    Default Helping us with our Computer Folly

    I just want to voice a round of THANKS to the members of this forum who patiently help we "techno-peasants" through our computer woes. Some of you must be active users or I.T.!?

    My hubby and I were so frustrated with each other we ended up laughing so hard I almost ***ed my pants as he tried to steer me through photoshop. It's a gift to be able to computer-speak. I used to be able to learn these new things so quick, but I find that's not so as I age.

    You are Angels of the ethenet. LOL

    When I want to scream over computer frustration, I search Youtube. I always find a video how to fix, use, or correct any problem so far.

    YouTube has helped me with a lot of things, from computer related to recently how to siphon without sucking water into my mouth! It's like "the google" - but we have to remember to use them!!!!

    Ethernet = that's the cloth they put over your face before you get ether, right???? And guess what, folks, my son is an IT and guess what else, folks? He talks too fast for me to understand - IT's TF (that's talk fast)!!!!!!!! And I don't use letter words!!!! Don't know what they mean, besides which it would screw up my typing abilities. Edie
