Superman

Look, sitting at my computer...
It's a whiz, it's a genius,
Wow! It's SuperPete!

I mentioned that my computer screen was too bright. He told me about properties, and settings, and personal preferences, and then said he'd come over and show me. What a good son.

He arrived with a sack full of stuff, sat down at my desk and gave my little mini mac a complete overhaul. He somehow injected additional oomph--I've got updated iPhoto, new email options, automatic backup--my computer is now faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.

Finally he showed me the little button sitting right on the front of my monitor that allows me to dim my screen. Duh. I felt like Lois Lane.

Pete's rescued me before, and I'm sure he'll rescue me again. He may look mild-mannered, but this guy is Superman!

I just got off the phone with my MIL. She said she was having everyone over for dinner on Sunday and then surprising her sons by asking them to help her move some furniture. :0) I told her, "Isn't that what sons are for?" And then I read your post. :0)

Again...isn't that what sons are for? ;0)

I NEED him desperately. Does he make house calls? In NC?

It's great to have a SuperSon around to help with things....especially computer problems. We all could use someone to guide us in that area. Even though my son Joe doesn't know all the 'ins-and-outs' about computers, he knows enough to keep my sanity. Big hugs to Pete...
