The remnants of hurricane Katrina blowing by in the background.

TPBM is also ominous

Zane, I love this shot. The light is wonderful.

Out for the day, folk, catch you all later!

Well it would be a hydra missing a few heads though.

Ooh, Zane... pretty. Love how the light and dark really make the clouds look very threatening.

G'morning

Sort of like Kona trying to eat Lisa's dog owner plaque

LOL that's exactly what I thought of.

It did make me think of Kona.. Lisa: Take heart, once Kona is out of his puppy stage, he'll be a fine upstanding citizen.

thanks Mike. Here's hoping it's true!

Just to clarify, Johnny Depp does not one thing for me.

Happy Friday, Becky. Hope your file transfers go smoothly. I have put all of my files in a pile and am traveling to my other office. As Scarlet said, 'I shall think about it tomorrow'

Thank you, it did, I now have a chair full of stuff to take to the shreadder later this afternoon. *wringing hands with evil grin at the thought of being destructive*

I forgot...HAPPY MAGGIE DAY!!

ooooh, today is the big day...

I'm am mostly having problems in this forum and some other places like youtube. If I refresh in here it can take 4 or 5 minutes for it to finish loading a page. Youtube is almost unusable. It takes for ever to load a video. I know it's not my connection because I usually have about 4-5mbps speed. I can start a video in FF and it will barely load. Then open IE and start the same video and it will finish loading with a few seconds.

I haven't seen anything like that happen. I use Firefox on probably two dozen computers at least, and have never had a problem except the recent troubles I mentioned on my aging desktop at home. Since that computer is more than five years old now I'm sure it's just a dying computer at fault, not Firefox. It's about time I retire that computer anyway. Even the old CRT monitor on it (which I love) is definitely on it's last legs.

I have heard some horror stories about how intrusive Chrome is. It sounds like it is worse than any spyware you can get infected with. That is the entire business model for Google. Offer a decent search engine and track your every move. Then sell that tracking to advertisers.

We always have a bunch of computers at work I can use as guinea pigs. I put Chrome on one when it first came out. I was severely unimpressed. It was the most basic, feature-lacking browser I'd ever seen (unless you count Lynx).

I also tested the Windows version of Safari once. Again, I wasn't all that impressed, though honestly it wasn't bad. Just not good enough to get me to switch from Firefox.

Another one I like, and keep around on all of my computers (and in a portable form on a flash drive) is Opera. If there were no such thing as Firefox, I'd probably be using Opera.

I also have about a half dozen other browsers installed on various computers and that flash drive. I kinda collect the things.

Firefox has almost completely supplanted Internet Explorer for me. I used Opera once and quickly deleted it.
