I'm back

Hello everyone, I'm back.  This old computer has had new life pumped into it. Extra ram added, completly cleaned out of virus', and trojans.  New virus protection added, but I am still very busy. It is raining out today and I am inside.  I have reset just about everything on this computer and it is now working up to speed.  This may not seem like much to some of you, but to me it is giant steps. I grew up in the typewritter and telephone era and just the word computer scares the crap out of me.  I have a cell phone that only does phone call and no texting. I don't need to walk around while trying to acces the internet, play games, or check my bank account.  Facebook can wait until I get home and "candy crush" is a version of orange crush drinks.  I loved the world when it was simple and the phone cord could extend all over the house.  Now people can get ahold of me everywhere I'm at.  The government can now follow me around because of my cell phone, my facebook page, or this blog.  If you are the government and you are following me on this blog, you have way too much time on your hand.
I remember the days when the TV consisted on 3 or 4 channels that were free to access.  Now I have a million and one channels that I don't need.  There are channels that are just advertising and news channels that think that people falling down in some foriegn country is news. 
We are being told that the IRS is being used to target groups and criminals.  Isn't this how theycaught mobsters by using the IRS.  The tea party claims they have nothing to hide, but are pissed because the IRS is looking at them.  The next thing that we will hear is that the decendents of Al Capone are sueing because the government used the IRS to jail the mob king.
Is faster always better? You tell me.
