New items are on the Auction list for BGAMUG! And one item is no longer offered...

Here is the newest update of the official BGAMUG Auction information.

In case you didn't know about it yet, this Auction meeting is coming up on Tuesday, September 25th.

The public is invited!

Here are the latest items. Note that the Visio Tablet is no longer there, but there have been a couple of other items added, such as an Exercise Trampoline and a Maxtor External Hard Drive.

Members bringing items to be donated and auctioned for the club are asked to bring these items before the meeting, between 5 and 6:15.

The meeting itself starts at 6:30.

I hopefully will be attending. It sounds fun!

There is a map on the website showing how to get to the meeting.

 I hope to see you there if you are in the area!

We have many back issues there too.

What's neat about these BGAMUG BGA-Bytes Newsletter issues is that they have lots of good computer information and advice there from all over, plus news, stories, and articles from BGAMUG Club members, located in and near Bowling Green, Kentucky.

You will find out more about the upcoming Auction meeting there too.

In case you didn't know about it yet, here is the official up-to-date flyer about the Auction meeting coming up on Tuesday, September 25th that is featured on the website.

Here is updated information on our next meeting!

Our next meeting is September 25th at 6:30. People have been busy donating fun things for it too.

Join us for this fun BGAMUG Computer Club meeting. There will be some great things to buy there.

I went to one of these before, and it was very enjoyable. There were lots of laughs too, which I always love.

YOU are invited. You do not have to be a member of the BGAMUG Computer Club to attend.

Here is the latest poster for the event:

See you there! I will be setting up tables and hopefully also bidding on neat items. I am the one bringing the collectible Trivia Game. It's hard to find... and fun!

Our next meeting is Tuesday, September 25th - and it will be a fun one!

Be prepared to bid on some neat items at our next BGAMUG meeting, which is on Tuesday, September 25th.

This auction looks fun! It is from the Wikimedia Commons pages.

Jerry Gillette has kindly consented to be the Auctioneer for a fun Auction meeting full of computer related items and other useful things. Jerry is so funny when he does events, it will be worth watching just to watch him work. But it will also be fun to buy things too, and support the club.

Members, bring your items to donate to the BGAMUG Computer Club and watch the fun. These can be computer-related or not, but need to be items people will really like and bid on.

And bring money so you can bid on the items too! Any items not sold at the auction go back to their donators to bring home.

I am looking forward a lot to this meeting!

I love auctions and buying things for good prices. Remember, everything you buy helps the BGAMUG Computer club help people learn about computers, and also helps them with donations to help the community and others.

See you there!

This auction hammer is also from the Wikimedia pages.

Some Delaware Library Interns like our links! We have listed one of theirs on our site too.

News from a Classroom in Delaware: 

We had a very interesting email from Ms. Ward at a Delaware school lately.

Madi, a Library Intern, found a great typing link for us.

The interns are using some links on our BGAMUG Computer Club Links Page too, on a school website page this year.

So it's a big win-win situation for us!

Thank you, Ms. Ward, and Madi, for another link to add to our Links Page.

It is "Staffing Solutions: Learning to Type More Efficiently" at http://www.certstaff.com/classes/learn-to-type-efficiently.html.

Thank you for trading links with us.

Do you eat or drink in front of your computer?

I was just wondering. I sometimes do have a snack by my computer. I have to be careful though.

And sometimes I like to have a drink there too.

I no longer put the drink within elbow reach or an accidental spill, though now I have a nice plastic keyboard protector on my keyboard, just in case.

Here is the picture that helped me decide the topic for this posting. I can imagine something spilling from this plate!

The description for this photo reads: Grilled halibut with green chili sauce on computer table. Mmmmmm good. But that coke looks so dangerous. 

Have you ever spilled on your computer table or (horrors!) on the keyboard? Leave a comment if you have and are brave enough to talk about it.
