Our local library often offers classes in all sorts of things from computer skills to how to play the stock market. Recently Melissa pointed a class out to me, and I just didn't know what to think. Should I be amused? Sad? Bewildered? All of the above? Here it is, and I hope it's as perplexing to you as it is to me.
The best thing about this class: That it lasts for an hour and a half. 90 minutes of trying to figure out how to click vs. double-click and when to do each.

But I used to teach computer classes to adults and MANY of them would have needed this class.
So sad.
Seriously funny! And sad that I have known a LOT of people who could benefit from this class. Many of them are in charge of multi-million dollar companies. :(
This is me to a former co-worker: Right-click! Right click! No, the other button. Grrr. MOVE!
I love that your local tax dollars are (probably) subsidizing a very meaningful and purposeful class offering!
Maybe a class offering in how to read the comment captcha words would benefit me. :-\
"...sometimes the trickiest..."
See, I've always found that pesky power button to be the trickiest... Do I push and hold? Do I just lightly tap it? Do I double push it? Do I use a specific finger? It is all so confusing!
