Thoughts From a Clicker
By Tiny Ruisch
The only real help is self-help. Anything else is just designed to get you to the point where you can help yourself. —– Seth
It happened again! At the last Computer Club Board Meeting, Richard mentioned that all videos are uploaded to the club YouTube channel. Someone asked him to send the link and for me to post it in the monthly club newsletter. Here is the e-mail that he sent.
At out last BOD meeting, Pat asked me to send out information about our YouTube Channel. So here it is: Just go to your monthly newsletter and on page 2: “Support Staff and Sponsors”, rightmost column is a link to our YouTube Channel. Click on it and you are there.
This is not anything new. The link has been in every newsletter starting in April 2023, it was reiterated in Tiny’s October monthly column, and was written in each of our BOD meeting minutes starting in February 2023 and last mention in May 2023. I also had one member email me asking where are the replays for the monthly meeting? In all of these instances, I said: “just read the newsletter.” It’s clear to me why Pat asked BOD members to read the newsletter and the meeting minutes.
This actually happens quite often and not just with the newsletter. I’ve heard club members ask about doing workshops on topics that have been scheduled and no one attended. A few months ago, someone asked an off topic question of the speaker at the monthly meeting. It was on something that had been explained in detail in a newsletter article. All they had to do was help themselves.
I recommend wish that on the first of every month, club members would go to the club’s website and check if there are any interesting workshops they would like to attend. You don’t even have to log in to do so. On the home page, click the Workshop Calendar link. It takes less than a minute. If you see one you’d like to attend, Login and register. If you’ve forgotten how, a call to the office staff will get you help. All you have to do is help yourself.
Sorry for the ranting and raving this month, but I couldn’t resist. I thought it was a good time to tell everyone to help yourself. By the way, here is a link for everyone:
