Well, I have my computer back and everything is hunky-dory! I got onto the Internet with no problem at all! Whew!!
Hi all. I’m new in the community. Thought I’d look in and see what you good people get up to.
Vibes to MR BK for the fire.....Good news from DR GEORGE re: His computer.It turns out of course that my Firefox crashes were being caused by a program offered by COMCAST, that I had installed to make myself "safer."I uninstalled it, and things seem to be working fine.....except now I am just half safe.
London!!!How wonderful.
Welcome, DR Doug R! How did you find us?Did you lose a bet?
Quote from: MBarnum on September 15, 2011, 08:27:29 AMIn honor of our new DR being from London, I just ordered a DVD of the British film THE GOLDEN DISC (aka THE IN-BETWEEN AGE)....England's answer to Columbia Studios' 1950s rock and roll films.I feel so honored! I thought I knew all there was to know about British films but I don't think I've ever seen that one.

I thought I knew all there was to know about British films but I don't think I've ever seen that one. I see that David Jacobs plays himself in it. Jacobs is something of a British institution having been a TV and radio presenter for so many years. He's still going strong as a presenter on the BBC at the age of 85.
As for the Topic of the Day...There really is nothing like a good ole Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie that's still warm from the oven.
I'm up and have at least had a good telephonic conversation regarding the hiccup. I've sent a requested e-mail and hopefully this will work out, although the fellow who called and who could take care of it is leaving town today. But he promised he'd get it to someone who can take care of it. The other guy I'd called and written and who I know is out of town, too, but will be back shortly. So, keep sending excellent vibes and xylophones for a happy conclusion.
And the word of the day is: POLYMATH!
And I have just now purchased my very first Kindle book! What else, but Benjamin Kritzer: a novel [Kindle Edition]!

DR Jane is being overly kind about DR MBarnum's taste. But, then again, our DR Jane is a very kind lady.
Yes DR DougR, if you stick around, and we hope you will, I will introduce you to British films you never imagined your country would dare make.
