Ooohhmmm. Come in, Scrappy. Can you read me?
Sigh. I thought we had her. Almost. Via my neighbor.
"Phalon, your neighbor guy is a genius!", Scraps yelled into the phone yesterday.
"Meghan, my friend from Arizona thinks your Dad is a genius", I told neighbor's visiting daughter; I left out the part about how Scrappy adored him, cuz that would just seem strange, although I agreed with Scraps - his computer wizardry is adorable.
While all who were standing around my kitchen yesterday agreed neighbor/Dad was a genius, Scrappy groaned into the phone, "Crap!"
"What?"
"I hung up the phone with adorable genius neighbor too soon; it's not working again."
"Call him back."
I have heard from neither since.

I don't know what to say Phalon. I know I'd be miserable if my system was fighting back like Scrappys'. Has she considered doing something drastic? I've heard a drop from a high enough distance makes replacing the old system seem more reasonable. High explosives would probably have the same affect. What ever she decides, tell her we said "Hi".

Channeling Scrappy, she says "Hi" back at you, Stepper. And adds she'd have done the computer drop a long time ago if a new computer wasn't so damned expensive.
To Kat, she has a big hug, says "Hi" and "Good luck in football."
Hello to everyone else too.

There's a Netbook out that isn't _too_ expensive, but it might not fit her needs. It doesn't have as much power behind it as a regular computer does. I have seen computer prices going down quite a bit, but they are still on the expensive side. I'd say 'take out a loan,' but in this day and time you never know ... that's kind of an iffy thing to do. Hope it all works out and she can get back online asap.

Channeling Scrappy....ohmmmm.....
Got her!
Scrappy speaking.....
Thanks, Jox, for the information...but since I'm currently unemployed it's hard to be thinking about buying something new. However, in the near future, it's looks as though I may be getting my old laptop up and running. Another month or so, and I might be back running amok. Cross your fingers.
TG - I appreciate the offer, but I doubt I can afford your friend's reasonable price. But thanks anyway.
For everybody....the flu has invaded the compound where I live...so the computer that I was able to use to check in is now off-limits for the duration of the illness.

Wait! She's not done yet....
Kat, kicked my @ss in football. Soooo, uhm..yeah, I'm torn between not wanting to talk to you, and congratulating you on your big, fat win.
What the hell. Big hugs, congratulations in your third ranking in the league.
