I am sorry to announce that I am going to have to take a break from updating for awhile due to a family situation. I should be able to begin updating again by October. Have a great summer, and keep checking back for updates. I have many things in the works, it will just be a matter of time before all of this gets up and running correctly. Expect to see a major change in the look and feel of the page, not to mention new and exciting content in the future.

Thank you,

Kelsey Murphy

Keyboard HISTORY

Here is a cool article that I came across today. ---

"Today's keyboards aren't what they used to be, no sir! Back in my day, we had our BS technology; our keyboards had chassis's which allowed 'em to be thrown off a 3-story building and still work - barely dented. Yes those were the days. Now we've got these newfangled Wireless Ergonomic E-Mail button membrane keyboards. To heck with them, I say!"

Internet Explorer Shortcut

Do you get tired of typing out all those long urls while surfing the web? Well one quick keystroke can make it a bit faster. While surfing with Internet Explorer you can press Ctrl+Enter to add the http://www. and the .com. This shortcut is limited to .com address only. It doesn't work with .net.

Example- To go to www.Yahoo.com all you must do is type this into the address bar - Yahoo then press Ctrl+Enter. It will automatically put it in the form http://www.Yahoo.com and it will bring up the page. This works the same way for all .com addresses like Hotmail or Google.

Just a little tip that I use everytime I surf the net. I hope it makes your day a little easier. :)
