    Yes.  I was trained in how to dial a phone, turn on the TV (physically,) and turn the key to a car.   I was beaming when I was able to do all three. That's all.  Big Winks and Smiles! This post was edited by Merlin at October 12, 2018 11:59 PM MDT

  • You know ... physically turning on a TV is becoming a lost art.  You should give classes! :)  Thanks for your reply, Merlin.  :))

    I don't think mine actually has a power switch.

    This is exactly the ONLY TV we had in our house until about 1985.  I'm not kidding.  It was so embarrassing when my friends came over.  We weren't' a big TV watching family.  We were more an outdoor family.  Come to think of it, the only time the TV was on was for Star Trek and The Johnny Carson show.  I was never allowed to watch Johnny.  It was WAY past my bedtime and I wouldn't have understood the jokes anyway.
    To make matters worse, when Mr. Bill was around, I didn't even know what SNL was!  All my friends would joke about the episode on Monday. I was clueless but laughed like I knew what was going on.  Oh, I'm so glad I'm old enough to decide what to watch on TV.  ;) ;)

  • WOW!! How cool is that!  Embarrassed?  I wish I had my old Curtis Mathis console TV back again.  Thanks for sharing!  You brought back a few memories ... I'll tell ya!

    She has no boobs.
    Yes, I was an Electronics Technician in the Navy. I could fix just about anything electronic. I once got in trouble for fixing a piece of equipment that was used to check detonators for nuclear warheads. Civilian techs only.

    It was quite funny and I notice everything. My students used to think I had eyes on the back of my head.

    I think my boobs were crossed and I posted those backwards, side by side only in the wrong wattage. 
    Shoot!  I don't know what I did there but I know you know what goes where.  Obviously, much better than I. 
    Always in training, I am. 
    Big winks and smiles!

  • You do realize that you are presently on a computer.  You'd be surprised what you might be taking for granted.  Regardless ... thanks for your answer, Pearl.

    I know the basics to where I can get by. I’m not an expert by any stretch. This post was edited by Rizz at October 13, 2018 10:13 AM MDT

  • I am trained to call my daughter or son-in-law when there is a problem that I can't figure out.  They are my go-to for everything tech, because as my daughter teases, I am too "Amish" to know better.

  • Yes they sure do.  Thank you very much.  I forget the actresses name at the moment, and it's making me crazy.
