I just found the wonderful Lee Morse on youtube. She has a uniquely soulful voice and is very pretty. There are 2 shorts from 1930. "A Million Mes" - among the songs is "What Wouldn't I Do for That Man". "Song Service" - she sings "Just Another Dream Gone Wrong" among others. I can only tell about it - I can't put all those letters down so you can enter the site.  Like Annette Hanshaw I have a lot of her songs on tape and always loved her voice but had never seen her or known anything of her life. |

Diane, there is an easy way to do that, so you can post it here. When you go to YouTube and find the video you wish to post here, simply highlight the code of the video (all those weird letters and numbers combination which follow the "v="). Once highlighted (and with your mouse pointer in the blue highlighted area), right-click and then select "Copy". Then, simply right-click and select "Paste" to place that same code into the textbox (where you normally type) of the Diner. The last step (making sure the code is highlighted in the Diner textbox) is click the YouTube tag above the Dancing Banana smiley. This will place the YouTube tags around the video code. When you submit your posting, voilé ... you'll see the video you have just posted!  |

Diane I used to be the same way thought I couldn't' post a lot of stuff and couldn't spell or use good English and such.. then one day Larry told me he wasn't going to post things or be my dictionary anymore. If I wanted to do those things then I needed to set down and let him teach me how to do them..
Guess what I was so scared but cause Larry forced me to learn now I can spell better, use more applications on the computer, and even type faster...
Larry made me try and helped to boost my confidence.

I certainly agree tc. I will definately concentrate when Claire comes over next
time ( instead of patting the dog). Until then I will try, try again.
When we first got the computer I couldn't even turn it on - I had to get the man
who came to connect us to write down how you did it. I'm sure he was impressed
with my skills (ha ha). I didn't think I would even use it. My son was on it and asked
me who I wanted to look up - I said Nancy Carroll - and I've never looked back.

Well, Guys, just so you know: most all of my computer skills were self-taught too. When I was in high school, I took a class in data processing but that was nothing like Windows-based computers that we use today. Back then I learned how to program with BASIC and COBOL computer languages. Those are basically obsolete now. When Windows came out, I was very resistant but fortunately, not for too long, as I would have never gotten anywhere!  So I started watching others, then I started seeing how simple it was, then began toying around with it myself. That's the best way to do it, IMHO. As for the original topic of this thread  , I will see if I can get a chance to find the one you may have been referring to, and I will post the video. Larry  |

Yes Diane you must at least try... If you make a mistake just keep trying till you get it right. I was always afraid of making mistakes and erasing something important but now days there are fail safe mods. You are asked twice if you want to delete or change something. All you have to do is just read and read your screen before pushing any buttons. It is hard but I know if you try you will catch on... I have faith in you.
