now there is a concept I like!
good thinking Andy lol!

You're better off remembering unbirthdays - you get 364 of these each
year, plus a bonus in leap years!

You remember my birthday... oh how special you are.  you is one of them
people who remembers everyones birthdays, huh?  I don't remember so good,
but I jus figure every day's a birthday, and even if I forget mine, I wake
up that next mornin and I'm all small and pink again so I know its happy
birthday to me.  ha ha ha.

Love to you Cindy

Love to Everyone!

Pigmets birthday....How great is that...We can have a cyber party for him...
Pigmet, I hope you have been taking good care of Mair...
She is such a special person and needs lots of hugs.

Mair, Glad you got your computer fixe...Bad Bad Tech man...I hope you turned
him into the place he works as an imcompetant tech and a theif...

Hugs Cindy

PIGMET:  Do you think they will have forgottin us, since we been away for so
long?

MAIR:  I don't think so, Met.  They like us a whole lot.  Anyway, they might
forget me, but they would never forget YOU!

PIGMET:  hee HEE!

MAIR: And they are such nice people, they were worried while we were gone;
they wondered if perhaps I was having a lupus flare.

PIGMET: Butja wernt! And I wasnt eether.

MAIR:  No, and I wanted to thank all the kind people who asked about
me--Sherry, Paulette and Jane; and to Shelagh and Bev for sending updates on
me.  I appreciate that so much.

PIGMET:  Yeah, what she said--me too!

MAIR:  Should be tell them what happened?

PIGMET:  Yahump! [that means yes]

MAIR:  In a nutshell, though...

PIGMET: It sure won't fit there!

MAIR:  Okay, well.  Here's what happened:  I had a noise like a blender
coming from my computer.  Not a good sound.  I opened up the computer to
find the fan on the CPU was wearing out.  Not knowing any reliable tech
personally, I called someone out of the yellow pages.  After all, we are
replacing a $5 fan here.  Probably 30 minutes labor, tops. Ha ha.

Long story short: I was at the video store ranting about all this to my
friend who works there, and she immediately said "my husband works on
computers.  We are going to get that computer back for you and fix it."

If we knew from the beginning that the whole guts were fried, I would have
had my computer much faster.  But the evil tech had stolen the RAM out of my
computer, so we couldnt test anything!  So we had to get it put together
piece by piece.  So now I've got what amounts to a whole new computer,
including much of the software

PIGMET: An the case is new an has a blue light like a flashlight on the
front, an when we don't play with the computer, then FISHES come onta the
screen; seven fishes and a REEF and a creeping starfish, too.

MAIR: That's right, that is all the really important stuff...

I am trying to stave off my yearly winter chest cold, but it feels like it
may be taking hold of me now.  I think the stress of all this computer stuff
is getting to me.  You know. Calling tech support and being put on hold...
having them take an hour to help you with something that should have taken
10 minutes.  That kind of stuff stresses me out.

PIGMET:  But don't worry!  Me and Darlene are here to take care of her!

MAIR:  That's right.  So that is all I am going to write in this post.  Just
like all the rest of you... I gotta go lie down and rest.

From your good friend Mair,
And your Devoted Nephew Pigmet
