21st Century Boy

Here's a good website I ran across while reading The Independent tonight. 21st Century Boy

The author of the site realized he didn't know how to change a tire, tie a tie, or shave properly, and figured other young men didn't know how to either. He was right, and he now has a very successful website with what I think are some useful tips . Besides the ones mentioned above there's one telling how to hold a baby and another about how to check for testicular cancer.
Anyway, I emailed this one to my son because I'm pretty sure he doesn't know how to do any of this stuff either.

Web Woes

Blogging to the sound of my son wailing on his new blues harmonica. He sounds pretty good( no I'm not just saying that because you're my son).

It was overcast and windy, with a sprinkling of rain today. Perfect day to work on the website.
Only the website is in a shambles. My fault really, as usual ,I jumped in over enthusiastic , didn't read the directions, and made a mess. Now I have to go back and follow the directions step by step to fix it. I was so annoyed with myself, I nearly ruined dinner . Too busy thinking about what I was going to do, that I left three pans on the stove on high heat. I caught it in time and only slightly burned a bit of the rice.

My friend had to fill in at the last moment for a student orientation at the university, so he still isn't aware of the web woes. Hope to have it fixed before he clues in , not that he knows much about websites .

I've always had a fantasy that my neighbour would be a handyman (not person, man!) Preferable a good looking one . Now I've changed that to wanting a geek next door and not really caring what he would look like. I don't know a single computer nerd or handyman . All the men in my life have always been bohemian artsy types and not at all handy . So I putt along trying to figure it all out myself. My girlfriends are nice, but only good for chatting and shopping.

Now I feel like a wilted leaf of lettuce. Time for another movie !
