March 26 a new day

no, I did not start my day with a beer - this is last night after dennis had settled in the tent. Kindle protecting beer from more protein. 

I hate the Belkin keyboard with my mini IPad - this is an infomercial rant - for serious bloggers, or writers on the go, do not depend on this contraption for allowing your best words to flow forth. Once I found the blessed apostrophe, it's still not easy to access, it's back to hunt and peck and now I have a personal understanding that tools are important. I am one with my mac airbook, I adore it. It brings out the best in me.

This ***** thing first of all does not keep the computer upright, it keeps slipping and now the corner edge that holds the iPad in place broke, second time, first time was the the second time I used it and got a replacement. getting older and going to college does not guarantee smarter.

as Obama would say, let me be clear - there's no problem with the IPad, it does what it`s supposed to. I saw a woman using her mini IPad with a much neater and sturdy keyboard all in one and she bought it at Best Buy. Why did I think the apple store in Brattleboro would sell me the best configuration? 

yes, the regular-sized Ipad has a good keyboard attachement set up, but I wanted something smaller and lighter. Note to self - do not skimp on tools of the trade. Lug the extra weight, and the pay off could be better output, worth its weight in satisfaction.
