I wish I were 30 years younger, or at least possessed a few specific traits of people from that age group, when it comes to technology.

Don't get me wrong! I can generally get by pretty good, but electronic products now seem to require Einstein brain cells just to turn them on, let alone make any proper use of the friggin' things...

Take wireless thingies, for example. The last time I had bluetooth issues, my dentist was able to upgrade his golf club set to the latest platinum shaft line. Up until less than a year ago, we had to plug our laptop INTO a piece of wiring!! How primitive is that???

My last cell phone, I couldn't get anything other than the pre-installed ring tone to work, let alone go online somewhere, and download the theme song from "Mary Poppins".

I was also (as pointed out several times by Mrs. That Dan Guy) too cheap to add a few "extras" on, like voicemail, and call display, so if I missed a call, there was no record of the caller, nor any message. I may have missed my audition call for Canadian Banjo Idol!!!!

Oh well, onwards and upwards. I've enrolled in the local technical university here, and hope to be able to learn how to view vidoes on my cell phone by the end of February, the latest.

I wonder how long a piece of cable I'm going to need for that???

Chow for now!!
