Dumb is my middle name

Well, just now and then...

So I went back to work today.
And I decided to test my new equipment and do a power point presentation.
I arrived 15 minutes early, so I could set up the projector/laptop/wires, etc.

Students started arriving, all excited and curious about what was all that about!

Everything was in perfect working condition! power point was showing on the laptop, but on the wall there was only light!

No image, just light!

So, I reset, restart, walk around, start going ahhhgggg, students say it's okay Maria, don't worry, never mind...

NO!! IT WILL WORK!! YOU are my guinea pigs today, just hold in there. Thank you for your pacience, sorry about the delay, BUT THIS WILL WORK!!

Soooo, anyway after HALF an HOUR, I stand in front of the projector, staring at the light and decided to pull a little cord...and...MIRACLE!! There was a cover/top/lid/whatever covering the lens!

OOpppsssss :oops:

In my defence it is transparent, alright?

:wave:

"What's my Skype name?"
"It's hmm hmm hmm hmm, isn't it?"
"That's not working, can you check in front of you?"
"My computer's off already."
"But I can't log in!"
"Ok, hang on... it's mm hmm hmm hmm, like I thought."
"Hmmm. Oh, maybe the password is wrong..."

Oh Miza can I relate to this I laughed because I have been there and done that, and can imagine all the thoughts that must have been going through your head...including a few interesting wordsxxx

  Oh yes, all those words were going through my mind
  I just couldn't say them out loud, it is a classroom after all
