Christina,

Indeed it is a pleasure to have you about. Bernie is a great joy and source of much info around here, and has contributed immeasurably to our success. That all said, we keep no secrets. So, for a good time, ask Bernie what "BIOB" means. No doubt you will find this tidbit of info enhances your lot as well as provides answers to the great mysteries of life. Truly, much will fall in to place when this secret is revealed.

And of course, if there is some bit of info about the Bernmeiser you would like to share with us...

Just checking in. Thanks everyone. Keep them coming.  She's read all so far and said . " Wow! These peoplel are fantastic" How'd you  meet them? I simply stated , "TS members are Mac and PC users that enjoy helping others" She said" What they use PC  too?" Yes I said. It's a PC worlld but Most Mac users are unique and enjoy helping others. Anyway,  Christina and her husband Jimmy live in Castro Valley Ca.  Just nearby are mothership headquarters where her older brother and other Apple employees help create the MacOs for over 17 yrs now. Yes! Now you know why I'm spoiled. LOL smile.gif

Hi Christina.   Have a wonderful time on your visit.  Bernie is a  great favorite here at TS.  What would we do without Bernie?  And not just because we BIOB.

Castro Valley!!

Well, then "Hello. all the way from Millbrae," Christina. You survived the New Years gale(s), so enjoy SoCalif. "They" say we're going to have clear weather up here, until midweek.

Bernie's a key player in TechSurvivors . . . from its very beginning. A VIP, for certain . . . just ask him clap.gif  thumbup.gif  harhar.gif

PS: And be sure to check out his unbirthday thread!

HI CHRISTINA !!!

...from another Kris.   wink.gif


Uncle Bernie is a valuable member of our eclectic group.  His generous spirit, not just with the TS forum, but in helping many others should make you really proud to call him Dad.

Hmm, maybe I should call him "cousin Bernie" since he's younger than I... rolleyes.gif

Wait a minute...do I  understand correctly from some of the above text that Bernie has a son who works for Apple? Or am I reading that wrong?    wacko.gif

Howdy Christina!

North Central Florida chapter of TS.  Would you believe that it's so warm that I had to turn on the fan and throw off the blankets this morning?

Hope you'll stick around.  We LIKE family. And we're like family.

Hi Sanbox. Nice Doggie smile.gif  As for Krissels ? Ann's son worked for Apple If I'm correct 16 years. He's no longer with Apple. I creates software for investment firms now.  Bummer. I used to love the Apple Internal edition CD's (Os) "Employee CD's" I'd better be quiet now.  Devilish2.gif

welcome.gif Christina! Hope you're having fun with Mom, and just remember, when things go wrong, just point your finger at Bernie!  By the way, if you guys want to send a few "degrees" this way, it'd be appreciated!

From Salmon Beach, where the toilet was frozen this morning! And they're promising a whole lot of snow tonight. . . verysad.gif

welcome.gif Bienvenue CHRISTINA,

I don't remember how I found this site but I always "BIOB".

My 5 year old iMac just hums along because I have received some great advice and help here.  I live in the "warm" part of Canada.  It rained here last week.  But it's going get real cold this week.  The cold snap out west is headed this way,  thanx.gif  Dreambird!  

But the best thing here are the members, I have never seen anyone "flamed" and no question is considered stupid.  Enjoy your visit and these posts.

Bonne journée

Johan

Hello Christina. You've discovered that this is a special place. As usual, we can blame that on Bernie (BIOB for short).
