That book is over 500 pages!

There is no Allison Hayes in the index, but Frances Farmer gets ONE mention.....probably in the cast last of The Party Crashers. I think I will look for a used copy someplace.

DR MBARNUM... I think you can get spell check back if you surf HHW using the FIREFOX browser.....I think it depends on the browser you are using whether to have SC or not.

Nope, spell check is not available in Firefox. I use it and it's not here.

Do any of you NYC folks get Connecticut radio? It seems I may be interviewed soon by some morning show about Frances.

Wow, that is amazing. I never knew that there was more than one France.

Why? You have a photo of his back.

Not that I know of, I never opted out of it. I remember having it but never noticed it was gone until people mentioned it. It's not in Chrome or Internet Explorer either. Although if a word is underlined in squiggly red and I right click on it Firefox does offer choices to fix the word or add it to the dictionary. Is that what you mean by Firefox having a spell check? Now that I read your other post I think that's it. The spell check is not on the HHW site but it's part of Firefox.

Flying causes dehydration so it is important to drink water. I tend not to when I'm flying but do force myself to. I prefer my own bottled water only because I can keep it next to me instead of needing a tray to hold the plastic cup. Recommendations are NOT to drink the tap water on a plane & airlines don't always serve bottled water, another reason to carry ones own water.

der Brucer - elmore's explanation is basically correct.

After I learned the hell they put BK through, I only purchased used copies of recordings from their inventory so they would never see a cent from me! Nobody dumps on my friends.

You dump on me.

Wednesday morning greetings! It's another bee-yoo-tee-ful day here in SW Ohio and Richard and I have a fun date set for tonight. We're going to the Dayton Art Institute auditorium for the Dayton Metro Library-sponsored appearance by Rick Steves. Dayton is a stop on his Road Trip USA and, frankly, I'm more excited about his visit than President Obama's visit last night to attend the basketball game.

Are you planning a trip?

DR Elmore I am also confused about your twitter problems. When you go on twitter you only see the tweets of the people you follow. But even if say you followed 500 people. Twitter even lets you put people into lists. So you can just view one category of people at a time. This is what I do. For example I follow alot of authors. I have them all in a folder called "authors". So any time I wat I can just look in that list and I see only their tweets.

I seem to be getting as well the damned tweets of every person I'm following, not simply their tweets. I wouod swear everyone tweeting our E&T DR Jose, for exammple, is also sending them on to me. So, I have to say that, even if I weren't sifting through a million of "I'm at the bakery," the pornographic ones an orchestrator friend sends out thinking he's funny, as well as the others are a perfect waste of time and sense.

You can unfollow people if you don't like their tweets. Or make a special list of the people you find worthwhile. Then you can just look at that list.
It makes it much easier to read only the tweets of interest.

I've reached the conclusion that there are no tweets of interest!

My wife was as Costco today, and some employee pushing a merchandise cart accidentally ran into her back.

My wife has had 3 back surgeries.

She's now lying down with a heating pad on her back and will be going to see her doctor tomorrow.

Oh, your poor wife. I hope she is much better by tomorrow. Did someone report this?

For the spell check issue, it might be a browser setting. I use Firefox and it indeed tells me if a word is spelled wrong

My friends Ron and Patrick are tring to get me to go out to our local gay bar this Friday night.

I just don't know that I am in the mood to sit around feeling old amongst a bunch of annoying 20-somethings while dance music I don't know is blaring.

I told Ron that if he could get them to play some Bollywood music I would go.

PS: I have not been to this bar before. Last time I went to a gay bar in Salem must have been well over ten years ago, and that one closed down several years back. Even then the only guys our age were the lushes (among them, one of my ex boyfriends) who are usually drunk as a skunk.

I have, on the other hand, during these last 10 years, been to gay bars in Portland where the clientele is better, and they have naked dancers on stages.

Portland has always had nice gay bars. The ones I used to frequent when I lived in Portland are probably all gone by now. However, they never had naked dancers when I lived there. Does Oregon still have the crazy law where taverns must close at 12 or 1, and the cocktal lounges could stay open until 2.

I always thought it hilarious on the London cassette recording of "A Little Night Music" that they broke "In Praise of Women," so that it starts on side A and then finishes on side B.

On a record or a tape? I remember having several tapes that split a song in half.

By the way, has anyone checked out the new show GCB? I watched last Sunday's episode and enjoyed it...it was nice to see David James Elliott and Annie Potts on TV again.

I had no idea this show would be so funny. I'm really liking it so far. But it's not really what i was expecting.

Jennifer · « **Reply #119 on:** March 14, 2012, 03:39:26 PM »

I also miss the spell check option (i use IE). I am fairly good at spelling. But sometimes when i type quickly i can make mistakes. And i hate typos. Plus sometimes when i don't know how to spell a word i used to like being able to check the spelling before i posted.
