BACKPACK PROGRAMS

This post is being handcrafted while on vacation in new Hampshire. It is difficult, with all the immigrants taking advantage of our borders, to know if I am being used. However, since this is a blog that specializes in good news, I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed shopping for school supplies for someone who could not. It is difficult, though, because I will buy supplies for a stranger, but not lunch for someone who considers me a friend but complains about her kid when we hang out.

The Changing Face of Technology

Went to Best Buy today and was told that yes, CD players are fading out, in favor of digital music on flash drives. My new CD player is stuck, and so all my music is on a flash drive and plays perfectly. Should we avoid the change in technology? Is there anything we could do to slow it down? This was a question faced in Consumers and the law. Happy Summer from NH, and it is said that we might not have to do penance, as LSB is too busy. But he did have a new portrait up, and looks quite mature. We'll see how he feels when he gets to college. Having a cassette player in your car was once the height of sophistication. But now it would appear the future of listening to music on the road is to have no in-car machine at all, putting an end to scrabbling around the glove compartment for a new album to listen to. Ford has signalled that it is doing away with the CD players from its cars and wants drivers to access their libraries of digital music via the internet. Wallop, Harry.
