For ages upon ages, I had this wonderful dictionary and thesaurus program that worked flawlessly on numerous windows platforms without requiring an internet connection. When I was forced into Windows 7, the program stopped working. I still fiddle with it now and then trying to find the magic to make it work again.
It was also a talking dictionary. You could punch a button and it would read aloud with some hilarious interpretations of pronunciations. But it had the best thesaurus I've ever found. I sorely miss it.
Tonight I looked at the program's files then decided to click on the HELP file. I was super excited that this would unlock the magic I needed to make this program work on Windows 7.
Incredibly I received the following message:
Is that gobbledygook or what?
I read and reread this message thinking this must be an awful April fools joke that was programmed for the wrong day.
I reread the message.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
It just makes me want to tear my hair out and cry in sheer frustration.
Or say unprintable things. ~!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@!
*SIGH*
Perhaps I will terrorize my cabinets in search of chocolate and just go to bed. To hell with writing.
Good night.

Most instructions for computers are gobbledygook to me. It took me 2 hours to just change the password for my email on my tablet. Don't ask me how I got it done. All the instructions that told you where to go my tablet didn't have. I went to so many windows that if I had to do it over again I would still be lost.
