Notes About The Poem

Wil thought if he put Youtube on my desk top I could watch all kinds of free movies. I didn't really need it and I shouldn't have let him touch my computer because he has his own and I hear him swearing at it all the time. Anyway, he sat down and pushed some buttons and then I couldn't log onto anything. It would be on about 3 min. and then sign off and start re-booting on it's own. I called telus who has my security and they gave me a number to call and they helped me get it back online. Didn't cost me anything which is such a relief. If I had gone to a computer repair shop it would have cost at least $100.00. It took me all afternoon with them on the phone but my puter works like always now.

(did the big bad man hurt mama's little baby? huh?)

Oh No He Fixed It

My husband fixed my computer,
But the computer wasn't broke.
He said I could watch movies,
See people as we spoke.

I didn't really want it.
I have T.V. for that.
He sat down and pushed some buttons,
And now it's full of scat.

Now I have to have it fixed.
Heaven knows the cost.
I had no troubles with it.
Now everything is lost.

I can't log onto anything.
Three minutes and it exits.
Remember well this warning Friend,
If it ain't broke don't fix it.

True enough. Don't meddle with anything if iit is functioning well. As for the sound, you can easily eliminate it from the settings.
