Here's a Fun Idea

It’s the weekend; time to be playful!  I take my inspiration from Nick here,  who was building computers from the time he was 11, using about the same components as E.T. used to make that famous phone call home.That’s what he does for me- connect me to the world I mean. Yesterday he put a new keyboard in my laptop and installed my new  Ultra HD Flip video camera. Last week  he spent a mere three hours accomplishing what not one human being at Verizon OR  Blackberry could do over a period of nine whole months even when I brought both laptop and Blackberry TO them and that was: to sync the darn phone to Outlook. Nick did it while watching Sherlock Holmes and texting with his fiancée in St. Louis.It's fun for him, all that trouble-shooting. People born after 1990 don’t think like the rest of us; to them the world is play. I have learned this from knowing Nick, who also is an EMT and an Eagle Scout. has a black belt in Karate, makes his own mead and sometimes wears a  kilt.Here's a minute or so of  him describing his idea of fun around the spattering, smearing and spurting of  fake blood.[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YyBJkSu8_Q]Maybe you can consider such entertainments for yourself today. Me I’m playing laser tag. :-)
