Oklahoma's First Rural Route.

The Postal Service established free delivery of mail to rural areas in 1896. Oklahoma's first rural route began serving customers on August 15, 1900 in Hennessey, Oklahoma. According to the Hennessey Clipper newspaper, Albert Darrow was the first Oklahoma Rural Carrier; his route was 24 miles long and covered a 31 square mile area with a population of 700. Darrow provided his own transportation, a horse and wagon and received an annual income of $500.

Really Microsoft? "Getting things ready - ..." Ready for what? What are you doing? Why is it taking so long?

Brought my Windows 10 laptop to the office so I can run all the updates today. Why is the Windows Update page so vague? It needs more feedback. Even a progress bar would be an improvement.

I wonder what the limit is on ibuprofen?

"The maximum amount of ibuprofen for adults is 800 milligrams per dose or 3200 mg per day"

Okay. I'm only 600 mg for the day.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Taking the day off to recuperate. It was such a nice day yesterday I had to take advantage and work out in the yard. Probably not the smartest thing after a long week attempting to get use to a standing workstation again. Legs are nice and sore. Fun.
