Please bear with me
No bears though. I am moving to a new computer and this process has grown exponentially more involved since my first Mac Plus. Among other things there is a broken power backer, a tangled web of wires that looks like any snake pit you ever saw in an Indiana Jones movie and wrestling matches with a totally uncooperative Airport router. Tonight it actually told me it was taking a time out. WTF? I will administer the time outs around here thank you very much. The transfer is good now except for iTunes playlists which I figured out today but it still won't transfer music that wasn't purchased on iTunes, so there is that to go yet. All of it has interrupted the creative process, the same process this whole operation was intended to enhance. But, if you have paid attention to the news you know absurdities are building, and Alaska things are happening and I am promising NO MORE PEAS posts. Give me a little time. There's a full moon and the stars are back as darkness reclaims the night sky and we begin the headlong plunge into winter. Several minor tragedies have made life interesting and there is still no sign of Kitty who is now part of that creative process. Another person I knew and liked was killed in an airplane crash Saturday night. They are falling out of the sky like rain this summer, speaking of which we have had weeks of rain and the other night it rained harder than I have ever seen it rain in Alaska. It rained so hard that twice in a week my Honda decided to throw off windshield wipers at 65 mph in hard rainstorms. So the Jeep has become the commuter vehicle because the Honda dealer had to order new wiper arms, and the change in gas mileage is expensive. The result of all this is as anybody who reads this knows, very little has been written for a couple of weeks. So I can only ask, please watch this space closely. In the very near future I will try to make it worthwhile. It would have to be. I mean, this new computer will increase wittiness, humor, intelligence and creativity. Honest, it says so in the instruction manual and if it doesn't there is a link to Mac technical support.
