Right Roger, I am a saver, saver, saver what I forgot to mention is that ALL
of the work on my computer is done by an ex-biker friend of my husbands who
is self-taught and he will re-download XP so that the hibernate will work
properly. He accepts no pay for working on my computer for hours at a time
but then I have cable and he has dial up and he fixes while we shop for
produce on Thursdays and he can get the programs that he needs and burn them
and take them home with him [sigh] it seems like it is always something

Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's looking.
