Jane, are you understanding?  You don't click on the message board "home" page - that's only the threads about the book.  Just go to where the day's notes are and you'll see it on the left.

This site has papers going back to the 1700s, all in .PDF format and all completely searchable.  
...
Is anyone an Adobe expert out there?  Is there any way to "crop" Adobe files, so that I don't need to print out a whole newspaper page every time?  


I'm no expert, but if the .pdf is searchable, Adobe recogzines the text; therefore using the Text Select tool in the free Acrobat Reader will allow you to select portions of an article and then copy/paste them to a word processor.

(If the documents, however, are scanned into .pdf files as grapahics, i.e. they have not been OCR "recognizeded" your'e SOL.)

I have often used my reader to extract sections of tect from instruction manuals to import them to Word and then do some manipulation.

Now I need to figure out how to change, not add, my credit card info plus my email address.  I might have to do this later as I'm short on patience today.

YOu also can just register anew, since you'll be using a new credit card and e-mail address.  That way, you might even get the five dollar credit.

Okay, it ain't happening. So how do you reduce a file (a Jpeg) - I don't even know how to ask the right question.
I tried to post a photo - advice please.

Jrand53 - I just emailed the jpeg to you. I tried doing it through the site and it didn't send, so I just copied your email address to my personal email and sent it that way. The subject line is "Photo"...
Thanks for doing this! BTW - how do you reduce a jpeg?

Courtesy DR Panni - here is Ms Panni and Mr BK at the WGA Awards on Saturday night!   :o

But we can't see the shiny shoes.  Pay no attention to the bartender on the left.


DR Panni - you forgot your turtleneck sweater under that dress!

My, what a handsome couple just above me.  Understated, yet elegant.

DR BEN: The Hubby and I just re-watched Trouble In Paradise tonight; we enjoyed it immensely.  Thank you, thank you once again for your thoughtfulness!

I don't know if I can really boil down the essence of Lulu into ten songs, but I'll give it a shot:

Because     (The Beatles)
Let's Misbehave      (Irving Aaronson and his Commanders)
Scatterbrain       (Frankie Masters and his Orchestra)
Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White     (Perez Prado)
Vivaldi's The Four Seasons     (don't ask me to pick a concerto...the thing is impossible)      
Blitzkrieg Bop       (The Ramones)
Good Ol' Days (The Little Rascals/Our Gang theme)   (LeRoy Shield)
Theme from "A Man and a Woman"      (?)
Bohemian Rhapsody      (Queen)
Linger       (Cranberries)

Lulu, Francis Lai wrote A Man and a Woman, not to mention Live for Life and, lest we forget, Love Story.  Where do I begin?

Thanks, JMK.

I know what you mean...I'm already contemplating listing another ten, just because I've already thought of a bunch I can't BELIEVE I left off the first list!

Oh, and I just received an advance copy of Richard Valley's Scarlet Street review of Kritzerland.  I'll add it to the Kritzer books section later, and probably print it in tomorrow's notes.
