G'day from "vegemiterules"
As you can tell I have not been around for awhile, I have alluded to this before, I am having bad problems with my PC. Sometimes I can be on for only 5mins and bang gone for good, or I can stay online for longer then bang gone for good. My hard drive has been sounding like a truck backing up, beep, beep, beep, honestly I thought that at times I was in a Road Runners cartoon, beep! beep! Beep!
Suffice to say, I am back online now due to my mate Troy.
(Sorry guys, had to take Troy's photo down, it was too big and was puting my sidebar way way way down the bottom.)
Otherwise known as ThE NaShMan
Troy aka ThE NaShMan is a dead set true blue aussie mate!!!!!!!!!!!
Troy told me a really funny story the other day that I hope does not lose the humour to the written word.
As you may have all gathered by now, I am a "true" blonde in every sense of the word, but over the past few months since I have started blogging, I am learning so much about the computer lingo and its application.
Troy was telling me that I am so like his mum, a novice at the start, but willing to learn and enjoy the experience and not be afraid to go where no man has gone before (like the moon - but hey I hear you say that was done in 1969, oops, remember I am "blonde").
Troy's mum rang him as she was having a particular problem with her PC, Troy told her to "right" click on the mouse and go to another step, Troy's mum was taking a few minutes to "right" click and could not see to get to where Troy was trying to guide her.
After about fifteen minutes of not getting anywhere, Troy and his mum decided it would be better if Troy looked at his Mum's computer when they were coming over for dinner that evening.
That evening Troy, his beautiful wife Belinda and their handsome young son Hayden visited Troy's mum for dinner. Prior to sitting down for the family meal, they decided to see if they could work out what was wrong with the computer.
Troy asked his mum to do exactly what she was doing when she asked for help over the phone. His mum turned on the computer and went into the area where she was having problems, Troy was standing behind her to get an idea of what was happening, once there Troy said to his Mum, ok Mum, all you have to do is "right" click.
Troy was then amazed, his Mum opened up a word document and then typed in CLICK, see his Mum thought that Troy was saying "write" click not "right" click!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
What a lovely and funny story. I hope that I captured the humour and affection in the telling.
I am still having problems with my emails, have not be able to access them for over 5 weeks now, that is the next step in trying to get my PC up and running properly, suffice to say at least I am back online for the moment.
I am sending Troy a very special vege hug for getting me this far, if you want to know a bit more about my true blue aussie mate, visit Troy HERE
