Newfangled!

My grandson gave me this computer-machine several years ago. I will admit that I was really quite frightened with the whole affair. On the one hand, it was a lot like a television and a typewriter all in one. On the other hand, sometimes it would ask me thing and I would nearly fill my Depends in the panic that ensued. Since everyone knows that if you click wrong just once on these devices, the device will cease function completely, I spent lots of time on the phone with my grandson.

I look at the world wide web a lot, as this activity defines the upper limit of my technical ability. It is a good way to read about ailments I have and the prescription drugs that remedy these ailments. I have heard it is possible to "buy" prescription drugs over the Internet, but I don't trust buying things on the Internet. If they came to my door or called me on the telephone, I would have no compunctions about giving them money or answering any questions they have. However, I have heard that people steal from you when you buy things over the web. Entering contests or helping out the Social Security Administration over the web is safe, however.

So welcome to my web log! I will update when I am not hospitalized.
