Over the last couple of days, achieved jointly with equal doses of stubbornness, frustration, and Red Bull, I have successfully managed to fix a couple of long-standing problems with my computer’s new operating system. As Mike Tyson used to say, “I am ess-tatic”!!

Yessirree, I am now once again able to send and receive e-mails – which has greatly enhanced my happy factor. Nothing like being cut off from the outside world by defective technology to enable negative thoughts to enter your mind (I wished that everyone responsible for the Vista OS would grow elephant trunks, and then catch the worst head cold ever).

I’ve also started to solve other issues, so there is hope. I may be once again a happy PC customer. We’ll see.

In other news, some of my “real” weekly columns are now available online.

Go to:

http://www.eventpub.com/

and scroll down the left hand side of the page, until you see “Featured Columnist”.

In the archives, you will find:

“Change Is Really Really Good”

“Cruising For A Bruising”

and

“Behind The Scenes With Hockey Night In Canada”.

All good fun…

Chow for now!!
