Well, I'm here, and Ima's computer has been revived. Her Yahoo account was cancelled due to inactivity. Her new email address is bobbeint@gmail.com. I used Gmail over Yahoo for 2 reasons. 1. Yahoo sucks. 2. One logs into blogger with a Gmail account so there is less to manage. Yossi, instead of setting up webmail, I configured outlook to handle her email. 2 reasons. 1. Webmail takes long to load, especially on dial up. 2. Too many steps to get to your mail (find the website, enter logins yada yada). Outlook is automated and simple....and quite fast even on dial up
Other than that, after 12 years this is one heck of a trip down memory lane. The sights sounds and smells. Kudos to Ima for hoarding all my junk. Like the metal container that housed a Mathematical set that I used (bought at CNA) for geometry 25 years ago. Nothing in the container, mind you - just the rectangular zach neatly arranged in my top drawer. Or the never opened package of '72 Super Ring 8 Shot Caps' used in a Purim gun circa the stone age. Or the metal can that I labeled "Savings". It's empty.
Later.

Thanks for taking me down the lane with you. Your description of things still at home, that belong to you, gave me this feeling I can't quite describe. As far as their computer, I knew you could do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY AVREMI!!!! Now please teach Ima how to use it (in SIMPLE steps, please:Yossi tried to teach her HOW the computer came to be as opposed to how to USE the computer:-))and I can´t wait till you get back to help me with my picasa/blogging issues!

Well, sniff, outlook has its own problems; but seriously - great job.
Just be warned: do not remove the Time Magazine from the Falklands War. I do Chazoroh every time I'm there.

OK now you can go home.
Seriously - what'd it take?
