Is it me, or do the younger generations lack troubleshooting skills?  Growing up in the early days of the modern generation of home computers with Windows (mid-90’s), if I wanted to do something, I had to figure it out.  Google did not exist yet.  I could search for something via Yahoo or other “first-gen” search…

The day has finally come, and I wish I could say I made it here with the Christmas spirit.  Alas, I made it, but not with the spirit, but that is fine.  The kids are having a great morning, and it should be a relaxing day (assuming the kids do not start yelling at each…

Our kitchen faucet was broken and crap, so we bought a new one.  I go to install it last night, and it did not go as well as I expected.  Switching a faucet is easy.  A complete dumbass should be able to do it.  It is never a good thing when you have to bust…
