Defragment Your Drawers
Posted by: | Comments
If I had a chest-of-drawers, I would have my socks and underwear in the top drawer. The next would have my tee shirts. The third drawer would have my shorts and the rest of my tee shirts. The fifth drawer would have my tie, suspenders, an old bottle of Old Spice, some shoe strings and my shoe polish. The bottom drawer would have my red Santa hat, pink leotards and the foot fungus spray.
If my chest is neat and organized, things are easy to find. All I need to do is remember which drawer has what in it.
Over time, the drawers may get cluttered. things may get put in the wrong place. Before long, I might have to look under the Santa Hat to find the shoe strings. I don’t even know who owns the pink leotards, but they end up in the top drawer.
Your computer is just the same. Think of your hard drive as a chest-of-drawers. In it are drawers (folders) with socks (files), underwear (graphics), tee shirts (documents) and pink leotards ( programs you don’t even know what they do). After a while, things get cluttered, free space gets used by stray files and pink leotards think they can take the rest of the free space.
Without you being aware, your computer is working harder and harder to find what it needs. All the data is still there but it’s all over the place.
If you are a user of Windows, they have a simple fix for straightening up your hard drive and putting everything in it’s proper place. It is called the Disk Defragmenter.
First, go to the start menu, click on All Programs, then Accessories, then System Tools and click on Disk Defragmenter.
Now you simply click the button "Defragment" and it does all the rest. Depending on the size of your chest-of-drawers… I mean your hard drive, it may take only a few minutes or up to an hour to complete the defragmenting process.

Bubba goes to the revival and listens to the preacher.
After a while the preacher asks anyone with needs to be prayed over To
come forward to the front at the altar.
Bubba gets in line, and when it’s his turn the preacher asks: ‘Bubba,
what do you want me to pray about for you?’
Bubba replies: ‘Preacher, I need you to pray for my hearing.’
The preacher puts one finger in Bubba’s ear, and he places the other
hand on top of Bubba’s head and prays and prays.
After a few minutes, the preacher removes his hands, Stands back and
asks : ‘Bubba, how is your hearing now?’
Bubba says, ”I don’t know, Reverend, it ain’t until next Wednesday’.
Christian Carnival
Posted by: | Comments
If you’re looking to find some new readers for your blog consider getting involved in the next Christian Carnival which is being hosted by a fellow CBO member at RodneyOlsen.net.
The weekly Christian Carnival is an opportunity for Christian blog writers to share their best posts from the previous week. The topic of the post doesn’t necessarily have to focus on Christianity but it must reflect a Christian worldview, and the writer must be Christian to qualify.
If you’re a Christian and you’ve never contributed before, or if it’s been a while since you have, how about having a look through your posts for this week and choosing something to contribute. It doesn’t have to be a masterpiece, just a post that outlines your point of view or is designed to get others thinking. Being part of the carnival could be a great way to gain a little extra traffic at your blog.
The easiest way to get involved is to submit your article through the Blog Carnival Submission Form. Otherwise, you can email the submission address.
The deadline for submissions is Tuesday evening at midnight, Eastern (US) Standard Time. (EST is GMT minus five hours.)
