Yo! Jhhtrainsplanes done got issues with the computer munchkins!!!
Posted by adrianspeeder on Saturday, December 18, 2004 6:02 PM
I have recieved smoke signals from our buddy that he is without a functioning computer. Seems that he has not fed the computer munchkins in a few weeks, and the the munchkins just up and left on Jim takin the operatin system with them.

Well since i am no longer any good at DOS anymore to debug the compy over the phone, I will ship down a new OS and help our buddy out.

The wind was pickin up so the smoke signals were gettin fuzzy, but i think Jim is goin through trains.com withdraw and needs a few calls to chear him up.

Well got another call from Jim and his computer has died on him. Well actually I think that the ME operating system is total junk and it cought up to him and killed the compy. As we speek a solution is in the mail headin to our buddy, and he should be back on line next week if what I have in mind works.

Catch yall later,

Well that's good news. Thanks for the update. I knew he had computer problems, but having him gone this long with no sign was curious.

He has a couple of interesting emails from me waiting on him when he's back up. Any clue how the Pine Bluff show is coming along? I'm off to Fayetteville Saturday to see if anything's improved there. Last time it wasn't worth the trip.

An update on Jim's computer. It is working, finally. Now all he needs is to find a driver for his modem. He should be back online, either today, or within the next couple of days, if all goes well. I talked with him, today, and he say's hello to everyone.
