New blog address

Time for another change. After Trish spent many hours helping me get my blog started, Mark informed me that he was unable to receive my blog in China. It could be that he lives in rural China, or it could be that the China government internet monitors have shut down many message boards and blocked Twitter and Flickr. They wanted to silence social networking around the time of the 20th anniversary of the bloody Tienanmen Square last week. They were rounding up dissidents and shipping them out of town (one adventure I do not want to participate in). So in order to avoid potential problems, my son Matt decided I would do better on a different site. Remember that I can do my little computer programs but if I run into problems I am helpless without my kids around. So on Saturday night I watched Matt set up my new site which was quite fun to see him navigate so quickly from screen to screen. I am sending my new address www.littlejoanie.com and hope that you will follow me on my new journey to China. Just when I thought I knew all there was to blogging now I have to stretch my brain to learn more. Mark was able to bring up this site so I think I should be good to go.
