Willy and the Computer


Willy done knows that the computer is a mighty tool...when it works. Willy done knows that when it doesn't work it may be good for an anchor off the edge of the fishing boat. Well, you might figure out that Willy has had computer problems this past week.

Friday night the thing works well. Runs fast.. runs smooth. No problems. Willy shuts the blame thing off and goes to bed. Willy gets up Saturday morning and the thing wont come on. Willy done thinks the cheap power supply that HP put in this thing is done gone out.

Well, Willy moves it to the side and cranks up the old standby. Willy is lucky to have an old standby. For you see about a year ago the old standby was the main thing. However, it went out and Willy decided it was "dead in the water" and Willy went out and bought him a new one. Just for fun though, Willy took it to a local computer fix it man and $75 and it was back up and running.

Well, Willy moved it to the side and kept the new one because it was bigger and better and faster and now it is deader. But it is now at "Mr. Fixit" and maybe with a little tender loving care and about $75 more it can be running again.

If it don't I might take it down to Juanita at the Possum Grit Cantina and Bar and see if she can fix it. She knows a little about everything. I know because she told me so.

Till then Willy hobbles a long with the old stand by. Guess there is a lesson in this somewhere. Anybody know what it is.

Later
10-4 Willy
