Ok enough politics for me until I rant about media, Trump or GOP!

Funny story. My wife's Chrome was acting very slowly. She only uses it for certain very specific tasks which don't have special plug-ins/extensions. I did not bother to find that out but suggested she delete the software and re-download. For me, I would worry about bookmarks except being an iPad guy most to my bookmarks are in Safari which I manage from there. Chrome somehow has the same bookmarks. I remember syncing them at one point but generally don't bother about worrying about such stuff until something goes wrong. Anyway being like most husbands and wives she wanted it done now. I was "too busy" doing something of no importance. So my eight year old son helped her. Needlessto say, today, two weeks later, my wife Bellowed out, "Why is my crown so slow?"

I decided it was time I must take control. I went over to her computer with my iPad loaded to a page on how to speed up Chrome. I immediately noticed how terribly slow things were. I immediately loaded a utility which shows load on the system. I then used that to shut down Chrome, Safari, and 1 to 2 other programs. I then had my first real shock. I go search for Chrome to re-start it. I cannot find it in the dock. I cannot find it in spotlight. I cannot find it in the applications folder. All I can figureis that my son loaded it into memory from the download while not dragging the download onto the computer. Presto! Problem solved. At least my skills are still better than my nine year old son, although my 10-year-old daughter claims she is already better! Heaven help me!

I am the king!!
