Welcome back!

I have been playing around with my computer. When it was given to me, I started to learn how to use it. Never had a handbook to know what to do.

Just learned about defragging the computer to help with removal of unnecessary stuff. I’ve been doing the disc cleanup and have C Cleaner. It makes me think that maybe some industrial supplies might come in handy to get done what I need done.

The only trouble is that I do not know which files and programs are not needed and which ones are. ??? How do I find that out? Oh yeah, also found out about using the refresh in the system tools. Very handy since I accidentally wiped out the games that came with the computer.

Yes, everybody has wishes. One of mine involves the use and purchase of a laptop.

It would be nice to get something else to work on sometimes. Something that would allow me to sit on the couch and sit with ease instead of having to sit on an office chair. It could be worse though. At least I have a computer and can go online and blog and other stuff. It can be fun. I just wish that everyone would have the opportunity to enjoy the same things.

Yes, a laptop would be nice.

Yes, this opinionated fat broad (my description) is back on the internet.

Not being able to count on the phone, not being able to get rid of junk e-mail are both extreme hassles. I have finally gotten through all of the e-mail that built up over the past few days. YUK to the extreme.

Phone cutting in and out. Sometimes we can make a call, sometimes we can’t. Now, as for internet access…..the phone is the modem.

My computer has learned quite a few of the many cuss words that i have been trying to UNlearn ever since I learned them. The cats have been hiding from me and look at me when they see me as if I am crazy. My husband has been trying to stay in another room, no matter which one I am currently in.

All of this because our phone provider has been bought out by another company and they are trying to attune all of the towers to work together. Well, together, they ain’t. I have no idea when I will be able to post again because access has been very spotty.

I hear all types of alphabetic letters for different things. I recently heard about PS3. My response was hunh?

Well, I guess that i am not really up to the times. It happens.

I finally figured out that it has to do with Play Station 3 games. Oh, Yeah….
Some of the younger people might say - DUH! Well, I am learning here. Do you realize that you should never stop learning. If a 55 year old, opinionated, fat broad who is analog can learn how to blog, I guess it ain’t too late. Yes, I am familiar with some slang terms. My head isn’t all that gray, yet.

Yes, it was only a couple of days ago that I wrote about a game. Here is another. It is called UNFOLDING.

Each stage gets more and more complicated. You will see a puzzle made of dots connected to lines which cross. You are supposed to unfold each puzzle until no lines cross each others.

Remember, each game stage gets more complicated. Enjoy.

Have you noticed that everything is coming out in touch screens these days?

I have an item that uses a touch screen and I have found that it does have a serious drawback. I had left it out in our car and it got hot. Now the screen no longer responds to touch in a number of places. I have no idea how to fix that problem.

Since this device is a Sudoku hand held device, I am frustrated by the inability to play it any more. I was wondering, is there a way to fix it or am I out of play? I want my game back.

Have you ever noticed how confusing that computer stuff can be? There is the tower, the keyboard, the mouse, the monitor, external hard drive, the software, the wires, the…….OY VEY.

I am still learning here. I still believe in the old process of hard copy. Now people have hard drives. I remember when….wait a minute! That is what my grandma used to say. Am I showing my age here? I think so. I still like to have things on paper for just in case. You have heard of old ‘Justin’ haven’t you? Just in case the electric goes out, just in case water gets on something, just in case - well you must get the idea by now. I have seen how some new cars have a keyboard on their sides in order for the person to get access to the car. What does the person do when the car is covered with ICE? I dunno, computers still have their uses, other wise I could not be doing this right now could I?

Have you ever heard of the old saying “sink or swim”? I have and it can leave you with an uncomfortable feeling if you are the one being told that.

It used to be that kids were taught to swim by being dropped into water to , literally, sink or swim. Then people got the idea that if the kid sinks, the kid might actually drown. So people started to teach kids slowly how to swim in a safe manner that would make sure that they were safe. I was one of the blessed ones that was taught to swim slowly and safely. Of course now, I would float very easily without much effort. Fat does float doesn’t it?

Some things have gotten better in life. Swimming lessons, medicine, flight, electronics, those are only a few things that have gotten better. Plumbing has gotten better when you think of sinks, bathtubs, toilets (thank God for them), washing machines, and dishwashers. Now when I think of sink or swim, I think of a sink, or going to the beach and the surf in order to swim. Life can be good.

You know how i have mentioned advertising in some of my past articles? Well, I have found that there is something called -digital signage. I’m not sure exactly how it works, but it is a new way to advertise or get your message out to the public. Since I’m not completely digital in my daily life (I do have a cell phone and computer after all), I can’t explain how this works. Thinking on it however, if there is something that will make some ads more interesting, wouldn’t people pay more attention to what they are seeing? Most ads I ignore or forget what they were about as soon as the ad is gone. That would seem to reverse the purpose of the ad in the first place. Making it interesting, would help people to remember it.
