vixmom - What a day you had, and what a good person you are to help people so selflessly.

I agree. You are inspiring.

Nice photo DR ELMORE!

DR JENNIFER - I have purchased additional copies of books at Amazon many times - but I haven't tried to purchase additional copies of E-books.....so I am not sure how that works.

That's what we are wondering about the e-books. It wouldn't really make sense that it would let you purchase an additional copy unless you clicked the gift option. Why would someone want the same e-book on their same account?

I found tab browsing to be useful when doing research. Easier than having six or seven windows open

We had a little rain a little ice and a little snow last night.  Today it will be in the 50s and all go away.  I am very happy we got some moisture.  We needed it

That is crazy that you can go from so cold and then get 50s in the winter.

I think we are actually supposed to warm up towards the end of this week (but maybe only barely 40F). And that is super unusual. IT has been freezing or under 30F the whole winter.

I have not, DR DakotaCelt, but apparently they are packing in the visitors now while it is possible to walk over the lake; a rare event.

It is... and it will become even rarer as the climate continues to warm

My favorite Kritzerland soundtracks so far include:
Firstly and foremostly, the Venerable Sir BK's wonderful corrected release of "Casino Royale" (1967);
It's not unusual, but next I have to list "Tom Jones";
Unfortunately for some DR’s earworms, oh you pretty Chitty Bang Bang, "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang", I love you;
You may be a "One-Eyed Jack{s}" around here, but I've seen the other side of your face;
Honey, pull down "Tristram Shandy" again for me, will you, and play some of "The Missouri Breaks"?;
Not to be a name-dropper, but as William M. Gaines would say, "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"!;
According to "Inspector Closeau", "there is a time to laugh and a time not to laugh and this is not one of them";
I have no coolness in me at all, except when I'm listening to "The Molly Maguires"; and,
One of mine and Bash Brannigan's all-time favorites, "How to Murder Your Wife”.

The supervisor removed it from my books and then put it back in, how I'm not exactly sure.  I told Keith to watch for any credits or charges because I'm not positive she didn't do it with my credit card.  It is what she originally was going to do but after I said that was stupid, or something a bit kinder, I think she managed it without the card.  It is funny how many ways they wanted to "fix" the problem that I refused because it didn't make sense to me.  It really annoyed me I wasn't permitted to speak to a supervisor when I first requested one.  I have a survey to fill out.  I hope there is room to express my displeasure.

Thanks for the reminder. I love both scores for "The Molly Maguires." Great CD.

Oh, I did have to do something from my end on the Nook.  Once the book was downloaded it still didn't show up for me to read it.  She told me how to add it back into my books.  The 2nd person I talked to wanted me to add all my books back in.  I don't know how the Kindle works but on the Nook that would have opened every darn book back onto my home page-no way was I doing that.

The fact that I now clearly remember recharging it last night and that I saw it was charged up when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night really freaks me out that this morning I had no idea, absolutely no idea of where it was. Oy.



When I charge my phone I leave it on top of my purse so I don't forget about it.  Maybe you can charge your phone next to your keys.
