Woman v. Computer


 

This may be a dull, uninteresting post but one with a message. This is the story of how I am working hard to make sure all the files on our website are “up to snuff.” In the past few days, I have been revisiting them, one at a time, and there are many! I have been updating information, and reformatting as necessary. For example, this morning, I spent the entire morning, reformatting the large file about Bible Blocks. I’d posted it in 2003, and when we were redoing all the files, that one, somehow managed to slip way down on the page, so it looked like a blank page, when the file was open.

I am getting to be proficient as this business of being “assistant webmaster.” Basically, I am too determined and too ornery to wait until the webmaster has time to help, so I do whatever I can, and only start wailing, if things go terribly wrong and require the help of an “expert.”

Jim has shared this thought: Whenever a woman has a problem, she asks another woman how to solve it. Whenever a man encounters a situation for which he needs help, he consults a book. The thought is comical because probably, it is true. :)

I am patting myself on the back for having solved the problem of the slipped file. I just had to put on my thinking cap in order to beat the computer and its pre-programmed code. Which only goes to prove that man is actually “smarter” than machines. We invent them, right?

Back to work.

Pat
