Well, drat! I was typing the www.htmlprimer.com for the lessons and instructions. But when I tried to show you how you could say 10°, it comes out just that way instead of 10*. This new format doesn't read html, I guess. I'm going into another room now and scream and swear!

Sorry your computer froze. That is so maddening!

Drat..froze up again...most of the time, my computer works with no problems at all...then all of a sudden I will have a day, where nothing goes right...I think today is one of those days...

When my son first bought me this computer, I sure was scared of it...took me a month to actually get online, tho the son had showed me all I needed to know to get started...

Once I was online, I felt so good...but the first time a problem occured, and I could not fix it, I would have to call the son at work for advice...and I am a cryer..


So I would always be calling the son up and would be crying...always thought I had broken something on the computer, and he would be angry..he always said, Ma, its really hard to break a computer, unless you throw it out the window, or some such thing...

But the folks at the small company where he worked got used to my calling...they got to recognize my weepy voice...One time someone hollered, "Hey Andy, your mom is on the phone for you, shes crying" A rather new employee, then remarked, "You mean Andy actually has a mother?"...

Andy is a rather big lad, 6'4"-6'5", 235-240lbs, and can be rather churlish, and taciturn if slightly provoked(Tho he can also be loads of fun and good natured, and hes really laid back most of the time)

But I guess, that seeing his large size, and having to deal with his personality, some folks think he actually just appeared by magic, in his present form, rather than actually having been born from this crying weepy woman...and to imagine a 'baby Andy' is more than most folk chose to do...
