The Bull Og

When creating an event in Thunderbird (using the Lightning plugin,) I couldn’t get access to LDAP for doing a lookup in order to invite attendees.

Found a tip on how to do it (if you don’t have an LDAP server configured already, you’ll need to find info on how to do that elsewhere):

Thunderbird grabs the information separately. you will need to add
your ldap server to thunderbird by going to “Preferences->Composition-
>Addressing->Add directories…”

See the full thread here.

This evening, while I was out, I stopped to pick up some Thyme and Oregano. I had to marvel at how nice it is that that’s all we needed at home.

Over the last five years, I’ve gained a new appreciation for the effort it takes to build a life, having had to do so from scratch twice in that time. When I arrived both in Vienna and then San Francisco, I had nothing but suitcases of clothes.

In time, in both places, I/we acquired what was necessary for a household, and it’s so easy to take for granted things like shampoo, a bed, twisty-ties, a computer monitor, or a screwdriver.

When on every trip out-of-the-house, you have to think about what essentials are still missing, it’s nice that the day comes that all you need is some Thyme and Oregano.
