Today is Tuesday.
You know what that means.
We're gonna have a Special Guest!

So put on your ears
Like Good Mouseketeers.
Cause Tuesday is Guest Star Day!!!!

Today in history. February 15, 1820 was the birthday of Susan B Anthony. Now is there anyone out there who doesn't associate this day with Mary Poppins? WHAT? Am I the only (besides CK) that finds music in almost everything. I do suppose we are in the minority. However, on the other hand, knowing how much I LOVE musicals, I could not pass by a chance to celebrate this day in history without a special song.
Oh puleeze........ You're STILL asking "Why?"? I'll tell you why. Cause Tuesday is Guest Star Day!!!!!

Do You KNow Where Your Computer Is?

I am Afraid. You should be afraid. Be very afraid.

This thing we call a computer has more control than you may realize. I discovered this yesterday when I tried to turn mine on. First of all, I had not turned it off, but it was off anyway. After I turned it on, the only thing I could get to come up was a screen that said....










"Your computer is unable to start. We will attempt to find and repair the problems. It could take a few minutes."

1st of all, that should have been my first warning. If my computer won't start up, then how can it send me a message telling me so.
THEN, it asked me if I want it to run a scan to try to find an fix the problem.

"Click YES or NO"
(Reminded my of those love notes from grade school, "Hi. I like you. Do you like me. Please check YES or NO).....whew, glad those days are over.....

ahem
Monkeys Are Funny.

Well, I am usually very wary of clicking on any buttons that I've never seen before but I clicked away. Then this little bar appeared on the screen that had a blue dot running back and forth across it. It said it was checking for the problem and then would attempt to repair it. This happened for about 10 minutes. Then it stopped and said that it could not repair the problem but if I entered more information, Microsoft might be able to crack the problem. It would try again.

"Please click....
Send additional information (recommended).......
Don't Send....."

There was another box. It said "Click here to review problems."
That seemed safe.
I clicked that button and this is what I got. (The numbers have been change to protect the innocent)


6.1.8600.5691.333
6.2.6955.147556

Bad Batch
6.3.7800.5692.30210

WELL, thank goodness they cleared THAT up!!

I decided to try to old standby. Turn off the computer and then try to turn it back on.
I tried that.
It asked me, "Are you sure you want to turn off your computer?"

HOW IS IT THAT A COMPUTER THAT WON'T START CAN CARRY ON A CONVERSATION WITH ME!! ALSO, I AM NOT A CHILD! WHY IS IT ARGUING WITH ME!!!!!!

With bated breath, I turned it off...waited a few moments....and turned it back on.











Is the suspense killing you yet??







Well, that was enough excitement for one day.
I'm exhausted!!!!

Never-the-less, I cannot help but wonder, when I am asleep at night. What exactly is my computer doing? It is chatting with other computers? Is it video taping me? OR is it just trying to think up ways to drive me crazier.

I'm not afraid.
No sir-ee.
I'm gonna live to be 93.
I play safe for you and me.
Cause I'M No Fool!

P.S. The video says it's about 8 minutes but it's really about 40 seconds.

Today is Tuesday. You Know What That Means

Today is Tuesday.
You know what that means.
We're gonna have a special guest.

So put on your ears,
Like good Mouseketeers,
Cause Tuesday is Guest Star Day!





By now everyone has either heard or heard about Christina Aguilera's faux pas while singing the Star Spangled Banner for the Super Bowl. (note how I said Faux Pas....as in foo pah....as in the opposite of phu ma.....).

This will be a huge topic of conversation for a while. But for some reason, it brought to mind another Super Bowl and another Star Spangled Banner. It was at a time when our country was all pulling together. Our men and women in the Military were in the Persian Gulf. For once it seemed like everyone was proud to be an American. It was Super Bowl XX5 and is considered to be one of Televisions Greatest Moments.

Although I have heard this song many many times, sung by many, many people. There was one that still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. Pitch perfect and sung with so much gusto, it is one of the few times that the only word to describe it is SPECTACULAR!

I Hope you enjoy today's Special Guest.
I Hope it fills you with pride.
Oh, and it goes without saying... God Bless America!

More of The Dreaded WVB

I know the anticipation has been driving you crazy.
You've laid awake nights wondering and hoping
"Will I ever get to learn any new words?", you whispered aloud.
You probably caught yourself saying out loud,"I NEED to broaden my vocabulary".

Well, you can put your worries to rest. Today is the next installment of The Dreaded WVB.
You know, that little box at the bottom of the page with random letters that, until now, everyone thought were just letters that had no meaning.

The Word Verification Box.

So now, without further ado....busy activity, fuss, excitement, commotion, flurry, hub bub, turmoil.....oh, sorry, I've missed my Thesaurus and just had to use it.

Hey There, Georgie Girl!!

So here I am.






I'm trying to get back in the zone.
The Blog Zone. Picture, if you will, a woman. She is sitting at her computer...wait a minute. I said The BLOG Zone, not The Twilight Zone.











I'm trying to figure out how to get back in the rhythm.

How about a simple, "I'm Back!"?

Do I just start writing like I've been here all along?

Do I try to play catch-up? By the way, A Merry Christmas to Us All; God Bless Us Everyone!













Do I just start rambling along and see what happens? No, that would be silly and SO out of character for me.

Do I fill everyone in on my surgery.
OK, I'll do that.
I had surgery. Am doing well.












Now what?
Do I pretend I never stopped writing and pick up where I left off? Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Do I talk about why I haven't been blogging? That gets old.



Maybe I'll start off with a meme. Memes, Memes, Memes Oh My! No, Somehow I get the feeling we aren't in Kansas anymore.













I could start off with a song. Then again, I wasn't singing when I left. Never even said "So Long". (or farewell, auf weidersehen, or adieu. To you, and you, and you and you and you.)











Then again, I could always just slide in quietly. With so many people switching over to Facebook these days, perhaps nobody even noticed. Of course I haven't really been around there either. And it's been so long since I've checked my email, I'm afraid to even open that.

I don't know. There are just too many options. I think I'll just sleep on it and start back another day. After all, tomorrow IS another day!
