Although the timestamp on this post indicates that it's 10:55 AM, that isn't exactly accurate where I am. I'm posting one last time from Stan and Georgia's home here in Escondido, CA, so here it is almost 8:00 AM. I leave this morning for the airport and my return to Knoxville, via Atlanta.

From Stan and Georgia Herman's home here in Escondido, CA, I am now able to post an update to this blog. I arrived on Thursday and over the past couple of days Stan, Georgia and I have had a great opportunity to become better acquainted. They have a lovely home on five acres here in the San Diego area, and their «family» consists of Jack and Morgan, their two dogs, Gilbert, the goat, and Hammer, the horse.

Today's my last day in Atlanta before heading out to San Diego tomorrow. I spent most of yesterday helping my friend Phil clear the KLEZ virus from his laptop. Had to go through Regedit to get rid of the remnants of the disabled Norton Antivirus program that the virus had slain. Once we did that, I got Norton's version 2002 installed, downloaded the latest virus definition files and set up a daily scan of his hard disk and the live update feature. He should be protected from now on out ... if he has the good sense to avoid opening unanticipated attachments to files he might receive in his email.
