This weekend should be fun. We should finally get a chance to paint a lot of the internal parts of the plane, ready to ‘smash’ the thing together in the coming weeks. Personally, I prefer the use of the word ‘Rivet’ rather than ‘Smash’ since the latter has some negative connotations when it comes to planes. One thing I forgot to note yesterday… I weighed myself, and over the last week I had lost 1.5 KG. And that is without doing much exercise. All I need to do now is to keep up the exercise.
Overnight, GOOGLE Desktop finished indexing my HDD. It found 71770 Emails and 165166 Files. The problem I have is that there are a huge number of duplicates in the index, particularly when you take into account attachments in emails. I have not really started using the program yet, but now that the index is complete I can actually start using this when searching for things. The syntax of the search is not the same, it would appear as using Google on the Web. In the back of my mind I have some problem with the software, but I am not sure quite what it is yet. More later on that…
