Resurrection
Monday, August 23rd, 2004 11:28 pmBack online with a proper PC - as suspected it was the power unit which had died on me.
My plea for help to
romney has borne fruit and I now have a new power unit and a working DVD-ROM. The sound is back and running too. I don't know what was wrong I'd plugged the speakers in the wrong points, duh. with them but there they are, all working again.
I am formally reinstating
romney's sarcasm licence for another year, which will allow him unhindered ability to leave bizarre, irelevant and worryingly insane comments to my posts. It keeps him off the streets.
It took me but a single evening of typing on the dwarf keyboard that comes with a lap top to remind me why I needed this one fixed; oh the joys of a full-sized keyboard. I'd French it if I wasn't worried about the age and condition of some of the crumbs trapped between the keys, and the possibilty therefore of poisoning followed by 240 volts across the tonsils. The loving caress of my two fingered typing will have to suffice.
I have a very itchy wasp sting on my forearm. This is unrelated to the state of the computer, you may have guessed, but I thought I'd make that plain for the slower of you. Yes, folks, I got stung. And after the transient squeakdom of the sting itself, it is the itchy aftermath which annoys most. After my shower there will be a further and more liberal application of Anthisan. If it doesn't stop itching soon, I shall be forced to go on a murderous rampage. Or be rude in writing on some newsgroup.
Either is good.
