The Computer Swallowed Grandma
 The computer swallowed grandma.
 Yes, honestly its true!
She pressed ‘control’ and ‘enter’
And disappeared from view.
It devoured her completely,
The thought just makes me squirm.
She must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm.
I’ve searched through the recycle bin
And files of every kind;
I’ve even used the Internet,
But nothing did I find.
In desperation, I asked Jeeves
My searches to refine.
The reply from him was negative,
Not a thing was found ‘online.’
So, if inside your ‘Inbox,’
My Grandma you should see,
Please ‘Copy,’’Scan’ and ‘Paste’ her
And send her back to me.
 This is a tribute to all the Grandmas who have been fearless and learned
to use the computer ...

Yesterday was certainly a lazy day for me. Tracey had to go in to work at 4:30 a.m. so I messed on the computer a while and then took an early morning scooter ride to get some breakfast. That was fun!
Cousins Tom & Ben joined Mom, DD and I for supper last evening at the Cracked Barrel in Morton. They went on their way after eating and didn’t come over to Mom’s with us. I’m sure they would have been bored to tears listening to us old people complain about the humidity, the government and whatever.
Tracey was home already by the time I got home from Mom’s house. She had managed to drive her scooter home between rain showers so didn’t get soaked. |

| Hello all! Just wanted to drop a line and let you and Tracy know that I strongly recommend the ISU Motorcycle Safety course! I just finished taking the class, and I passed with flying colors so I can get my license. Anyway- its a great class, and theres a lot you can learn that you wouldn’t necessarily learn on your own... and its fun too!! Safe riding to yas, and maybe ill see ya on the road! |

Hey Lizz!
Glad you dropped by! Tracey finished her safety course but I haven’t taken one yet. I was on the waiting list for a while and then finally gave it up as I didn’t want to show up just to wait, etc. I am sure it is a valuable experience and from what Tracey has told me she learned a lot too. Now just ride safe and wear your helmet! |
