NEW CLEAN CAGE!!    Thanks San!

Bluemoon........  the covered bridge has just undergone some needed maintenance. Here's a video report from my local news channel:

http://www2.tricities.com/news/2012/apr/19/covered-bridge-re-opens-time-festival-ar-1855260/


Two of the people I work with live in Elizabethton and I'm very familiar with the bridge. At Halloween, there's always a "haunted walk-through" and the annual festival there is named after the bridge. It is pretty. I like it best in winter I think. At night it has white lights strung across it and there's a wreath hung in the middle. I can't find a picture with the lights, but here's one with the wreath:

CBB, that is a beautiful picture in the snow.  I am glad to hear the bridge has undergone renovations and they are preserving their history.  That area is so beautiful.  We sat in the park that morning and just watched the water trickling over the dam and then walked all over the park and over the bridge.  That was a real challenge for me as I am afraid of water and heights!  We are going back around June and through that area on our way to Shenandoah valley.  I am currently unemployed (company moved out of the state) and am getting back into my genealogy research.  Trying to put together a Family genealogy report for our family reunion so everyone will have a copy but it has become such a job that I don't know whether I will get it done in time or not.

San, I used that same picture as my background at my old job.  It is a very beautiful picture.

I know............ I'm technologically challenged, and way behind the times, but........

I don't know how to Twitter.

I don't understand it. On TV, you see these long lists of posts or tweets or whatever you call them, and the TV host invites you to "join the conversation". I've tried 2 times to "tweet" but I really just want to see the list they are talking about. How do you do that??

If I want to read someone's tweets while I'm at my computer, I just put as where I want to go: https://twitter.com/ plus their twitter addy.

Example: 

https://twitter.com/#!/kctv5

https://twitter.com/#!/JudgeJeanine


Notice the prefix for twitter addy is the same.  After the / you can put in the addy.  See?  And that's why I know how to finish out a twitter address when one of our monkeys posts a tweet and fails to put in the full address.     I can see the tweeters name, and all I have to do is add the prefix, url tags and then it's a working, clickable link. 

If that's clear as mud, here is the link for twitter help center:  http://support.twitter.com/

1.  You really do need to get a twitter account.  Just like Myspace and Facebook you have to be a member of Twitter to read Twitter (I think   )  

2.  Do what Muffy said, LOL.  


I don't know that much about Twitter either.  I know the basics and that's about it.  

I have have a twitter account and it is:  https://twitter.com/#!/klaasend

It's not a personal one it's an SM one

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, Muffy!! 

OK............ I'm going to have to break down your post. LOL! Seriously, I'm going to have to decipher it like I do exams or government regulations.  I'm so excited............ I feel like you've given me a prized decoding sheet and I can now break into the safe!   

It's late, so I'll give it a try in the morning when my head isn't so cluttered. Coffee and safe cracking in the A.M.!!      

Klaas.......... OK, if I get to your account, will it show me a list of things people have twitted you like I see on TV when the host says "Join the conversation?"

Will I become a Twit?   

I'm sure it's simple once you know how, right? I remember, (to my great embarrassment) the first time I used a computer. I started typing. I typed a line. It appeared that it was near the end of the first line, so I started looking for the "return" key. I looked and looked and just couldn't find it. Did I get up and walk away? Noooooooooooo................. I called my neighbor to ask him where it was. 

I couldn't understand a word he was saying for almost 5 minutes. He was screaming with laughter! He ended up coming over.......... I honestly think he just wanted to see it for himself!    He has a doctorate in finance and, at the time, had been teaching at the University for years. Computers had been part of his life forever and we're good friends, but he just couldn't pass that one up. He kept showing me stuff about the internet and I wasn't interested.   

Not long after I finally started playing around just a little with "the web" on my nifty dial up modem, I decided to see if I could find a leather skirt for winter. I wanted a mid calf length and couldn't find one locally. OMG..................... I will never forget it! One late night, after everyone was in bed, I clicked a link, and it was a porn site! Not only was it a porn site but it had audio! There was this woman moaning and groaning and breathing in my den!! I tried to "x" it away like my neighbor taught me, but she just kept moaning no matter what I did! He had told me to never shut down the computer manually so I was afraid to just shut it off with the power button and she just kept breathing!! I had NO idea about the volume controls and she was LOUD! I had made the picture go away, but that woman wouldn't shut up! I kept thinking............ nobody can last this long, who's she kidding?! I almost died when my 8 year old came staggering in................... she woke him up!!!

At that point, I pushed the power button! FINALLY, she shut up!   

Hopefully, my adventure into twitter won't be so eventful.

I am having my morning coffee AND laughing my self silly.   

This is the funniest thing I have read in a long time!!!

I needed this this morning.  It is hard looking for a job without having a good sense of humor.  I am ready for my day.

CBB, thanks for the humor.  I am still laughing.

I read peoples twitter accounts by going to https://twitter.com/#!/search-home

Once the screen comes up I look up tweets by putting names in the search box.  You can even see what other people tweet them...lol

Just copy and past the link because it automatically doesn't work when you click on the link I posted.  You can really search anything you want.
