I like second chances, a chance to wipe the slate clean and start over. In modern times most young people don't even know what a slate is. It has nothing to do with promptness. Computerization has changed our lives in terms of time and space possibly more than anything heretofore seen by mankind. Don't get me wrong, sliced bread was indeed a major breakthrough but I doubt it has had the long range positive effects on mankind that moving electrons around has had. It is positives and negatives or at least that is what I am told. Does anyone know what a digitizer is? It is another relic of the past. It is sort of like the television sets of my childhood that were built as a piece of furniture, a heavy piece of furniture made to blend in with the rest of the furniture in you living room. A digitizer is sort of like an electronic sketching pad. They can be large or small. Fortunately I have been able to transform into the computer age albeit grudgingly at times.


Unfortunately I am left with a huge piece of equipment that hardly anyone uses anymore. This digitizer board has got many things but mostly it has got to go. Look how much space it takes up in my office. It is very sturdy and I have tried in vain to think of something to use it for. I know that the world does not use these things anymore because I have tried to give it away on Ebay twice and no one will even bid 99 cents. Does this mean that the past is worthless? Well it is not a matter of the past. Right now is what matters. So onward through the fog.
