?



Oh, you're supposed to look
AT the webcam! Now I get it.

Nice van Dyke!

The van Dyke — a chin beard with mustache that may or may not be attached — is commonly called a "goatee", but this is a misnomer, at least until the shift in terminology is fully adopted. The "goatee" properly refers only to a small beard on the chin, without a mustache, rather in the manner of a goat.

Thanks for the clarification. Too bad it's going grey.

Remember grey is distinguished. Beats going bald. Ask Ivan.
