Long meme with colour related questions

And in other events, i spent my day off huddling inside. The wind is very high out there and it sounds very cold! So instead i cleaned the bathroom, vaccuumed and dusted, packed up allllll the old papers and stuff and took them all down to the recycle shelves. Then my internet connection just died on me. Agghh! After an hour i called up, mainly thinking it was probably an area outage due to the wind but no, it seemed to be an IP address conflict somewhere and the lad spent a half hour on the phone with me doing this, that, and the other. Finally we had to fool it by putting in a static ip address, connecting and then going back to the random address so that the computer/modem would request a different one instead of the old one that it stubbornly refused to let go of. Anyway the upshot is, it's working again.

gramie_dee made me giggle this morning unintentionally. Pronounciation differences between the east side of the Atlantic and the West side rather clashed over an attempt at telling a joke. Let's just say we won't have to worry about him telling Newfoundland jokes when he comes to Canada. ;)
