   I think you hit the nail squarely on the head.

   I’d really like to get back to the old Rip we knew and loved.

   The current scam for me is that I need to update my cloud account or google account, or I won’t be able to store any more data on them. I don’t have an iCloud account or Google storage, and even if I did, I wouldn’t use it. If it’s in cyberspace, it can be hacked. My stuff is on my computer that is not networked, and it is backed up on a removable drive every day.

   Don’t use it, won’t miss it. Won’t miss any of those brain killing social media sites

   Once again, I quote Newton Minnow, Chairman of the FCC back in the 1960’s. This is what he had to say about it:

   “When television is good, nothing—not the theater, not the magazines or newspapers—nothing is better. But when television is bad, nothing is worse. I invite each of you to sit down in front of your television set when your station goes on the air and stay there for a day without a book, without a magazine, without a newspaper, without a profit and loss sheet or a rating book to distract you. Keep your eyes glued to that set until the station signs off. I can assure you that what you will observe is a vast wasteland.”

   I read in Dear Abby (or maybe it was ask Ann Landers?), who was anti-smoking. A reader complained that she probably wouldn’t give a dying man a cigarette. Her answer was “No, I would, he’s already done all the damage he can.” May have lost a bit in the telling.

   No idea what you are saying. I assume it’s trolling.

   Press the Print Screen button on your keyboard. Open Paint. Open edit and paste. Use Paint to enlarge. If you need more help, you probably shouldn’t be using a computer anyway.

   Yeah, and ham, and the giant. Get some new ideas.

    I used to have a job where I assembled bicycles. The kids’ bikes were easy, you could unpack and get it assembled in under 15 minutes. Adult bikes were more complex and could take up to 30 minutes to build, and then there was the problem of adjusting brakes, adjusting gears, dealing with warped wheels. Some of them never could be made workable. The professional assemblers from a company could do it faster, but a lot of their bikes weren’t bult very well, out of adjustment, but my company saved money. Sure they did. Spend less, get lower quality.
