LOL! I hear ya! I can actually remember life pre-microwave and that was no big deal...but I can't imagine my life pre-internet! I just don't know HOW I ever got anything learned/answered/solved... books are so last century! lol! Thank the Lord for Cwhip and places like this to help noobs like me out!
Honestly, all the reading and such I did never helped me as much as the folks here have!
