PAM EXPLAINS TO ME -- EVERYONE HAS COMPUTER PROBLEMS, I SHOULD JUST ACCEPT IT. I ACTUALLY THINK COMPUTERS ARE A FIENDISH PLAN OF TEH MARITAN SPIES WHO LANDED IN AREA 51 LONG AGO IN AN EFFORT TO TAKE OVER THE PLANET- BUT AFTER STUDYING THE POPULATION, THEY LEFT- LEAVING A HALF BAKED "SYSTEM" AS PUNISHMENT FOR OUR NOT OBEYING THE NATURAL ORDER OF THINGS.
I REMEMBER... BACK WHEN COMPUTERS WERE THE SIZE OF MY HOUSE AND WE WORE HAIR NETS AND SLIPPERS-- THE FIRST PROGRAM I WROTE-- IN "FORTRAN" IN PUNCH CARDS--- THIS BIG FANCY COMPUTER ( AT MIT) PRINTED MY NAME OUT 25 TIMES INSTEAD OF DOING WHATEVER IT WAS SUPPOSED TO DO.
I WAS MISSING A COMMA SOMEWHERE- I SHUDA QUIT THEN.
REAL LIFE AND REAL PEOPLE MAKE ALLOWENCES FOR THE OCASIONAL TYPO AND MIS SPELLING
AS YOU READ THIS-- YOU M,AKE ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE FACT THAT MY TYPING, ENGLISH, OR SPELLING IS ANYTHING BUT PERFECT. AND YOU GO ON.
NOT SO WITH COMPUTERS . ONE LOUSY TYPO IN A PASSWORD- AND THIS UNFORGIVING MONSTER WITH WHICH I MUST DEAL DAILY JUST GRINS AT ME WITH A SERIES OF
WRONG PASSWORD
DID YOU FORGET YOUR PASSWORD?..
shame on you
TRY ANOTHER
SORRY.
NO NOT THAT ONE
you used that one.
YOU MUST HAVE 8 CHARActors\
not those characters
where did you grow up?
whaddia mean "no where yet?"
meatcutter steve had a wonderful you- tube he was to send me-- it must have been monty python with the new computer-.. simplty a book to which they applied computer terms as they flipped pages...- i laughed long and hard-- still laughing- as they close a file and then can not get it open...and i am still waiting for steve to send me the link.. does anyone else know the skit ??? it was a good one.
**********
which brings me to the ... just the faCTS-- FROM THE OLD TV SHOW-- JUST TEH FACTS. I HAVE A LARGE "BEEF" GOING. THE INTERPRETATION OF A FACT IS A TERRIBEL RUMOR GENERATOR AROUND HERE..
TEH CLASSIC ONE IS HOODSIE- WITH A RUNNY EYE- "HOODSIE HAS A PROBLEM WITH IS EYE,- WHITE DOGS DO YOU KNOW" SO HOODSIEIS RUMORED TO BE BLIND AND DEAF... IS GIVEN AWAY-- AND I INSISTED HE BE PROMPTLY RETURNED - TOOK HIM tO THE CANINE EYE DOCTOR - HE HAD A TYOPICAL EYE INFECTION-- BUT HE WAS NEARLY GIVEN AWAY. BEAUSE SOMEONE KNEW ONE SMALL FACT ABOUT WHITE DOGS...
ME---- "THE ELECTRICITY IS OUT BECAUSE WE ARE THE LAST ONES ON TEH LINE"-- i said that and sat around in teh dark for a couple hours-- decided to call my pRENTS IN NEW YORK FOR LACK OF ANYTHING BETTER TO DO.. ONLY TO FIND THEY WERE OUT OF ELECTRICITY TOO. THE ENTIRE NORTH EAST WAS DARK.. I KNEW -- WE WERE AT TEH END OF THE IPSWICH LINE-- AND ASSUMED...
SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE READ SENTANCES ( NOT EVEN ENTIRE TRAINING BOOKS) AND TEHY LEARN A FEW BUZZ WORDS. SOCIALIZING IS A BIG ONE. "I AM GALD TO SEE YOU TAKE SIZZLE AND BENTLEY IN THE CAR IT WILL HELP WITH THEIR SOCIALIZATION"--
YESTERDAY
"TEH GOAT AND BLUEBERRY GOT OUT OF THE NEW PEN-- YOU REALLY SHOULD ASK SOMEONE TO WALK TEH FENCE AND SEE IF THERE IS ANY OPENING "
AND TEH BAD ONE... LAST NIGHT- I WATCHED THE NEW PUPS HAVING BOWEL MOVEMENTS-- AND IT WAS CLEAR MUCUS- I WAS NOT TOLD BECAUSE " PUPS ALWAYS HAVE LOOSE WIERD STOOLS" NOT TRUE-- SO I STARTED ASKING AROUND-- BECAUSE OF TEH SHIFTING PERSONELL NO ONE PERSON MADE NOTE OF IT.. AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANYONE WHO HAS SEEN A "NORMAL" STOOL OUT OF THIS LITTER.... EVER.... TEH PUPS LOOK HEALTHY BUT THOSE STOOLS SURE DON'T AND IF THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN RIGHT , DO WE HAVE A BIGGER PROBLEM?
THERE YOU HAVE IT... THAT IS MY BIGGEST WORRY OF THE DAY...
SHlT OF ONE KIND OR ANOTHER IS A BIG DEAL AROUND HERE.
