Hi there! I hope you are still alive and kicking!
- Hi
- Is that all you say to greet me?
- I said HI
- Please don't type in CAPS. It's like shouting at me!
- But I am shouting at you! Besides, haven't you already told me that TypePad has me in CAPS in your Categories?
- No! Not in Caps! In Bold.
- I am bold and beautiful, aren't I? This is why you can't live without me.
- You are impertinent!
- Is that a compliment?
- I'm going to delete you!
- Look who's talking! A barking dog never bites!
- See what I mean ? You are impertinent! I've upgraded you and made you electronic. What's more, I've been posting you on TypePad for soon 18 years now! You are no longer ...a miserable paper notebook! Count your blessings!
- I don't have any blessings to count! The last time you opened my electronic pages was back in 2009! When my pages were made of paper, you used to open them every day!
- True, but there was no Internet then, no blogging, no TypePad, no Facebook.
- Maybe so, but there was TV and all those boring books you loved to read! "Bleak House" or "Murder in the Cathedral", for example! But you never neglected me! You always made time for me.
- I still make time for you.
- No, you don't! You are neglecting me and I am worried about being electronic!
- Why worry?
- You can't lock me like you used to do so that no-one reads me, except you.
- Ah right....but...you see, now that you are electronic - alias e-diary - you have so many other privileges. You have a password!
- Yes, dear diary - a password!
- What's that?
- Well, it's a string of characters that allows access to a computer! This is much safer than your old paper-oriented lock.
- OK - but who can read me?
- Me and my friends......
- Your friends?
- Yes, my friends on Facebook and ..... everyone on TypePad .
- I don't believe it!
- However, I have another password.
- What's that?
- Don't be stupid!!! I won't tell you! This password gives access to me only...and you , of course!
- And ...where's my key ? My little , golden key?
- Give me a break!!!
