Despite
the title, this blog is not about a baseball movie starring Anthony
Perkins. It's about something that scares me-computers. I'll admit it,
I'm a computer-phobe. I always have been. I use them to write stories
and to find stuff on the web. That's about it. When they fail at those
two tasks, which I naively consider to be simple ones, I have zero
patience and assume that no matter what the issue is, it will cost at
least a few hundred dollars to fix it.
Some of you may have had similar thoughts regarding cars you own or
once owned. When something went wrong, you didn't know how to fix it,
but you were convinced that it was going to cost some serious coin.
