So I haven't been able to get onto the internet for a couple of days. In an effort to fix things I pulled plugs, pressed buttons, and danced around making strange caveman-like grunting sounds.
I kept getting a message saying "wireless receiver is turned off."
Today I noticed a button on my keyboard that says "Wireless."
It has taken me two days to figure this out.
Anyway, apologies for the absence, and you can expect a proper update this evening.

I kept trying to listen to music on my laptop and no sound was coming out. I could watch DVD's and use other media programs, but no, Windows Media Player would not cooperate.
Then I realised, after a day of frustration, re-downloading and re-installing software, and general pissed off-ness, that the mute button was pressed.
In other words, I hear ya, Don.
It is good to know that there are fellow Neanderthals out there, struggling away with their modern appliances. We may all be locked up in a zoo one day, but at least we won't be alone.
A few years ago the internet wasn't working, and I'd tried rebooting, reconfiguring stuff, different ports, all that jazz. I actually called the ISP for service - the modem wasn't plugged in.
I think that makes me the bigger goober.
That is some pretty gooberish behaviour. Mind you, the 'wireless' button on my laptop is actually lit up by a blue light.
