REAL TIME UPDATE-   http://wp.me/a4V5qQ-7S  This link should be good- radio show 623. Story below- enjoy.
 It’s funny- I’m obviously new at doing ‘links’- learning how to make videos- calling the phones by the wrong names- I mean anyone can see I’m a 52 year old- trying to do stuff that kids can do with ease.

So- after I posted the last post- I checked the links- to make sure I’m not wasting my time- doing it wrong.

Just this morning I was thinking about the old host site I used for radio- My daughter found it- you know- some free site that hosts voice.

It’s was called KIWWI- or something like that.

So- after spending hours typing in code and all [I don’t have to do that anymore- the WordPress site has an easier process].

One day I clicked the link- you know- just to make sure the thing was working.

Sure enough- for some reason all the radio files were gone!

So- I tried to find out the problem- took it to the computer shop [I know they don’t do stuff like this- but when you ask- sometimes the smart kids think ‘geez- this poor guy- lets help him’].

So- after trying to figure out what went wrong- I went to the KIWWI site- and it said- ON THE SITE- ‘If you have complaints- SCREW YOU!’- Well- I’m exaggerating a bit- but that was the jist of it.

I thought ‘hell- this site is run by some college kids- I guess they do what they want’.

So- I googled ‘what’s the best site- to upload voice- that won’t screw you’ [Ok- I’m ad libbing a bit here].

And found WordPress.

Anyway- when I just checked the radio link from the earlier post- it took me right to my admin acct. - for the site.

I had to log in to hear the show [WordPress does try and get you to upgrade and all- I will later- but for now I’m still learning stuff- but I thought ‘maybe because I didn’t upgrade- this is payback!’]

I thought ‘this is not good- no one can the thing unless they log in!’

I thought maybe it’s just my laptop saving all the passwords and stuff- so I logged out- re-booted- the whole 9 yards.

Nope- the link still took me to the log in thing.

Ok- Now I’m thinking the KIWWI crew is running WordPress [I am an over reactor].

So- I  jump in the car- drive to Best Buy and figured I’ll log on there- and see.

Of course I’m on some 5 thousand dollar computer they have for show- can’t find how to even google anything- the guy shows me.

I check the links- the video link is good [started downloading] and I’m telling the guy ‘Well- I’m trying to download- check the links- it’s a Christian site’ [I’m sure people try to download porn and all- I’m reassuring the guy].

So- the radio link is not working- then I realized I copied the link from my admin site- my bad.

So- My video finally downloaded- plus the guy raised the volume for me on the radio show [I think he wanted to hear exactly what I was downloading].

Now- I figured it out- but I can’t shut the video- or the radio show off- I mean it’s on a big screen thing- the guy sees me- in a rush and all- plus I’m on the screen on the video- and my radio show is blasting-

I mean it was funny- so- I think I got the link right- remember- all these videos/radio shows are on the WordPress site- if I get it wrong- again- just find them there.

I’m back at the coffee shop- no more coffee- I got the tea that’s supposed to to relax you- let’s hope it works.
