Last Monday, Wife Eva got a new iPhone, an iPhone 13 Pro. She wanted the 1TB version but the Apple store sold her the 512GB one instead, after telling her they had the 1TB model. I will eventually inherit this one, in sierra blue it is. She has ordered the correct one on Amazon, so… Continue reading Singin’ the iPhone Blues, Sort Of

One Drive and Audacity
Hi! Wow! It has been awhile! The other day I finally succeeded in logging into the One Drive site and clearing everything out. When I first set up this computer I plunked a lot of stuff in what I thought was My Documents. It turned out to be One Drive My Documents so the darned… Continue reading One Drive and Audacity
My German Journey
Well, today, I finished that old book of thirty-eight German lessons. That book was written before the ß came into use, so all words that have that are misspelled today, such as Strasse. Note, that’s the way they spell it. I think this is still acceptable, but it is old-fashioned, like some of their other… Continue reading My German Journey
The Example I Referred to in My Previous Post
This is an instrumental version of the John Lennon song Love. A sensitive ear will pick up the dry tracks.
a Wandring Mind
This will most likely be a rambling post, and a reason why I don’t categorize anything. My first thought is that I wish I understood more about making music using MIDI. The closest I ever came to that was when I owned the Yamaha PSR-3000. Even then some of the tracks were dry and I… Continue reading a Wandring Mind
Last Update on the German course, for Quite Awhile
I received another email from my librarian. She told me this new German course they’re working on is from 2011. I’m very happy and excited! Now, it’s just the waiting and waiting for it to actually be completed. I know this will take some months to do, but still, I’m ecstatic that this one is… Continue reading Last Update on the German course, for Quite Awhile
Some Movement on the German Front
This morning I got an email from my librarian saying that a Braille and audio German course has started in development. It will take months for it to appear but at least the process has actually started. I only hope it’s newer material than what I’m studying now. When I was studying about colors, for… Continue reading Some Movement on the German Front
What I’m up to Lately
After a long and frustratingly fruitless search on BARD, that’s my library site, I finally emailed my librarian to see if there is a Braille German course available. She sent me the book number of the only one they have now. It’s a really old course, the Braille version copyright 1950. I am learning a… Continue reading What I’m up to Lately
The Fourth Song
How ’bout some comic relief, huh? This one is an old country song called I Wouldn’t Take Her to a Dogfight.
The Third Song
I want to change genres again and give a sample of my easy listening folder, plus at the same time, a sample of the better microphone I had in my possession later, when I’d basically lost my voice. Though I can still sing, I don’t have the endurance or the range, or the power I… Continue reading The Third Song
