Once again: The operating System for Blogger is no longer like a Cadillac or Rolls royce but like a 1966 VW Bug

I used to own a 1966 VW Bug with white interior and Seablue exterior starting in 1969 when my parents took over payments of my 1968 Camaro that I bought while working as a computer programmer so I could go back to college and become this time a psychologist (which didn't happen in the end) simply because I met my first wife and she got pregnant  and raising my son and taking care of my new wife seemed more important than becoming a psychologist at that point in my life when I was 26 years old.

But, I have grown used to the Cadillac operating system of blogger.com or Rolls royce operating system which appears to be gone now. So, all the nice word buttons that Chrome or blogger.com generated for me don't generate anymore.

The problem with this is this severely limits the information I can easily share with you. So, not only is this my loss it is also your loss as well which only makes it more suspicious during this election cycle!

A 1966 VW Bug was wonderful in 1969. It got over 30 miles per gallon. I could drive it through snow and never get stuck in mud or snow because I could just get out and walk to the front of the car and pick up the bumper and lift the car up off the front wheels and turn the car to any direction that got me unstuck from snow or mud always. Engine in the rear was great like a four wheel drive or all whee drive now.

However, it didn't have luxuries and I had to crawl under it every 3000 miles and adjust the valves for it to keep running smoothly. But, there are few cars I loved more than my 1966 VW Bug then. I drove it 30,000 miles a year for at least 5 years time which was great. From San Diego to WAshington state to Denver and Utah to spinning it on the ice and snow at Alta Utah. Those were the days while I was still single!

But, they are gone now and I prefer my 4 wheel drive Tundra and my wife's all wheel drive car now instead for driving through snow and sometimes mud and rocks.
