many moon later

It's August. The Fifth.
I am still awaiting finalization of Chapter 7, which goes no further without production and presentation of my Social Security card. I so want this done and over with, but, well....
New computer here, along a line of dead but dead ones, although my Dell, Dude, is fine but not involved in current cyber realities here at the home offices. Had a swingin' teen dream machine with a punked-out fan (necessary for the heat created by such advanced speeds) with blue lights and a viral load to beat the band, which it did - beat it to death in a flurry of messages from Norton telling of this invasion. Nifty.
But dear Frank Martin has gotten this new machine and just last night introduced more RAM into its guts. Now what? Well, to say nothing much, let me say it here. Yes, this is important stuff. As if.
All my files and pix and who-knows-what-else is frozen for some kind of an eternity on the Dell, Dude, that sits in a coma across my tech-filled room. Boxes upon boxes - some emptied out and now part of this system; others with components awaiting, uh, functionality, like this combo printer/fax/washer-dryer/toaster oven languishing in its pretty box. "C'mere, you."
A new-ish microwave oven is also part of this jumble. Heaps of modernity. Faster. Bigger. Antithesis of my personal reality. The oven comes from Tom Bowden - he who lives down off of Effie, a mere block away. Wasn't the current nuker in use from him too? Why, yes! But this one, again, is bigger and all that. This makes three, count 'em, three, nukes here. I could make popcorn for the masses. I should find someone in need instead. Legwork.
All is being found again online, such as this. Having to go through my mails to find passwords and such to access - fun. The whole of some setups has diminished or disappeared completely off the radar. We'll have more fun than a .....
Oh, maybe this is good? This is a Linex or however it's spelt - way different than any Micro product, but also a learning curve ball thrown to me. Application, application, application. And I will learn.
Dispense the knowledge and press on.
