Farewell Microsoft Internet Explorer 1995-2022

June 15, 2022 Tony Burgess Leave a comment

On Wednesday, June 15, 2022, Microsoft officially ended support for its once-dominant web browser, Internet Explorer. I remember first seeing it in its 2.0 version and I used it for a few years after it adopted Java and Animated gifs. MSIE put a hurting on then-dominant browser Netscape, which I still have nostalgia for.

The Internet changed because of Microsoft. Developers made websites to work with it forcing people to use it over alternatives.

Competition finally began to eat into the market share dominance it once enjoyed. IE has been replaced by Edge, an excellent cross-platform browser that can be used on Windows and Linux.

The joke I have heard today is it’s the best browser to download Google’s Chrome. Well, I guess we will have to use alternatives now. Rest in Pixels Internet Explorer.

World Blood Donor Day 2022 #blooddonor @BloodAssurance

June 14, 2022 Tony Burgess Leave a comment

The World Blood Donor Day is a reminder of the importance of blood donation as an act of solidarity. Every year on June 14, organizations around the world celebrate World Blood Donor Day, raising awareness of the importance of donating blood and saving lives.

I work for a blood bank and the need for a safe and adequate blood supply is a must. It’s life saving and it makes a difference to those who donate and receive blood donations.

Give when and if you can. Be a part of the solution.

All of us with one voice call one God differently as Parmatma, Ishwara, Shiva, Vishnu, Rama, Allah, Khuda, Dada-Hormuzda, Jehova, God and an infinite variety of names.

Well it’s Monday again. Sometimes it’s a good thing. It’s only bad if you have an existential dread of the day as a rule. No matter what have a good day.

I believe that God is expressed differently in different people. Everyone is a part of a journey where we are walking one another home. The divine can be found in different places with different faces. For many, their faith is a part of the DNA of their people. Others enter into a relationship with God based upon a sacrifice.

It’s possible that myths have true meaning. It’s interesting when all that intersects. So no matter if you are team Jesus/Yahweh, team Athena or team Vishnu you are seeking and searching. Don’t wait to go to eternity, realize that heaven can be found here and now.

Love one another no matter how you worship, pray or engage in a spiritual community.
