The Joy of Internet

I am finding that having a computer with access to the internet in my little hot hand is alot like having a digital camera. The odious tasks of learning about F-stops and aperture openings, which always prevented me from taking photographs, are whisked away magically by technology. Now, with the the flick of a mouse, I have access to important material without having to schlep down to the nearest university library and xerox for five hours. (Those of us with damaged attention spans, do not truly have that option.)

You can tell that I am only about twenty years behind, here. It's just as well, since others have spent those twenty years entering data, and now I can just push those buttons, like I do on my dishwasher, and have it.

My day job is getting in the way of my blog. NOOOOOO. .. my day job provides me with material for my blog.
