Then it covers itself with, "In the event you have already settled this account please send us a copy of your canceled check" which I've done five times. I was in a department store one afternoon when the computers went down. The store had to close because 500 drones were standing around with no buttons to push.

The computers have got us right where they want us. We are so dependent on their performance that we no longer know how to file, compute change, correct an address or use sense.

She whispered softly into the phone, "I hope you win. Good luck." My writer-son and I are working on a project together.

He sits at the word processor. I sit at the typewriter. We dont talk about it but he regards me as someone who goes to work with a chisel and stone tablet Last week he kept punching a key over and over again. Nothing was happening. "It wont store," he mumbled.

Minutes later he said, "It wont go forward and it wont go backward. Do you know what this means?" I shook my head. "It means when I unplug this, we're going to lose a half day's work." I watched him close his eyes and gasp as' he removed the plug from the wall like it was a life-support system. When the repairman left with a check for $254, my son said, "He had to replace the Mother Board." Wouldnt you know? I get the blame, and this time it really was the computer's fault 0 1990 Erma Bombeck America cruise. Or a new 1991 Volkswagen Passat GL Wagon with Fahrvergntigen.
