I loved halfies! We would cut a pimple ball in half and use a broom handle to hit them at 15th and Haines street in West Oak Lane in Philadelphia. I also loved playing hide the belt, wall ball, step ball, Dodge ball any kind of ball.
We spent our nights and weekends out playing and in the sunshine. As me dear departed saint of a mother used to say, "It's a beautiful sunny day outside!!! Why don't you go outside and play." With 8 children I can understand why she said that to us.
Her only moment of peace was when she would read the Philadelphia Bulletin in the evening for half an hour and we were not allowed to disturb her when she did.
I did temp work for LIHEAP, and learned things that made me sick to my stomach as well. I want to speak on it, but can't, but very familiar with the "magic" that goes on.
As for my garden, it's a work in progress and is the first time I haven't killed everything. I'm just fighting what I thought was nature, but I digress.
I'm a 90 year old when it comes to anything tech related, and honestly think the world will be much more peaceful without it. I'm slightly social. 😄
You are indeed an interesting fellow. God Bless Sir. 🇺🇸💛🇺🇸
Yes, it does. I'm "technically" inept. My kids set up TV and electronics. They navigate that stuff better than I. I wasn't the kid watching cartoons, on the computer, or playing videos games. I was the kid playing halfies, climbing trees and skipping rocks at the yucky city creek. I couldn't tell anyone about programs or coding. I didn't know Window's 11 existed until you posted about the durabook.
I enjoyed the piece, but struggling to understand why I’m going to need a computer that survives explosives. What will I need it for after the apocalypse? I can buy a lot of ammo and long term storable food with that money.

"I am a 90 year old..."
Every age has its beauty, as my Mother used to say.

I am lucky to a woman who grew up on an orchard and whose family still raises and sells fruit.
She is the gardener.
I follow her advise for how to do it.

What does LIHEAP stand for?
Low Income Housing Energy Assistance Program.

It is a durable computer for those who need it.
There are those who work in industries or fields that need a rugged, dependable, computer.
Military, state police, EMT's, miners, construction workers, well drillers, civil defense professionals, etc.
That is the point of the piece.
Nothing to do with the apocalypse.
Ok.
