Politics

It is the silly season where normal people loose there minds. So many candidates, so many tax levies, so many issues to be decided by a vote. So many lies, half truths, crooks and noise. I let the meat grinder called primaries sort the candidates out, vote most money issues down, vote against anything calling for more government regulation, vote against any candidates that is pro choice [baby killers], more government, higher taxes, against the military, anti god in everyday life, anti business, and for more welfare.
I realize I just put myself in about the bottom 10% of the voting public but it is just the way I think things should be done. Basically my politics are just a little to the Conservative side, maybe a whole lot to the Conservative side. I could go on a whole lot more but you get the picture and with that I'll go for now.

The Ohio State Football Debacle

Let me start by saying I have been a Ohio State fan since Rex Kern's days. So I go way back but the reality is boys and girls that Ohio State can't play with the big boys. The big Ten is over rated and State keeps playing the little sisters of the poor. Having said that, it hurts my heart to watch State play the better teams and struggle. They have a great coach, lots of money, win a lot, and play hard but just don't have the ability to win the real hard games. I mean they totally collapse. I know I know don't be so hard on them but its just so frustrating to watch them go to peaces. O well nobody died or lost there salvation. At the end of the day that's all that counts. Still frustrating.

Tech Heaven

A couple of days ago I was whining and crying about my woes with the tech stuff that I have. It was all going bad at the same time and all the tech people couldn't speak English. Well all is good now. My computers power supply died, which is no big deal except that its like me "old". Its a 2001 Dell 8100 model. You can find them but its cost a arm and a leg to buy. But my brother said that one of his friends has 2-3 real old Dell computers. Sure enough the oldest one had the power supply that I needed. Got it for $30.00, works great.

My Dish network went out at the same time as the computer. The tech guy at Dish said no problem [I knew I was I trouble than]. Well after 2-3 hours of 2-3 different tech folks, they said they would send out a tech guy, which is what I wanted then to do in the first place. They said he would be here between 12-5 pm. Now that's covering all your bases. So he came out and looked all the hardware over. Started talking to himself and fixing wires, moving wires, taking wires out, putting wires in, up on the roof, in the attic, back to the van, back in the attic. 2 hours later he had everything working right except the second television. He said it needed to be hit several times with a signal. That it would take 2-3 hours to get that done. I made sure I got the number to call if it didn't work, after calling that number 2-3 hours later to find out if there was any way I could get the 2ed TV to work. Some nice tech person spent another hour getting the system to work.
Isn't the tech world a wonderful place. My head hurts. later
