Yesterday, after months of exploration and a lot of preparation on my existing two PC's, I bought a Mac. The Apple store isn't convenient, and is always mobbed but the people who work there are smart and responsive and so I make the trip. I have yet to master my iPhone but these folks helped with

Poor Jake, he just has no luck and he is with my group again. www.arf.petfinder.com He was in home after home and there is always an excuse. If my home wasn't on the market and if I didn't already have a house full......but alas it isn't possible now. Jake is a perfect gentleman, 11 years young a

So my plan is to buy a new Apple product and try to retain my incomparable data on my small travel computer. I have a Click Free that I use to back up my data. I called the company and was advised it won't work on anything Apple but restoring to a comparable computer should be easy. I should have

I had an appointment earlier. While waiting, I got talking with someone I know who told me a story about her family and the strange machinations that happen with them. Long story short, my friend has a brother who isn't particularly swift or interested in being in his family. And then I heard it:
