PO Plenty

OK. I've been trying to update the blog for several days now with many interesting items and events to report, including my return to The Stage last weekend, a story about Sport Clips, and a couple How-I-Spent-Memorial-Day-Weekend tales. Pictures were essential to the story-telling.

A few months ago I invested in my very own digital camera, so's I could create my own candid shots for fun and business. It is a Samsung. I believe I will remember that brand forever as it has robbed me of very valuable hours of my precious life. Not that it doesn't take good pictures. I'm fine with that. It's even a simple obvious operation. It's the USB/Power connection that's givng me fits. Not having had a digi-cam of my own, I don't know if it's standard to have the power charge cord and the PC connect come from the same slot on the camera. If it is, it's a bad idea. It's certainly a bad idea for this stupid Samsung. When I first charged the unit, I noticed that I had to jiggle the cord a bit before I'd get the green "charge" light. Then I saw I had to wiggle it a little more to download photos.
Today I've spent hours trying to get a connection (yes, HOURS - I'm nothing if not determined) to no avail. There been more wigglin' and jigglin' than the prime time performers at a Gentleman's Club. And for naught.
So, I give up. I will now go to the other room and sulk. And keep all these good stories to myself. Then I will look for my receipt and demand customer satisfaction from the store of origin. Well, I actually bought it way up in the Piney Woods, but there is a franchise locally and I will be forced to vent on them.
Have a nice day.
