Wow - That's awesome, Zach!

Good luck, Renaeden! Let us know how it goes.

Goddess - if I had some time I would detail out the steps with screenshots, but I find it hard to do from my mobile devices anyway - I'm not sure how difficult it would be for you. Basically you go to the picture from facebook, copy the URL, come here and open a new post, click on the Img button under the subject line and paste the URL between the HTML tags.

It would be easier to do from my droid considering the copy and past functionality, but you might be able to do it with your ipod/iphone.

I tend to use a physical computer if I'm going to go through the process.

Good luck Renaeden!!!

Ok so the holiday season has arrived. If I see one more "Jesus is Tge reason for the season" sign, someone's going to pay. Why? Well bc first of all it's all wrong. Nevermind the solstice celebrations, the Catholic Church, which took 100 years to decide the change in no meat on any Friday to no meat Fridays during Lent, made a rather snap judgment to put Christmas 3 days after Yule just to bring more folks on board the crazy train. Nevermind all plausible evidence suggests a spring birth...

Ahh yes, my annual rant on the stupidity of...everything!

*Disclaimer - rant not intended to offend anyone who happens to be Catholic. I was indoctrinated, err, raised as a CathOlic and stuck it out for 30 years.

Thanks all. :cool:
Have sat two exams, the Sensory Abilities and Disabilities definitely the hardest one. 40 multiple choice questions, 10 short answers and 2 essay questions. Three and a half hours long. I have another one for Qualitative Methods on Friday, that will be two hours long.

Got 78% for my Conversation Analysis report which I am pretty happy about.

Making two pies and two cobblers today. The workload was reduced because I found out less people are coming. So it should be a relatively simple, quiet day.

I'm making my very first sweet potato pie. Yum.

And an Apple pie with Gala Apples instead of Golden Delicious. We'll have to see how it turns out.

I finally took the garden down cleared everything out...I was hoping to plant radishes, beets and a few other cold tolerant plants but we had a freak snow storm here in PA. I guess it is time to start collecting coffee grinds from the cyber-cafes and other organic matter for composting over the winter.

That sounds great Richie! I hope this means you're feeling better??

I broke my own rule and went out on Black Friday! In my defense I had to go to the bank and saw Walgreens parking lot was nearly empty so I went in ;)

Ended up getting 2 Crest toothpaste, 3 Colgate Toothpaste, 2 Secret body spray (the closest I can come to wearing perfume), 2 cans Hydro shave cream, 3 Covergirl lipsticks (all I wear), 2 packs of 18 Scunci ponytail holders. I had coupons for everything so my out of pocket was $19.75 and I got $30 in Register Rewards, which are basically money I can use next time I shop there. One of my best trips ever ;)

Um those pics totally don't fit. You may have to resize them.

I have optometrist and Irlen appointments tomorrow and Wednesday. Expensive.

Zach, I like you but I'm sure there's a nicer way you could've put that. I do take some modicum of pride in this forum.
