Was it the computer or was it me?

There is not one iota of electronic technical intelligence existing in my brain. This is voluntary. Electronics don't interest me except that I enjoy being able to use them. When there is a problem such as not being able to turn on the television the joy of new technology quickly leaves my body. Just let me get out of my seat, press an "ON" button and turn a darned dial on the TV, opting for one of the 4 available stations instead of hundreds available for viewing nowadays. It's frustrating and confusing. So when our router/modem went south a week [...]

At the Vineyard

It was another enjoyable Friday evening with friends. We met Bob and Nancy at the Vineyard for wine and small eats.

It happens a lot around here between burst pipes, back flow when snow melts and the ground just can't absorb all the moisture, we all deal with it at some point. The four of us did enjoy our evening. Here is the break down: My first glass of wine [...]
