Ye[. I can access all the chapters, Karen.

The eagle picture is hosted on my web site. If anyone else has pictures they wish to display, send them to me in an email and I'll upload it and give a URL back to it.

I might also suggest a new thread for each chapter. That would limit commentary to that chapter alone. Then, create a different thread for overall storyline discussion and 'other stuff'.

I agree one hundred percent. Our barracks in Japan was tended to by a number of very nice women who did the laundry, cooked food, and did general cleaning. I was what was called "Charge of Quarters". This meant I kept swearing down to a minimum. One girl came up to me and asked what the American phrase 'mozzarella" meant. I told her it was a cheese for pizza topping. She looked confused and wandered off. Later, I asked one of my guys if he knew why she'd asked me that. He told me that sometimes the guys really wanted to swear (delayed football games comes to mind here) and they'd "invented" a swear word out of mozzarella. So, if they really wanted to swear they switch to pizza cheese, but say it with feeling and punch the air with their fist. Thus, even cheese can be emotive.

Minor annoyance here.

I was reviewing some of my pending connection requests. When I click on the link to show me the message I sent, the page jumps to the top and I have to scroll back down to read the message. Clicking on another message produces the same results. Kind of annoying to have to do all that scrolling.

I don't know what's up, Jack. I did it again using my Facebook account.

This is the picture: http://intellisigsys.net/pics/eagle2.jpg

I use another stylized eagle, It appears to be walking from right to left and looking down at its feet.

Looks like a cool idea. I'll see what I can do. At least 1000 words, but not overly long, I imagine?

Thanks for all the answers, Sol.

The editing problem has occurred using not only my normal browser (Pale Moon, a derivative of Firefox) but the latest incarnation of Firefox. Not all the time, but enough to me annoying, I still get gaps and stuck keys. By 'gaps' I mean I hit a key, but nothing gets entered no matter how hard I hit the key. As for repeats, I can barely tough the key and I get several repeats. This problem appears to happen after I highlight a phrase and then use the mouse to drag the highlight to a new spot and then release the mouse. Following that action, I get the kayboard failures.

I am not signed up for the class, but I've received two emails for it - both gave me 'Not Authorized'. These could have been random glitches as I imagine there have been quite a few more than just two notifications sent out.

The mass-delete failures occur in the above mentioned browsers all the time, not just occasionally. I've done some testing and found that I can check 6 boxes and all 6 will be deleted at the same time. If I check 7 boxes or more, including the 'delete everything on the page' box at the top, then none get deleted.

Being on a very fixed income (which hasn't been updated for Cost of Living since 2004) I agree with you Janet, but I'm going to find it somewhere because I've learned so much just in the relatively short time I've been here. It'll be a stretch, but I think i can do it. maybe I'll find someone who wants a new or revised web page - dat'll do it.

A nice touch would be the ability to go to Billing and see when your current billing period ends.

I thought it was just me that thought even the great authors were slacking off. Some of the authors I read (W.E.B. Griffin, Stuart Woods, David Weber, and several others, have put out books, but the page-count is slowly going down. The fonts are slightly larger, and the margins are wider. This tells me either the author is getting tired (or old), or the publisher is trying to make a bigger dime. One author stands out, though, as not producing smaller books and that is Tom Clancy (and, now that he's passed away, Mark Greaney).

Maybe after producing a great amount of books, an author is deserving of a rest. I know that if I'd written 43 books, I'd be tired too.

The monkey puzzle tree, what a coincidence! I've seen The Enchanted Cottage too, and it is a real tearjerker.
