Things I have experienced & learned over the last 89Hours while my computer was "off-line"


  • On a trip to the Jersey Shore I learned that Beach Haven is now called something else
  • I learned that you can have a dog that you can take anywhere, according to the 1990(?) ADA Law as long as it is declared a "Service" Dog.
  • I really missed the computer and wondered how we got by without it in the "Old Days"
  • I actually bought a Newspaper...one that comes with Ink on it
  • I learned that if you do not e-mail your Grand-daughter to wish her a Happy 5th Birthday, she does not get the Message...even though you called her on the Telephone...
  • I Experienced Uncle Michael & Jason showing up @ my Bachelor Pad, instruments & Amps in hand to "Practice" multiple riffs while I am trying to watch NCAA Basketball!
  • Keelan turned 21! Happy Birthday, Keelan...
I also got a letter from the Pa State Inheritance TAX Department that tells me that Judith Ann left me an inheritance of $722.00 on which I owe the County of Phila $108.00 (15%)! Apparently, since we had a joint Checking account that amounted to $1444.00 at the time of her death, she bequeathed me her half!
  • I also learned that I was able to "FIX" my broken computer without the help of Comcast...once I set my Mind to it...

Welcome back, Pea! We were getting worried...

By the way, was the "service dog" named Coco? And did you take her to Beach HEAVEN, by any chance???

Congratulations on getting your computer back up--ALL BY YOURSELF. Take THAT, Comcast!

'duard, I gotta get more like you! Always having the Camera ready. I should have flicked a few photos of the Jam but failed to do so. Even though the Camera was sitting next to me!
P.S. The Jam was un-eventful...

What is revealing is that 89 hours off line can seem like a long time. What a time we live in
