The "-f" option is 'force' and overrides the absence of 'write' permission
under certain circumstances.

IHB today is my parents' 37th wedding anniversary.
IHB I need to get an 83% or better on my final to keep my "A" in American Lit.
I don't think it'll be a problem.  :)

John's den leader for next year is a guy.  I was a den leader for 
John's brother one year, but was awful at it.

bruce, man pages are your friend.

response 429 of 673: Mark Unseen   Aug 7 15:55 UTC 2003

No, man pages are a system of documentation installed on Unix machines 
to ensure that no one but those who understand it already learn 
anything about a particular Unix binary.  My understanding is that it 
was not easy to install bear traps in software, to keep users from 
familiarizing themselves with the operating system, and so man pages 
had to be developed instead.  With AIX (IBM Unix), they are part of the 
development kit like the C compiler, further establishing limits on who 
they are for.

Some wiring work at a local video company (filling in for other -thanks,
Eric!) went well, got asked if I was interested in rebuilding a mobile rack
in the near future.

resp:436 Me too.  I have a nifty little scale that measures fat 
percentage as well as weight, and I've been losing fat, too =)

I have some really nice neighbors.  While I was agonizingly making my way the
block between my apartment and the house we are building, sitting down every
50 feet, one of them came and asked if she should call the doctor.  I
explained it was a pulled muscle.  She got me a walker.  Two neighbors from
across the street came to see if they could make the walker taller.  I said
not to bother.  Another neighbor stopped to see if he could make it taller,
and showed me his poison ivy.  Another neighbor stopped to see why I was lying
on the ground.  And Jim made me a nice microwavable heat pad so I could get
more than 15 minutes sleep at a time.  There is one position I can sleep in.
Last time I pulled a similar muscle I had to sit up all night.  Boy am I
lucky.  Back to bed.

Re #439:  How do you get a scale to do that?  I'd love to be
able to distinguish water weight from fat.

Had a great time last night, watching the sky for Perseids.

Enjoyed a day at the San Francisco zoo with our 4-year-old granddaughter
today. We hadn't seen her since she was a few months old.

Last night's sailing was fun.  We went out just after sunset.  The winds had
steadied down and were crossing the lake, so we could sail back and forth
along its length on easy reaches.  The wind was out of the north, and the moon
was in the south.  Quite beautiful and peaceful.  The few powerboats on the
lake were moving slowly, so even the wakes weren't bad.

Fun. Fun. Fun. :)
