My new computer was supposed to be delivered on Wednesday, but it never
showed up. After I got home from the car dealer and errands yesterday here comes

install all the goodies I want in it. Maybe, or should I say, probably no blog
tomorrow, depending.

Later I had thawed out some cod and cooked it in the Air Fryer at 400º for

This is a great organization, but the name ....

WHAC
We Help Abused Children
BHEAC
Bikers Help Educate Abused Children
EAC
