Numbers 23:23 If you're into the King James version.
I think this was a bit before Samual Morse' time ;-)

"What hath God Wrought" - Samuel FB Morse telegraphed it from Baltimore to Washington in 1844 - but actually it was said by Moses in the Bible in Numbers 23:23 (King James)

I thought it was "I need you Watson" and wasn't that the telephone?

Did NOT look this up so it will probably be wrong but I believe the phrase was "Watson. Come Here. I need you."
When I do look it up, I WILL be wrong, but that was the telephone...

Yeah that's right, I knew it had a religous aspect to it but didn't have a bible handy to check it out!

I have a whole bunch of sayings that I made up today, I just can't remember them.

Colleen; It's been very educational reading your posts, and I sort of thought they had a "local" flavor. Now I know. I work at Edgewood and 98, for an Engineering Company. I drive from Brandon every day go up and down LH Blvd, more times than I can count. Keep up the good work, and for what it's worth, I agree that the curve up the coast just ins't going to happen. Not that I don't want it to, but I just don't think it will.
Cheers

Yes you are right about the quote (that I was wrong)..too tired to look it up. I figured I would get the gist across

Alexander Bell invented the telephone and Morse invented Morse code two sperate things, I think your mixing it up.

Looking at the IR loop for the last 6 hours, she looks to me like she's definitely grown in size and apparently convection. The eye looks large but defined now. (?)
Also, I never got to see the actual path of . If anyone could post a link to that, it would appreciated.

OK I just decided we have one more BONUS QUESTION.
This quote describes how I feel right about now...I want the movie...the NAME of the main character and the name of the actor who portrayed him/her.
IMDB.com has officially been banned from these boards...challenge yourselves...
OK Here goes..
"Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could a round through a fleas ass at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in."
Trust me, I don't confuse AT&T with Western Union...
