"My Troubles Are Over" September 12, 2008

Great show....closing with "Harlem's Mayor" Willie Bryant's theme was excellent!

And congrats on dumping Vista, the operating system that doesn't seem to want to operate anything. No less than 5 of my pals who either bought it or had it bundled on new PC's are back to running XP...couldn't take anymore hourly crashes.

Thanks, Nick!

I am much happier these days. With our reliable XP machine having been comandeered by my wife for eBay, I'm surfing the web on a clunker using Windows 98 and doing my word processing on a 1927 L.C.Smith Model 8.

Eventually, I'll find a nice late-model XP box with lots of memory. Until then, I'll continue to sneak on the old XP machine between eBay sessions to work on my show.

Best of luck with that plan, Sir!

My wife usually parks herself in front of our computer whenever I hanker to, oh...let's say stream "Radiola"....or other important functions.
