Here’s a Quarter …

Posted on by

Imagine a world without the internet — without cell phones — without microwaves and VCR’s ?  I can imagine it easily because when I was a child none of those things were common household items.  But today’s generation has no idea what a life without the convience of all this technology is like.

Remember the days when you had to walk to a pay phone if your car broke down ? My daughter has no idea what a payphone is.  We were listening to the radio and heard the song “Here’s a Quarter –Call someone who cares.”  and I had to explain to he what the quarter was for – she had never heard of needing a quarter to make a phone call.  Now I bet you are thinking  to yourself  “When was the last time I saw a pay phone ? ”

Technology is changing with increasing speed, so what was current six months ago is no outdated.  How can you keep up with the technology you need, and manage all other things you have on your plate ?  You call an expert, like Spencer Technology Solutions.

New Year – Try Technology Solutions that Work !

How does it feel to be in the second decade of a new millenium ? It’s quite amazing when you think about it.  I remember when I was a little girl and I used to imagine what it would be like to be an adult living in the year 2000.  With the help of the images from movies and magazines, I imagined a world with floating cities and cars — something out of the Jetsons.   While the new millenium is not quite what they planned in the cartoons and movies of the 1970’s and 80’s, our world is definetly more advanced and on the cutting edge of technology.   I am constantly amazed at what a cell phone can do !

The Night Matt Saved Christmas !

Posted on by

So there I was sitting back in my recliner reading my email, and eating one of my wife’s delicious oatmeal and raisin cookies.  As I was sipping my egg nog,  my cell phone started to ring, and I checked the phone to see who was calling so late on the Friday afternoon before Christmas.   It was the North Pole, and the number was Santa’s private line !  I quickly answered the call to find out that Santa was in desperate need of my help.  His new software for tracking the present distribution had gone haywire, and his best elves had tried to fix it and failed.  I hopped into my four wheel drive sleigh — I mean car — and headed to the North Pole.  Away I flew like a flash, (those of you know how I drive, know this is true), and arrived at Santa’s door before you could say “Snow”.

Into Santa’s office I went right away, and fixed his laptop, programs, and all.  Soon Santa’s whole production was running again like a dream.  The presents were all in order, the boys and girls’ toys, dolls, and trains were ready to go, and Santa sighed with relief as he walked me out the door.   He patted me on the back and said ” Matt, you’ve been a very good boy this year, ol’ Santa is  thankful for your help.”   I heard him exclaim as I drove out of sight, “Merry Christmas to all, and don’t forget to give good ol’ Matt a call.”

When your elves can’t handle the problem give Spencer Technology Solutions a call at 540-815-9397.
