I gave up on my computer , it was soooo sloooow and the letter o was stuck causing much aggravation. I ordered a new computer this morning. gee they make it easy to get a new one, you don't even have to leave the house, or get dressed or have any money and it is on the way.

Online shopping is SOOOOOOO DANGEROUS...

It's like just sitting there on the 'Net, and the wallet is like right there just a few steps away, and magically there is stuff arriving in the mail... And all of a sudden, poof, nothing in the bank account !



Grats on the new computer, Bargoo!

I have been really good about not using credit cards and have worked at getting the balance down, but I consider this an emergency.I don't know how I would get along without a computer. I don't even have a typewriter, I gave that away when I got a computer.

Yes, online shopping is scary! I am addicted to ordering quilting fabrics and then can't remember what I've ordered or what I wanted it for.
Never end a sentence with a preposition, Ruthie.

Speaking of prepositions...I wonder if I will ever get the "who" and "whom" correct?

Grats, Bargoo! Yeah, computers are a need nowadays. So I understand . Typewriters are EVIL! I still used one two years back when my computer program went on the fritz at work, so awkward!

Heck, I've been too good with my small credit card, I got denied a car loan the weekend before last because I didn't have a huge credit history! That's what I get for having parents that freaked me out about credit cards at a young age.

Grammar Girl to the Rescue!:
Like whom, the pronoun him ends with m. When you're trying to decide whether to use who or whom, ask yourself if the answer to the question would be he or him. That's the trick: if you can answer the question being asked with him, then use whom, and it's easy to remember because they both end with m.

Another option is to simply avoid reading the obituaries.

I've never had a positive thought when reading them.

Yeah, but on the 'Net that can be hard to avoid, Bill.

I think you have a good point, but I admit I check the obits everyday to see if my name is there, so far I haven't seen it.
