Alphabesillies with Jake...

Just a minute...
I gotta catch up here and do the letter * I *
CAUSE I MISSED IT!
How come?
Well, it has something to do with my computer
and tech support, starting with....

Oh whattheheck, I'll just show ya, you'll figure it out...





Then after two l.o.n.g. hours...

AGH!!!




So, after taking things back to factory settings, another crash less than 24 hours later, another even longer time with someone who's computer etiquite consisted of passing gas and yawning continually, two days later, I FINALLY FOUND A WAY TO TALK TO SOMEONE I COULD UNDERSTAND! SOMEONE  IN THE GOOD OL USA :) AND ALTHOUGH SHE LIVED IN 'THE DEEP SOUTH' (tee hee)


She got recovery software disks headed to me that day :) And didn't insist I send $30 for shipping!  (as someone else who, even if I could have understood him, blurred words with obnoxious bodily sounds)  WTH, I got this computer in AUGUST!  The word warranty applies here mr I'minIndiaonabike dude...grrr

So.....


(this is the happy 'stick' version of me)


This week ya get a little tune sung by the
JUBILEE JUG BAND
that starts with the letter I :)



Guess things could always be worse....

MWAHAHAHA:)

JUST GLAD TO BE BACK!





Come Join Us...

I just learned that if you get someone on the other side of the world, you can ask for someone in the U.S. to help you. I don't know if I believe it, because I have my own private tech support, but next time, it's worth a try.

Welcome back, Jakie!

Yippee! You're back!
And how funny you describe your adventures in getting your computer fixed!
Life can move on now.
All is well.

Jane said...

Too funny - I love that ditty! We've sadly had some of the same experiences with tech support....grrrrh!

Unknown said...

LMAO! I think I've talked to those same people... for the computers not the Jug band cause I talk to them daily in my head;-) Great post, welcome back!

Seriously, though, it is SO frustrating trying to communicate with people whose English is not really up to the task.

I left a comment yesterday and didn't hear back from you so figured you didn't get the message. I still think you better check under the bed or in a box that may yet to be unpacked because you're missing something. If you can't find it then you might as well belly up and float on top.
On a side, how is your dad and Kelly?
Give me a write or something like that.

What a frustration! I'm glad to read that you got satisfaction in the end, but sometimes you just can't get past the person on a bike in India.

Nonna said...

So glad your computer will soon be mended and all better...that was a cute post too !!!

Sue said...

ROFL...I'm sorry (not really LOL)

I do hate to laugh at your misery, but this post was just too funny!

Glad you are back!

Hugs

Tech support usually lacks support. And techs. Go figure.
Lol at the silly song!!!

Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoriti said...

I'm glad you were able to get your computer up and running again! I know how frustrating a crash and then multiple tech support "chats" can be ...{{{{shiver}}}}}

Jenny said...

I am Just elated that you've fixed your computer.

I think I've talked to all those same people myself!

Thanks for the laugh, Miss Jake, although I suspect it wasn't quite as funny when you were waiting for help.

A+
