2. Fix it.

The next time you have trouble you might want to try Fix it.


You click on the Icon you are having trouble with and it ask you;

The best solutions have a Run Now in Green.

  Joe,

Q. I am looking for a file that I believe you gave us. . .it is a video of a young woman and young man doing the boogie woogie to piano music played by a man.  I thought I had put it on my hard drive, but cannot find it. 

If you know the one I am referring to and can send it to me, I surely would be grateful.

A. "Dancin' The Boogie" - by Silvan Zingg Boogie Woogie Piano

Will & Maéva Dancers   


My favorite, I play it a lot. They are the best I’ve seen.

Response:  That’s it!!  Thanks so much.  I agree with your assessment of them, and it is my favorite, too.
