Student #1: I think I want to go to Asia after college.
Student #2: Why?
Student #1: Because I really want to improve my Spanish, and the best way to do that is to live in the country.
Student #2: That's a good idea.

Yes I am. This male has squirmed his way into my heart and I can't stop thinking about him. My grandson. Yeah boring to you but now I finally know why all those grandparents I have known have always gone on about their grandkids. It breaks my heart that I will hardly ever see this beautiful little bundle because of where they live and my son's busy work life.


Onto a different topic...Why do people not keep the CDs they get with a new computer? Most of the time when I fix a computer for a friend they never have the installation CDs. Do the people who discard them not even wonder why they were given them in the first place? Well if you are reading this and you are getting a new pc or even cleaning up and thinking of throwing out all that extra stuff that came with your pc then DON'T! Keep it. It has a purpose and could save you lots of money in repair fees at a later date. Better still it could save your "computer friend" many hours.


On a similar topic, I discovered yesterday that you can use an OEM copy of windowsXP SP2 on an Acer computer with the Acer Key that's on the holographic sticker on the side of the case. I was able to activate it over the net as the only things I had changed in the computer were the hard drive and the optical drive.


I now have no spare older computers left to give away or replace broken ones with :( Quite a shame because I know so many people who can't afford a pc partly because of poor health. They are the ones who need them most to give them something to do. Also a few kids who's parents can't afford them. The computers I fix up often don't have a long life simply because of their age so if anyone out there has any to throw away let me know.
