Welcome Back....

To my sidebar which has been banished to the bottom of the screen since April.

Spirit of Giving

It's that time of year, the time to finish all my charitable giving. I recently got some address labels from the American Heart Association and Heifer International so I am adding them to the tally. So, who would you like me to donate to? I think it was Edneza that got me to give to Heifer last year. This year, if you ask it, I will attempt it. It may not be a large amount but every amount helps.

Painful

I spent 30 minutes on the phone with my dad today, fairly unusual for me to talk with him that long, usually its about 10 minutes max. Today however, I was attempting to teach my dad to use e-mail. 10 minutes to get to Yahoo mail, 10 minutes to login and read a message and another 10 minutes to reply to an e-mail all on his 56k modem. And he wonders why no one wants to help him.
