1.) BIZ THOUGHT
________________
Here's the explanation of why computers sometimes crash:
~~~~~~~~~~
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and
the bus is interrupted as a very last resort, and the access of
the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet
pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the
double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your
data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your
situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house
says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but
your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's
repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall, and your
screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your
icons in the window are as wavy as a souse; then you may as
well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet,
the sucker's gonna hang!
When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and
the macro code instructions cause unnecessary risk, then you'll
have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM then
quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!

==================
On The Lighter Side: A Quest For The *Internet Secret*
Copyright 2002 Joshua Rose
==================
Indiana Jones' quest for "The Holy Grail" wasn't exactly a
cakewalk. Spiders, snakes, bad guys and a multitude of other
nasty obstacles plagued his every step.
What I have planned ought to be a piece of cake by comparison.
You see, I'm off to find the *Internet Secret*. In effect, The
Holy Grail of easy, web-based wealth and success.
Nope, this shouldn't be difficult at all. Probably won't even
break a sweat. At least I won't hurt myself, I think.
Gonna make some notes on the journey too, so when I find the
*secret*, I'll know how to get there again, just in case I can't
take it with me (I learned this from Indy).
Okay, I'm off, whip in hand, just to be on the safe side.
***Hmmm ... an attractive, well organized, carefully written
website. Well, that sounds a little difficult, but if that's all
there is to it ... well, I'll manage it.
***Oh, there's more. Here's something else ... targeted traffic.
Yeah, makes sense. Identify potential customers and learn where
they hang out on the net. Sort of like going to the local pub?
Noooo problemo. Add it to the list.
***What's this? Compelling ad copy? Well, how hard can that
be?
I watch TV. Let's write that down.
***Now wait just a doggone minute! Write an Ezine? Now don't
tell me that's not work! I know work when I see it! Scratch
that out. Let's move on.
***"Get A Million Gazillion And Thirteen Visitors FREE!"
Now
that's more like it. Now we're getting somewhere. Write that
down.
***Search engines? Geez, there's spiders here too! Who knew?
And they're smart, evolving and unpredictable? Now that sounds
dangerous! Outta here!
***Write articles. What's with all this writing stuff? Articles?
Ad copy? Websites? Ezines? Reports? Hey, don't
they know I'm
busy? Next.
***Relationship marketing. Oh? Back to the pub again.
Write
that down.
***Open rates, conversion ratio's, CPM's. What the heck?
Math
too? Yeah, right. Next stop.
***Build opt-in list for the long term. Long term? Sorry,
rents
due on Tuesday. Bye!
***"Men, Enlarge Yo ...!" Ooops. Off topic.
But ... write that
down!
***Make time to help others in market specific forums. Didn't
you hear me the first time? I said, "Tuesday"!
***"Turn $25 Into $10,000 While You're In the Shower!".
Whoa! This could be it! Note: "Fix
shower!"
***Give away something valuable, free. Oh, that's precious.
Bound to be very impressive down at the bank too. Next!
***Viral marketing? You've got to be kidding! If you think
I'm
gonna be sitting here while I'm sniffling, sneezing and feeling
achy all over, I've got news for you!
Whew! This is a little tiring after all. Time for a break.
Holy guacamole! Look at my mailbox! Boy, did I get popular!
And how did they know I was looking for the Internet Secret?
Wonderful, 347 messages telling me they've had it the whole
time!
Piece of cake. Eat your heart out, Indy.
Author's note: Perhaps the real *internet secret* consists of
many, many *little secrets*, or marketing tasks. Dozens upon
dozens, in fact, that aren't really secrets at all. Some as
simple as a signature file. Others as demanding as publishing
a newsletter.
Do a handful of them well, and the progess begins. Consistently
add new *secrets* to your marketing arsenal, and the sky's the
limit.

"Filing Facts"
=============================================
GIF, JPG, TXT, DOC, HTML, WAV, BMP, ETC
You'll see them over and over again as you encounter
manuals, web sites, and anything related to your computer.
Tons of file extensions. Whole pickup truck loads of 'em
running back and forth on the info highway.
File extensions are easy enough to understand, and with just a
bit of history, you'll know everything you need to know about
files, and not a bit more.
Back in the DOS days (DOS stands for Disk Operating System),
before the invention of Windows, every file had to be named
with a maximum of 8 characters, and could include a three
letter "file extension."
For example, lets say you want to save that recipe for Quevos
Rancheros. You were forced to use a maximum of 8
characters. So you call it queranch. Hmm, in Spanish, that's
like, "What ranch?" Or that's a loose translation, at least.
You were limited. Severely. So along comes the long file name.
You can use a whole mess of characters now, calling your file
"My greatest recipe using eggs and tortillas since the invention
of the wheel." The sentence between the quote marks is the
name of the file, or "filename."
The stated character limit is 255, but in reality it comes in
just a tad under, like 253 or something. The techies can
quibble over that. Regardless, it's l-o-n-g. And more than
adequate to describe the content of your creation!
Now, notice that many files have extensions. They all do,
really. In fact, your computer doesn't know what to do with a
file if it doesn't have an extension.
The extension is the three letter part following the main name.
(You didn't see an extension on my quevos rancheros example,
because I left it off.) Here's an example:
My Word processing report.doc
The ".doc" part of the file's name tells Windows to use the
program that's associated with .doc files to open it. So, let's
say you've got Microsoft Word installed. Whenever the
Windows operating system realizes you've clicked a file with
the extension ".doc" it fires up Word, and Word opens the
file.
Presto.
There are lots of file extensions. Here's a table for you that
includes a few common file types you may encounter during
your web travels...
