:-) DON'T MESS WITH GRANDMA!

An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle.

She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her voice, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car..!!"

The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out and ran like mad. The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then it dawned on her why.

A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces further down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station.

The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.

If you're going to have a Senior Moment, make it a memorable one!

Afterthought: A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality. -JFK

-Computing Tip

AutoCorrect in Microsoft Word

Do you use many of the same words when typing up documents in Word? Do you have many long names, phrases words etc that you have to type and would like to have Word correct or change these words for you automatically?

You may try customizing the autocorrect feature, that is available through the ‘Tools’ menu in Microsoft Word.

There are already several default autocorrect entries set up in word such as, common misspellings, special characters and arrows and more.

Computer Problems ?……….Hardware failure?

Computer running slowly?Don’t understand your software?

Internet problems?…………..Don’t know what to do next?

· Help to buy, set up and use your computer

· New or refurbished systems to suit your budget
