Liam's computer is messed up for awhile. Something in it was burning. So now I have to live without him for awhile.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You turn it on
And it makes
Funky noises
And the smell
Of burning
Enters your nose

The screen goes black
The computer shuts off
On its own
Never to be started
Again

LOL.... oh, I'm so sorry Julie...

Hopefully it'll be up and running soon!

Then again, there's the good old standby - the phone - but that gets expensive after a while...

Here's to a speedy recover for Liam's computer!

Oh Julie, I hope it gets fixed soon. I know how expensive the phone bills get, because Gary doesn't have a computer. But, we do write a whole lot of letters. Good luck.

Heart Hugs,
Ethel

When the black smoke curls up 'round the mouse
And you've fumed from room to room in the house
When your disk drives sound like shifting sans clutch
Perhaps you've been surfing a little too much?
Sorry to hear of your problems..hope for quick recovery....Ken

Hope isn't lost though Julie.
