Welcome to Something for Nothing

I’ve used a number of laptops that have had problems with power. Most of the time I just end up either leaving the laptop plugged in when I’m using it. That sucks, but I didn’t know there was another solution for what I now know is called laptop power jack repair.

Here’s a list of possible symptoms that may represent laptop power jack repair:

Symptoms of a broken power jack:
- The laptop only runs when you keep the power cord in a certain direction.

- The laptop only runs on battery power.
- The laptop will not charge the battery.
- The laptop switches from AC power to battery power intermittently.
- The unit suddenly shuts off
- Sparks come out of the back of the laptop.

I hate the power cord direction one and the laptop not charging the battery. I wonder what the sparks one would look like. Reminds me of the recent Dell laptop that exploded.

I ran across a nice looking website that lets you test your download speed. I’ve of course done this many times in the past, but it is a good thing to check often to see how your bandwidth is doing over time. The only thing missing from this test is a comparison to others who have done the test.

Yesterday I was talking with a friend about her interest in finding a website that listed christian people that offered certain services she needed. I thought it was a great idea and I thought I found a website that did just that called Christian Placement.com(http://www.christianplacements.com) Well, I wasn’t quite right about this website doing what my friend wanted.

However, I was completely fascinated with the idea the Christian ministers or people wanting to work with a christian organization could use ChristianPlacement.com(http://www.christianplacements.com) to find employment. Sounds like a great idea. Here’s a better description of exactly what their mission is:

Another popular Wordpress blog had a picture of a guy with a gun. I don’t think he should really have a gun. Sorry to be so judgmental. I think its the eyes that kill me.
