My IBM 4000 laser printer died. 

The one I use on the old computer.
It may just be a belt. It may easily be fixable.

But the location of the homegrown independent computer printer specialty shop 
has been replaced by, of all things, and Internet gaming company.

So I go looking at new printers.

I shop first, by pricing the cartridges, not the printer.I ain't buying the 
one on sale for $19 after mail in rebate.

So I get a HP 3600.

BUT....

I can't instal it on the old computer. It's Windows 95

So I take the HP C6614 printer, oh ye of the more expensive cartridges, off 
of the new computer, and move it to the old because it can run on Windows 95.

Now I can take the new printer and instal it on the newer computer, running 
on Windows ME.

All this so that I can print those damn pdf files Barnes and Noble makes me 
print when I have a book sold.

And the fact that I can't figure out how to transfer a font from one computer 
to the other. I have all my storage room book box labels in an old computer 
font, and house boxes in a new computer font.

I'm about ready to look for the Allen Font.

Well that's it. That's been my day.

I'm going to go grab the Card hardback I got from the Phoenix Lib. sale and 
head for the local buffet.

I'll sit down with soup, cottage cheese, and pears at 3PM, and eat slow 
waiting for 4PM when they bring out the pork ribs and charge everyone who comes at 
4PM two dollars.

....except I have to pick up the steak fries by 3:30 because as soon as they 
bring out the steaks for the grill, they no longer serve steak fries.

Ya just can't win.

Go have a better day than what I've been having...
