Contacting Capt' Stanaback - 04/22/24 05:47 PM
Hey Gang, Spoke w/the Capt' on my drive home. He has lost "ALL COMPUTER/EMAIL ACCESS! Since last Thursday". Until further notice, you may contact him directly by phone or text at 407-436-1113. Upon resolution, an update will be posted here!
Thanks in advance for understanding, as the score at halftime is Technology 19... Capt' 3!

I'm sorry Cap's having "Interweb" difficulties again...but on the upside it does present an opportunity to rag on the good ole Cap'n!!! Like the reasons for his "difficulties"...

He probably should upgrade that 286 along with the 14,400 baud modem....

Well...I don't know what the score is, but I have email...again (sorta'). After days-n-days of "Puter-Visits" to my geek, I have AOL emails on my desktop..."&" on one of my I phones (407) 436-1113..."BUT"...not on my other I phone (352) 598-1880!!
This has been an "extremely" stressful week to say the least. I have a Best Buy "Geek Squad" appointment this afternoon. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the "cookie monster" parable. I need the humor right now!
.....to be continued...
Capt. Chris
PS: 2, brand-ass-new matching Desktops are ordered and "in the wind" to (hopefully) eliminate some of this "angst"...CCS
PPS: Maybe I should just go to the range.

Capt you have more computer problems than any 10 people combined, I know of.
I would be going to the range daily, if I had such great scenery at our Club.
It's not "me"...I have been to the Best Buy Geek Squad for 2 hours...with 3 geeks working on it. It's "ALL" an AOL issue. Ever since Verizon bought them they have gone from a bad provider to the "absolute" worst!
I am staring with my next batch of business cards and from "this day" forward to actively pursue rolling all emails, etc...to Google Accounts (If I can get proper email addresses, etc.)
...to be continued...."BUT" still no emails on my 1880 phone...it is "totally" not doable!

Yup, Verizon has a good history of doing that. Same thing happened when they bought out the company that got the healthcare.gov bid shortly after the ACA was passed.
