Personal Computing
"It's really cold here ... Are we in Colorado or Canada? ... You Might have taken a wrong turn you know ... Maybe you and Natasha got mixed up on the plains and went a bit far north, God knows you can't read road signs when you don't wear your glasses, and you never wear your glasses ... They DO both start with a C ... are you sure? ... Well, I think we're in Canada ... it's cold enough ... did I mention that I'm cold?"
So for the past seven months, I haven't been able to use my webcam or file share through Yahoo because my computer thought it was in CANADA.
Next time, I want a computer with less personality.

now THAT is funny!
I used to webcam all the time, but when it broke I took it as a sign to stop. As if I had a choice!
no you don't!
You want "Windows for Girlz" (a.k.a. Mac???)
I wondered where you'd gotten to:)
I hear there are magnetic forces that draw things to Canada, or is it repl?
I once read about a computer that took over the position of office manager. When instructed by the boss to make the place more efficient, the computer commandeered the personnel records and fired the boss.
Oh, I just thought of something else. Your computer isn't approaching eighteen, is it? I'm just thinkin' it might not want to be drafted.
It seems you have some virtual intelligence going on there, Judi
Um... its 52 degrees here today, and I'm in Canada! Not such an awful place, you know...
As a matter of fact, if you really look closely at a map of North America, you will see that much of Canada is considerably south of a sizeable portion of the United States. For example, when I lived in southern Ontario, I was a lot further south than my best friend, in Moorhead MN. So much for being your "neighbours to the north".
