Just as pleasant as the Sonoran desert flowers that unexpectedly pop up in the Spring, comes a new blog from our Paradise Valley Community College– the Student Life Blog is not about personal “diaries”, but provides regularly updated program information from the college’s Student Life Center, including upcoming events at the PVCC Coffeehouse, photos, leadership […]
Waiting for the overdue return of my dead iBook and dealing with un-acceptable ways to get an update is truly testing my n ager management. It has been 18 days since it was left in their care, which is what 5-7 business days translates as. In summary of what AppleCare does not provide is: (1) […]
