R.I.P. LCDR Robert D. Johnson USN Ret
Today my father passed. He was missing his wife, Prue, of 64 years. For the last 4 months, since her passing, he has been asking everybody that talks to him if they have seen Prue. I believe he is in a better place, with his wife, young and joyful, once again.

If Your Message Is Good, Why Lie?
A First Principle is that two things can be true at the same time. I can be fat and I can be old. Both are true, at the same time. Next, who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes? 50 years ago, a picture was worth a thousand words, and it could…

AAR – TDY Dad’s House
Dad is in long-term care. He will never return to the home he shared with his wife, my mother, for the last 20+ years. Last week was a hard trip to say goodbye. He was in good spirits and doing “ok”. He is not nearly as sharp as he was a couple of years ago.…

Taking care of infrastructure
I started caring about computer infrastructure in the early 1980s. We feed our computer via punch cards, 9 track tape, and a few dozen hardwired terminals at 4800 baud. We upgraded our network. We got our IBM 3090 on BITNET. I learned more about networking. We upgraded to 10base2 when our Sun 360s arrived. More…
