1. Yes, Poppy should share his laptop with Granny5.
2. No, Granny5 should do without a computer.

I will be headed to Oklahoma for school for a total of 6 weeks starting next week. I believe that since we have two computers in the house, one of them being a laptop that belongs to Poppy, that I should be allowed to take the laptop with me. It'll enable me to stay in touch with my family on a daily basis and I won't have to go through LitNet withdrawals either. Doesn't everyone else think that I should be allowed to take Poppy's laptop with me and he can use my computer while I'm gone?
(I don't know how to post a poll so if anyone can help me out, many thanks.)

yeah!! I did it.

Yes it's only fair that he lets you use it... especially since it is for quite a while that you will be gone, not just one or two days, and if you have 2 computers then it's not like it's all that much of a disadvantage to him...

Why don't you do what my wife does to me, lay down the law that this is how it's going to be. And my response is , "yes ma'am." :D

You've got a great idea; buy me a new laptop.....actually, can't afford it.:lol:
But, as Virgil said, I could just lay down the law and say I get to take it or he has to buy me one. But after over 30 years, he knows how to deal with me laying down the laws. :lol:

Good Lord! I sure can tell who my friends are!!! I feel like Simon Cowell or Piers Morgan. I can hear the Boooooos from you guys.

I'm not booing, but I think you'll let her take the lap top. She should just rub your tummy and ask nice! I bet a banana popsicle that the lap top goes :D

Poppy owes you a banana popcicle, Kiddo. He's letting me take it. :lol: :lol:
(That tummy rubbing and a public poll works every time.)

Thanks everyone.
