Has your business sort of tumbled into the ditch over the summer? There are so many things going on in our personal lives over the summer, and if you have children who need entertainment and direction, it’s harder than most of the rest of us can imagine. But the summer is winding down and the [...]

Hello. Remember me? Thank you for your patience as I’ve taken off the last two and a half months to focus on moving to my new home, and to wrap up my Dad’s estate. It has all taken longer than I had expected, but the heavy-duty work stage is now behind me, and I’m returning [...]

It pays to have our answers ready, doesn’t it? We never know when someone is going to ask, “What’s your line of business anyway?” or “What do you do to make a living?” Do you shrug your shoulders and make light of whatever it is that is your passion and main occupation? Oh no! You’ve [...]

I see that exactly one month ago I wrote the last issue of eAction, and I was apologizing there. Now I’m doing it again, but perhaps for more valid reasons. My Dad got cancer and died, fortunately before too much suffering, on February 24. If you have experienced a death in the family you know [...]

Blushing today I must confess an error. I am sorry. I’ve been alternating this eAction blog week by week with the Linux Learning Curve blog. Early this morning I took my Dad to the city for a CT-scan. In my mind I knew when I got back I’d have to catch up here, but somehow [...]

Sometimes out of the blue, we do get some information that seems important enough to pass on. The piece in the Feature section today came from Fred Miller, the man who persuaded me to change my computer over completely to SUSE, a linux operating system. He keeps very well informed on the news aspect of [...]
