Computer breakdown

Yesterday I was, as they say in Texas, fixin' to change the puzzle and to post the weekly book review, when my computer crashed. Yikes. I'd been meaning to back things up . . . Fortunately, Jessie at our full-service computer shop/phone company got the system up and running (http://www.wwt.net/ ). And, as long as we were there, Carl and I stopped postponing the purchase of new hardware and software. So next week we'll have new everything--as well as a double hard drive and external back-up drive.
