Don's Patch Issue #2005-02-15 from http://www.don-guitar.com
I'm sure enjoying my new computer. Wow, what a difference it makes
to have enough RAM and a newer/better modem. The speed of my
dial-up connection is almost twice what it was with my old computer.
I won't pretend to know why that's true, when the old computer has
a 56k modem in it too, but I do like it, you bet!
I'm also enjoying my new job with Town & Country convenience-
based retailers. I've managed to learn most of my duties well enough
but it's been a real challenge learning to prepare pastries every night.
Each of the pastries is, to varying degrees, prefabricated so I don't
have to start from raw ingredients but I do bake and glaze several
dozen assorted donuts, cookies, cinnamon rolls, and filled pastries
each night. The real challenge has been decorating some of the
cookies and donuts. I'm no artist, but the company doesn't specify
what sort of decoration is required and my friend Lisa Miller helped
me learn how to produce attractive patterned decorations that don't
require much artistic ability.
Enough babbling, time to get started on another issue. Here we go.
Remember, your input is always welcome. I value your suggestions
and comments, and I'm always willing to help you find answers to
your computer and Internet questions.

============== Humor =============
An old joke (from the Cold War days).
A Russian party-official arrives late at night to his hotel (in Russia).
He is not surprised to find that his reservation has been mislaid but
he is more than a little peeved that his status in the party isn't
enough to get him a good room anyway. However, the clerk
insists, the only bed they have left is the fourth bunk in a 4-bed
dorm and he'll have to make do with that. The Russian grumbles
but eventually he picks up his suitcase and heads for the dorm.
On his way, he meets a chamber-maid and thinking he might as
well try to make friends with his room-mates, he asks her to
bring them four cups of tea. As he enters the dorm, he finds
that the other three guests are Polish, they are having a fairly
wild party and they're very drunk. They also ignore him totally
from the moment he enters. After sitting there for several
minutes, he realizes he can't stand them anymore and decides
to pull a joke on them. He stands up, grasps a floor lamp and
speaking into the light-bulb as if it were a microphone he says:
"Comrade Colonel, we would like four cups of tea to our room
immediately!" The Poles stare at him in disbelief, which turns
to horror as the chamber-maid knocks on the door and delivers
the tea a few minutes later. In about 30 seconds the Poles have
all packed their bags and fled the hotel. Our Russian gets the
entire room to himself. He sleeps very soundly.
The next morning, however, as he's checking out and is about
to leave, the desk-clerk calls after him: "By the way, Sir, the
Comrade Colonel said to tell you he appreciated your little joke
last night!"

=================================
This is a fairly good sized issue because I was off work
the 14th and I've been at it all night. I find that keeping
to the same waking/sleeping schedule, on my day off,
makes it easier to cope with working the night shift. A
couple of hours from now I'll be asleep. My alarm is set
for 6:00 PM. When I wake up, Lisa and I will cook
ourselves some supper (we enjoy cooking together) and
get ready for work tomorrow evening. She works the
night shift in the convenience store across the street
from where I work so we normally car-pool.
As always, I had fun putting this issue together and
managed to learn one or two things and let me tell
you, my new computer has been terrific. All I ask of
a computer is that it be faster than me and while I
know that may not be difficult, this computer has
done a superlative job of it. I'm a happy camper.
*grin* See you next time.

The most important people on the Internet, for you and I as computer
users, are software developers. The world's coolest computer, without
software, is like a car without fuel. It might look great, but what
can it do? It doesn't matter who produces the software you love and
use regularly, the developers of that software need your support.
A bit of advice from Internet veteran Bayard J. Fox:
New computer users are often in awe of the things you can get without
cost on the Internet. There can be hidden costs for the unwary. Use a
"throw away" email address to register, and be constantly on guard
against giving away personal information. Use a firewall, and provide
only the barest minimum of information on questionnaires.
