WD-40 is good but duck tape is better. It doesn't run or leave behind oily stuff. Just don't try to peel it off. OUCH! Good to see (relatively speaking lol) you guys again. Did some puttering too and running around doin' other stuff but getting to the point where I can reach into my pocket and pull out a buck, priceless IMO. Looking into getting a big screen TV and no...not a Samsung. I'd be too tempted to tell Uncle am where he can stick...never mind. This from Kmart. They have a lease program where you can lease a big screen TV for not much every month with an option to buy it. All those monthly payments go towards the cost of the TV, providing you go with the plan. Guess what...I can actually afford it. If it can double as a monitor all the better. No more watching vids on a little TV that you have to sit practically on top to see and hear it. Lol

Don't forget YMMV and all that good stuff. But then again think of that poor turtle wading uphill in molasses. Real low mileage there.

Well there ya go... not that I've ever needed to remove lipstick from there or anywhere else.

What does that say about my past g/fs?  They were either cheap or plain couldn't afford it.

Seriously, though, WD40 has a multitude of uses... many that were not even thought of when the product was developed/released.  In fact, my sister once sent me an email with a 1001 uses foe WD40.  I no longer have it - reformats/drive failures, etc - but I'll ask to see if she still has it.

In any event, 'tis bloody marvellous stuff.

starkers... 1001 uses. lol. How about 2,000+? In alphabetical order for your convenience...

Hehe, back when I first started dating, lips were only just coming into fashion.  Lipstick came much later.

Age-wise, I'll be 62 in 42 days... tho mentally I'm still a teenager, and physically I feel 92... damned arthritis and all that.

Yeah, that's it.... downloaded and saved in docs + backup drive.  TYVM.

Leave it to the doc to find the good stuff. Speaking of which......went to the computer doc today. Total cost to fix the laptop, $250.00, well within my price range. Just needed a new screen. HD is 100%, memory's good, everythings good. Guys gonna return it to factory specs no charge. Another good part, he's willing to hold it till the end of the month. Has Win 7 home premium installed, another plus. Second plus, picked up a 19 inch TV/Monitor for $50.00, not too shabby. Gonna have some toys to play with. Yaaay me!

Howdy Uvah.... good to see you popping back in....  

great tip...thanks... I usually use eucalyptus oil for that kind of thing.... it's a bit more smelly... but still effective.... I'll try WD40 next time...

Gooey stuff aside, went to the 'puter doc after he called me. He said the laptop most likely will cost more than anticipated. Soooo...I'm gonna take  that two fifty and get me a small one for now, as in inexpensive. The hard drive I saved. I should have by the end of the day an enclosure for it so I'll be able to access what's on it. The TV/Monitor has HDMI so I got a cable for it. Next comes cable itself, just basic stuff with internet. Slowly but surely I'm gettin' there.

Good learning thread about WD 40 . Injecting WD 40 in my old joints got me moving again.

That depends on how you define joint. The one you open a door on, hold with two fingers or with all five with a welcome handshake.

Not sure about the ICRAIG but with most android touch screens you can enlarge a page by sliding 2 fingers away from one another on the screen and to make smaller you pinch or slide 2 fingers towards each other. Also do this.

Go to Settings

• Tap Accessibility→Magnification gestures
• Turn the switch at the top of the screen to “On”
• Now you can zoom the entire display by triple-tapping the screen with one finger
• Another triple-tap will turn zoom off
• You can pan with two fingers held down
• You can change the magnification with a two-finger spread or pinch 

This enlarges the entire page though and not just the font.
