I don't mean she always knew how to fix them, I mean she just TOUCHED them & they were fine. So it stands to reason other people would have the opposite polarity.<br /><br />Maybe your special energy is really, really good for something else, but you just haven't figured out what it is yet. :)OdetteOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851511451028936152.post-70008380159228755272009-10-23T01:17:14.629+00:002009-10-23T01:17:14.629+00:00I suffer from the same affliction!I suffer from the same affliction!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851511451028936152.post-20165906426086515162009-10-22T23:46:24.187+00:002009-10-22T23:46:24.187+00:00Thank you for this.

LOL!<br /><br />I've had an apple before, and the experience to me was not that much better than a PC. This is my third laptop with Windows and I love it. <br /><br />Apples are great if you're trying to do lots of secured stuff and dont want to be invaded or something. Apples are not more secured or anything, it's just that not very many hackers have Apple skills and there are millions of hackers that are very skilled with PC. That's it. They don't have enhanced security or anything. <br /><br />Still, Apples do start up faster and the graphics are sometimes better.Lothirielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03746888926301065265noreply@blogger.com
