This is as close to a tree we will have this year.
I don't think I could make one this nice either!

To all my nice friends on the Neuropathy Board!!!!

I'm learning how to make videos.

I just made a Merry Christmas video for you all. I'm learning how to do the google and youtube thing. Haven't got the youtube thing down yet, but I do know my google.

Very cool Mel!! I loved it!
I just love Technology! My family had an Internet Christmas this year. Since we're spread all over the US now we all got on our webcam and that way we could all watch my granddaughter and everyone else open their gifts......it was a really neat way to be able to have Christmas.......next best way to being there!

You guys are soooo good at all the animation. I have not played around with it....what a bore I am. Thanks for all the color and action! And happy holidays, which ever one you happen to be celebrating!

Roxie.

You gotta hand it to technology. How else can so many people see each other at the same time, start chatting away, and do it live. Kind of like the old version of video-phones. Remember, years back when they tried to make video-phones, only the video part was so choppy, it never really took off. Maybe the super rich have it, but not the everyday people.

Well, the everyday people now have their own tools. The webcam.

My friend's son (who was adopted), just learned he has a sister in Poland. I wish I could have been in that house when he turned on HIS webcam, and she turned on HER webcam, and in 3 seconds or less, a brother and a sister, who recently never knew the other even existed, well now they are actually seeing each other. I think this is a miracle, I really do.

Now I have friends with computers and webcame and they won't go near them. Don't ask me why, I think they think if they touch the computer, it's going to explode or something. And these are people younger than I am.

I embrace technology. It doesn't rule me. I simply use it as a tool.

I am now learning to upload to youtube. I am learning to convert my video files into youtube friendly files.

Now that's a statement I never thought I would be posting on a message board. But hey! this is 2007.

Got to role with the times!!!!

I bet within 5 years (and I told this to Alan last night), we'll all be wearing rings with built in telephones. We'll put the ring to our mouth and start talking into it.

MAYBE SOMEONE WILL BE ANSWERING!!!!

ET PHONE HOME!!!!! lolololol

mel

That was really cool, Mel.

I enjoyed it... complete with the New Yawk accent! LOL

But I thought you'd at least be wearing a goofy Xmas hat! (or something)...
Maybe next time?

We are still futzing with the computer here...it is getting very wearing.
My son is coming on Sunday (if there are safe driving conditions), to upgrade us, with more RAM and a new bigger harddrive. He will attempt to fix the router problem, and I am springing a new printer on him that we just had to buy, as our old printer gave up the ghost 2 wks ago.

If the 3 downloads to the existing router do not fix my internet snafus, then we will have to replace the router too. As it is I can only get on the net
"sometimes" and for short periods only.

I guarantee that if I ever learn how to upload to youtube (I'm trying, believe me, I'm trying), that Alan and I will make a funny video.

Got to spread all the christmas joy from our house. Oh yeah!!!!

I emailed Frank that his father was having foot surgery. He said "oh wish him luck for me". That really went over big with Alan.

So at least, Alan has me. We went to Dunkin and chatted with our neighbors.

Thank god we can at least walk around the corner.

AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE A NEW YORK ACCENT!!! I never knew that. lol
