CFPA with Elizabeth Warren, webinar

...currently listening to Elizabeth Warren who has outstanding credentials in her field.
www.ourfinacialsecurity.org she referrences to write congress.
www.protecttheconsumer.org focuses on telling the chamber of commerce to quit lying about the Consumer Financial Protection Agency.
April 29th, wall street demonstrating. Financial reform is a must, folks. Deregulating has brought our country to it's knees. This woman is leading the fight for us. We must stand behind her and organize.
Check out her column on Huffington Post.

Java updates, again

Java wants to update me again, and try to get me to click on installing something that I don't want. Carbonite Online Backup now. No, I don't need this as I have a Netgear Stora 1tb network backup I use, thank you. It's cheapest in the long run and besides, I have complete control over it. And, the usual Openoffice suite offered for install. But, I already installed it over a year ago but I never use it as I have M/S Office 2007. I hate crappy software and Adobe has proven itself that it has crappy software. Yeah, it has us all hooked into the Java of course. Nobody else is doing it is why or maybe not.
Time for an online seminar, more rants and raves to come later...

Damn, over a year since I posted anything here

I got this email from Amazon about monetizing my blog here so I'm going to take a little time to see what I can do with that. Like everything else in my life there just isn't enough time to do everything. This will probably be another one. Oh, I did get a new computer just after my last post, last year. It's a nice slimline HP that I love. It did come with Vista Premium and I can say I've not had a problem with it either. Well, there is a little printer problem now and then but nothing I can't fix.
On to monetizing this blog....

Jave 6 Update 11, another update, geesh!

Don't ya' hate it? Every time I sit down to the computer I have an update waiting. Java and Adobe Acrobat Reader are the worst. What is it with this companys anyway, why all the updates? I never see any release notes with them telling me what has been updated. All I can think of is they are cramming more and more code into your system that will eventually tie up enough resources that you will get frustrated and want to through your computer out the window. Balance your budget now. Get ready for another year of unforeseen expenses. Is it time to buy another and more faster computer? I've been looking but I don't want to get tangled up in having to support Windows Vista either. I hear it's a sham. That's all I need is to waste more time on this damn computer. Yeah, get a Mac, right? I've got one and the browser, Safari sucks. Time to get something done now..

I forgot I had this blog.

Do you remember the old tv shows of sci-fi?
I came across an incredible web site with links that took me back in time.
I feel so old now after looking at all the past that I lived through from television.
If you want to feel melancholy, go to this link and be prepared to stay awhile.

Just click around and I'm sure you'll find what I did.
The history of television about brought tears to my eyes. I remember so much of all that.
Most late 1950's and early '60's is what got me hooked on t.v.
Enough for now, I have to go.

Blog created this day in history!

History has been made somewhere today and this is my history for today. More to come I'm sure.
