Greetings from the Computer Shop

If you’re wondering where I’ve been, I am fixing computers! I had a computer store back in 1997 & ran it until 2005 when I moved to Hawaii. I nearly took a job in Hawaii fixing computers, but then I decided to work for the federal government and then go back to college. After that I worked for some corporations and ran an auto dealership before working for the department of commerce. Lately I’ve just been relaxing and avoiding the virus while playing games. Some of you know, years ago I hit a deer in my BMW & pinched some nerves so it took awhile to recuperate.

I had thought the HP was damaged but it actually came from the factory like that, all of them did.

I am also changing offices, this is one of the potential locations.

I was helping a friend at his computer store. I’ll be here most of the month.

It’s kind of a mess but while he’s away for the month I am cleaning things up a bit.

I’ve been troubleshooting some computers and fixing others. This kid’s motherboard has failed. It’s a pretty common issue for this particular AMD.

I actually (kinda) cleaned my keyboard! It’s still due for a replacement. I’ve only had it about 8 months but I’ve worn it out somewhat.

I was in my hometown for the 4th of July and found this cell phone outside in a shopping cart at Walmart. I returned it to the owner after some quick research. She was very thankful.

As I turn 40 this year, I am fairly excited for the forthcoming Indiana Jones film. Harrison Ford is among my favorite actors of all-time. He has the talent and the skills and he’s tough. The guy survived a plane crash in 2017, among other things! I remember watching Temple of Doom as a kid & I was so young I had to hide by the stairs and crane my head around because my parents didn’t want me to watch it, which was odd, considering they had let me watch much worse films.

I just think since my parents hadn’t seen it yet, they wanted to watch the film before I did, in case there was something they didn’t want me to see. Honestly I wish I had seen it in the theater, but I am too young for that. Later they let me watch it and of course I had already seen Raiders of the Lost Ark. Ford is also the main reason I like Star Wars. I mean, okay, AMONG the main reasons.

In my mind I feel like Harrison would call me “kid” like he does with others in his films. haha

I also wanted to comment on what happened in Canada with those statues. I feel it is disrespectful and that those children should have known better.
