Wow. This is computer stuff is hard. I worked on my mention meter all day yesterday. From 11:00am until 6:00pm when Mel called from the box to tell me that Mike McDaniels was there. Last year I called him and left a message that "The Wednesday Night Men's Club" would probably be there on Monday the 2nd. Well the consarned computer stuff had me miffed and mystified and I just forgot.

I designed the link button, and a header photo to show up in the sidebar (something I've failed at before, btw). So after designing those, and reading in "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating a Web Page & Blog " tried to properly upload those to the server, where they promptly disappeared forever, they disapeared from the computer here and are not on ther server there. I even did a search by name in the Mac finder and got nothing, nada, zip. Just gone. Good thing I backed up these guys. The button images is a live link, it's just not in the side bar, where it becomes vaporware.

So Jenni and I went to the "Box" after all last night, got there around 6:20PM, and talked to Mel and Mike for a bit, then Rich showed up just after 7:00PM. I took my camera, but in my rush to get out , I left the memory card in my card reader, so there was no point in having a "lame" digital camera. "Ain't got no gas in it."

The juke box is working yet again, but #111 Otis Redding Sitting on the Dock of the Bay still will not play. There's still sorrow in single city. That starts with an "S: and that rhymes with "guess" so I guess it's time to replace come of the Singles in AMi.

So I start the New Year frustrated by the science of html and the internet again. But I will prevail! I promise. See you soon.
