Had two appointments to help people with computer issues. At ten, showed Susan how to have both keynote and quicktime player on the screen at once. Amazing to me how many people don’t know the teeniest bit about what their Macs can do. Then tried to help Nancy get access to her old Yahoo/SBCGlobal/AT&T email account. Andrew had worked with her and run into strange responses from AT&T sign-in. I ran into the same weird shit. AT&T is nuts. Found another angle, finally got her signed in, but the email service was not visible. She is going to take it to the AT&T store and show them.
After lunch I went and walked around the annual Palo Alto Art Fair, filling up University ave. Took some candids, here’s one.
There’s a well-known poem, the actual title is “Warning”, but the opening lines go,
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple,
And a red hat that doesn’t go…
This dude has that spirit.
Ate supper in my room alone, and then, ta-daa! I clean my refrigerator. It’s a nice thing to do every year or two. Or three. Not sure when was the last time, but anyway, did it now. It’s only a little half-size one and I don’t keep a lot of stuff in it, so emptying it, cleaning all the shelves, and putting stuff back took like 20 minutes. But that’s done.
