Thread: Going under the knife Tuesday

Was just going online when my computer screen popped up to contact microsoft tech to resolve my problem. Foreign hackers caused
my laptop to crash so I'm going offline to replace the HP with an upgrade. Will return when I get new computer up and running.
Probably be a couple of days to get back. I shall return. Network access protection had expired and hackers had turned off all my
warnings and anti virus protections and had been using my computer for nefarious purposes. At least I was not asked to pay a
ransom to gain access to my computer cause I wouldn't have paid. Lost lots of photos but no financial loss to date. Using wife's laptop
sparingly. Keep a close watch on your systems. The tech said this was happening at an alarming rate all over the country.

Took my laptop to the computer guru today and was told I was baited, I bit but fortunately I didn't get caught. I had refused to give my email address or any other info
so I done good. The hacker was trying to get my credit card number to purchase software to protect my "network access protection". Now I know what to do next time if
it happens again. All is well and I have gained more knowledge. Microsoft does not freeze computers to get you to do anything.

That's what I'm saying. There won't be a scar. See how mine are invisible?

Man I'm trying real hard not to laugh at a serious situation. Good one for sure.

Follow the Docs orders. The skin cancer can be some serious stuff. I've had some removed 3 times, it is hard to lather up with sunscreen each time out for sure.God bless and get the wide brim hat �� out.

I wasn't making fun about it. Glad you were able to smile on one side anyway. When my bandage was removed, and I saw the 3" gash, I was resigned to the fact my nickname was going to be scarface. I kept that Vaseline packed on it. Little by little the scar disappeared. I was totally amazed. My dad died of Melanoma and it was a horrible death. I know how serious cancer is and I never want anyone to go through what he did for ten years. A buddy I fish with has spots burned or cut off all the time. He told me what he uses when he's in the sun. I'll find out and let you know. I'm going to start using it too. A big brimmed hat works good to. Tight Lines. Get out when it's safe. God Bless.

After going through this ordeal I decided to look at my PVC inventory and do something to make my favorite ride more enjoyable. I didn't go to college but did graduate
from the school of hard knocks. This is called Southern Engineering. I didn't drill any holes, just used heavy duty zip ties and can remove it easily if I need too. Did a round of mowing and was impressed with how stable it was. Super light weight and not top heavy. Think I'll put a top on the ATV next. May have spent a total of 50 bucks to keep me out of the sun.

The school of hard knocks is the best education you can buy. Whatever it takes has always been my motto.
