Is your home computer behaving?

Only when threatened by another diagnostic test performed by an IT proctologist. Otherwise it's been behaving normally.

I see that young Airman working happily on the new technology that was then. Outside the classroom I see young students busily typing away on I-pads, text phones and all sorts of miniature electronic devices while my classmates and I are carrying notebooks and a workbook.

None of the students have pen in their shirt pockets or clipped to their t-shirts.

Perish the thought of a power outage that could cripple education. But maybe that in itself would be an education.

My grandkids drive me nuts with their toys! Their lives are sooooo important, they have a phone in their hand constantly, texting away or talking on it, or checking to see if they have any messages! Their attention span is nil when you're trying to have a conversation with them! It's very rude and I've told them so!

Good luck with your new endeavor! I never have learned excel or word....but have never needed it either.

Yet....
