There was a song I heard sung at my dad’s funeral, sung by my younger brother. I learned it soon after that and sang it at my church at times during special music interludes. I’ve forgotten some of the words so I was doing various searches for it and I can’t find it anywhere. I… Continue reading Looking for a Song

Bye-Bye Stream 3
The repair on the Stream, unfortunately, didn’t last very long at all. Now I have 2 buttons that don’t work at all and some more on the way out. I’m too disgusted with the device to send it in for repair again, so I’m looking into buying the Orbit Player. From what I can see… Continue reading Bye-Bye Stream 3
Sharing My Seventieth Birthday Present
I love noisemakers and this audio should prove that, he-he! I’m hoping that Elten gets fixed so that the audio isn’t clipped at the beginning. George Wu requested this.
Along the Road in German
A friend of mine, she’s an inactive user on here as well, just gave me a German course today. There’s audio and text, PDF in this case, but at least I’ll have something to look at, even though it isn’t designed to be synchronized with the audio. I’ve converted the PDF to text and have… Continue reading Along the Road in German
Toy Mania
Well, howdy, folks. I’m back with another game I don’t know how to play. After a frustrating time with 7Zip I finally got this thing extracted. I’ve played this game quite a few times now and have yet to collect any keys with which to get out of the toy store. I have had fun,… Continue reading Toy Mania
Microsoft Teams, Buyer’s Remorse?
Well, not quite, since I’m using the free version, and glad of it. Earlier today I was trying to help a friend find me, which I thought would be an easy task, seeing as how we were on Skype together. It turns out, hardly anything is easy when using Teams. What I finally did was… Continue reading Microsoft Teams, Buyer’s Remorse?
Constant Motion by Sam Tupy
I recently heard about this game, really a series of mini games, and soon after that, my curiosity got the better of me, so I downloaded this thing. I’m still running this game in trial mode, trying to decide if I want to purchase it. I may not even be able to buy it, depending… Continue reading Constant Motion by Sam Tupy
Adventure with Dual Lingo
To try and give myself some structure in learning German I downloaded Dual Lingo. The first time I tried downloading it the other day I couldn’t figure out how to get it to start the download. Today, though, I was persistent and got the app installed on my iPhone. Here’s where it gets interesting, or… Continue reading Adventure with Dual Lingo
Victor Reader Stream 3, Problem Already
This morning, I tried to get the time on my fairly new VR Stream 3. Nothing happened. I reset the Stream thinking it was a software problem. Still nothing. Then I got to noticing that the button that tells time, sets the sleep timer and gives info about the characters on each number when writing… Continue reading Victor Reader Stream 3, Problem Already
My Eulogy to Skype
It seems most folks in the blind community, or in this community at least, are rejoicing the demise of Skype, but I’m definitely not in that camp. A distant cousin of mine told me about Skype, and I thought, nah, why Skype? For quite awhile I didn’t do anything about her recommendation but at some… Continue reading My Eulogy to Skype
