[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good morning to everyone at the canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your conutined service to our country.

Folks, I'm a little short on time this morning as I have a dentist appointment. SandRat has bumped some excellent itmes to his ping list. I f you want to see those click on his screename and then "In Forum" to see what all he's bumped.

Today is Canteen Computer Resource Day. Here's a few things E.G.C. has learned in the 5 and a half years of using the computer.

It's always a good idea to download critical updates for your computer. Sometimes hackers with nothing to occupy their time do some bad things to people's computers like break in and styeal people's information. These critical updates provide patches for things like that so hackers can't break into your computer.

Also, always update your anti-virus software. Worms and viruses sometimes slow down your computer's performance. This is always busybodys with nothing better to do can get into your computer. We use Norton Anti-Virus for our computer protection.

Finally one of the more important things is to unplug your computer when there's thunder and lightning or when storms are forecast for your area.

A couple of years ago, KTEN Television from Ada Oklahoma did a report about a lady who went to bed with her computer plugged in. Stosm occured overnight and lightning struck her phone line.When she woke up the next morning, she found that the modem on her computer burnt out from the lightning strike and she had to have it replaced. It's always a good idea when storms are forecast to unplug your computer and your phone line before going to bed.

And that's just some of what I've learned since being on the computer starting in 2000.

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE

 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.
