The improving computer situation ....
.... has almost solved all of my problems. People have occasionally commented on both my blogs about my seeming inability to spell. Well, I have a good excuse - technical malfunctions, to wit, a sticky keyboard that does all kinds of strange things. That, and dial up service via the never to be sufficiently condemned AOL (which is actually getting worse).
Well, I think I have solved THAT problem. I went out and bought a brand new Dell Inspiron with most of the bells and whistles. AND I am getting 1.5 m broadband from Embarq. I've even had young Clovis come over to help set it up - only cost a dinner and a movie.
That should fix it. No more sticky keyboard, no more interminable waits for the machine to actually DO anything, and best of all - no more dependency on AOL.
Of course, this does endanger my reputation as a luddite.

Congrats on losing AOL, that means of course you will need to give us your new contact info... you can't lose us that easily :-P
