My daughter, Elizabeth Ann, began her first novel at age 15…but she has not finished it yet.  Perhaps seeing this will inspire her to begin her writing again.  If you want to see the rest of her first novel…you’ll have to encourage her to complete it.

Cassandra Lynne Montgomery

By Elizabeth Ann Wilson

January 25, 1995

-Chapter One-

Cassandra Lynne Montgomery was born July 20, 1872, in the prominent city of Paris France. She was born into an extremely wealthy, well-known family, looked upon by all of their friends as the perfect family. Little did they know.

She grew up attending the finest schools in the country, associating with only the world's finest teachers and professors. She was also known for her fine silk and velvet dresses: they were the best money could possibly buy. She was a very spoiled child, and always received exactly what she wanted; that, and her extreme beauty, would account for her being self-centered. There was a different young man asking to court her every day. No one ever dreamed all the "happiness, love, and warmth" would die...the story begins here...

"...But mother, this is the one I want. It brings out the green in my eyes...and don't you love the way my hair looks against silk? Oh I do look so very beautiful!"

"Cassandra dear, don't you think it's a little revealing? Your father would hang us both if he saw you in that...that, dress! Please Cas, how is this one? Yes, you would look absolutely beautiful in this one, and keep your life at the same time...not to mention I'd keep my husband."

"NO!"

"Excuse me?"

"No, mother; this is the one I want, this is the one I'm going to get! "

"But dear it's..."

"Mother, I want this dress I have on: it's my party! Arthur, We'll take this one!"…….

My wife sent me something today that had the following in it.  I wanted to share it with my MSN Live Readers, Linked In Contacts and Face Book friends.  Using this method will put out there on all three (3) sites at once so that I don’t leave anyone out.  I hope you enjoy it.

Here is a new version just for us who have white hair or no hair at all. For us over middle age (or even those almost there) and all you others, check out this newest version of Jesus Loves Me.

I love Jesus, does He know?
Have I ever told Him so?
Jesus loves to hear me say,
That I love Him every day.

I was teaching Kristy how to blog off line for later publication so that she can blog while traveling even if she doesn’t have Internet access.

This article is just an example.

We just made a special purchase of BitDefender and would like offer the following to our friends, clients and subscribers:

BitDefender Anti-virus 2009 Family Edition for up to 3 PC’s.  This includes a subscription for updates for 2-years.  We are offering this to the first 3 persons who place their order over the phone and pay for it with a credit or debit card for only $39.99!  That’s right, this covers 3 pc’s for 2 years for only $39.99 plus sales tax.  (If we have to ship it to you, an extra charge will apply for shipping.)

I know this is the weekend and we don’t normally answer the phone on the weekend, but if you call and leave a message, we will return your call some time this weekend.  Do NOT leave your card information on the voice mail.  We’ll call you and get that at the time of the call.

1. Open a new file in your computer.

2. Name it 'Barack Obama'.

3. Send it to the Recycle Bin.

4. Empty the Recycle Bin.

5. Your PC will ask you: 'Do you really want to get rid of 'Barack Obama?'

6. Firmly Click 'Yes.'

7. Feel better?

Good - Tomorrow we'll do Nancy Pelosi!

I know this has nothing to do with computers in the true sense, but when I read it and had to share it!  I don’t know who originally came up with it but it is funny…unless you like what Pres. Obama stands for.

Ask this question of 10 users and you’ll likely get ten different answers.  So, how are you supposed to know which is the best?  Well read on….

For several years we were recommending a totally free and legal system called ClamWin.  Why?

1. It worked and worked well, for users who knew what they were doing.
2. It didn’t use a lot of my computer’s power to run, whereas many of the well known commercial products really slowed a computer down.
3. It was priced right….FREE!

Times have changed though.  ClamWin was simply an Anti-virus/Anti-spyware program.  It did not do anything to protect users from malicious websites or scan files in “real-time.” 

Before we started using ClamWin, we had recommended Norton’s Anti-virus or Internet Security for many years until their 2006 version.  It was a DOG.  The horrible mess of the 2006 program caused me to not only quit recommending it, I uninstalled it from all of our systems.

The good news is, Norton Internet Security 2009 and Norton Anti-virus 2009 are seriously improved!  We have started recommending and installing it on many systems.  However, we are also aware there are other systems out there and since we are a small company we do not have the resources to install and test all of them.  What can we do?  We can point you to a site that has done this for you.

If you want to read all the scoop on this yourself you are welcome to by going to http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/index.html or if you want, you can just know that BitDefender is rated the best by the company that puts this site up.  http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/bitdefender-review.html

So what are we going to do?  Well, I’ve made a decision to order BitDefender for our own company.  I’ll let you know what I think of it in just a few days.
