Laptops SUCK!

Posted on 6:51 AM by Unknown
It would be a lie if I said I was not disappointed in the Packers. I mean they can't even get a coach fired anymore! Why even bother playing.

YEA - I'm BACK and cranky!!

Reason is that I got the call of doom last night. My worthless piece of crap laptop has to be "restored" which means I lose all of my photo programs. I can get most of them back but Photoshop CS3 was sort of a gift and now I actually have to purchase it.

Having my laptop restored to factory settings is something like losing your wallet. It's not the end of the world but it's a big freaking headache! As luck would have it I had purchased a new desk top computer and was a weekend away from transferring/copying all important things over to it but . . . FUBR!!
-------------------------------

As you all know Josh got to go into a burning house and was front man on the hose which was pretty cool. What was NOT cool was the people who had the fire hydrant in their yard had not kept snow away and precious minutes were lost shoveling the hydrant out. remember - that fire could be YOUR house!

The BIG thing was that the house that burned was a duplex and keeping the fire away from the other side was a very very good job. Well done Columbus Volunteers!

---------------------------------

We all know that changing a password every few months is a complete waste of time. IF someone knows you password and intends harm they are not going to wait a month and THEY rip you off right?

Well - if you own a WIN XP computer did you know that anyone with a WIN 2000 CD can insert the CD and bypass all your protection? COOL - how handy is that!!

BTW - I LOVE Windows 7.

----------------------------------

Anyway - I'll have exciting news tomorrow . . well . . for our family at least!
