extended data
Sunday afternoon, and roy is outright laughing to himself. Got a decent snap shop of crew sent to me. My lovely wife is camera shy, so these shots are few and far between.
Anyway, this type of site is a wonderful example of that which I have almost never done.
It's a short, but infinite list, depending on your point of view.
I laugh because, although I have not done this HERE before, my computer had a whole list of suggested TITLEs. Amusing. I post an additional photo, and my computer shows me a list and the first item in the list is "extended data". That's funny.
But no real mystery. The forums and boards I do frequent infrequently are of a technical nature. Extended data is an Autocad term for data not visible on screen (except under specific circumstances). Where, in the dxf code for an entity, I might assign a line the name "Stanley", for whatever twisted purposes I may or may not possess. Since the name "Stanley" is by no means standard data for a line segment, it is called "extended data", and there are protocols by which it can be added.
If I have not lost you yet, you are simply not paying attention. Don't worry. In the former, there is yet time. While in the latter, you are in excellent company.
Even I have quite forgotten if ever I had anything pertinent to convey. Thank God for impertinence.
Did I mention that I posted a new picture, and am not exactly sure what else I should do.
Good.
