Computers, Vaudeville, Puddle Walkers, Step-Grandson

Strange group of subjects, huh? 
Computers - I needed some help with one of my computers recently.  I figured out what it was, went on line to find the part, and came across a company called Just Power Supplies/Beach Computers.  I met Bill through e-mail.  One of the most important things to me is customer service - you could sell me really crappy stuff as long as you do it nicely.  Bill is THE customer service king.  My hero - seriously.  So if you have computer issues, click on the button to the right and contact Bill.  You won't be sorry.
Vaudeville - much to my chagrin, no one has asked me about my little avatar - the old time lady and gentleman.  The lady is my great, great Aunt Ethel Hoag and the gentleman is Uncle Al Hoag.  I never met Uncle Al, but I had some years in my youth visiting Aunt Ethel in the Old Actors and Actresses Fund Home in New Jersey, before she passed away.  They were a Vaudeville act.  Some of you may be too young to even know what Vaudeville was - look it up : )  Here's another of their publicity pictures:


Puddle Walkers - one of the things I did not mention about Jeff was that he's a puddle walker, like me.  I've had the priviledge of being steward to four Greyhounds in the past nine years, and now the two furry terriers. ALL of them would walk around a puddle while we were out on our walks.  Except Jeffie.  He'll plow right through a puddle, just like his mommy.  Another endearing quality about the big lug.  He is big too - my other Greyts were between 65 and 70 pounds - Jeffie is pushing 90.
Step Grandson - here he is lounging on the couch:


And then there's this picture which I hesitated to share because it's really an awful picture.  Lincoln and his Auntie Leanna fell asleep on the bed and when I went to check on them I could see what he was doing was a real photo-op but I didn't want to wake them.  So I shot this picture in the dark.  This cannot be enlarged because there are almost no pixels to see, so please enjoy it small.  There isn't even any color, that's a red and white quilt.


Well that's it for Thursday.  This is the day I take off from memes and just throw in whatever I feel like.  Have a wonderful day.  Tomorrow is FRIDAY!! Peace.  B : )
