Just Browsin'
I would like to take this moment to reaffirm my commitment to using Firefox instead of Safari as my browser.
There.
Silly me! As my computer has been agonizingly slow for the last several months (something about 2,000 songs and 2,000 pictures...wha?), I was minutes from dropping bank on an external drive. Nothing new here. Fear drives most of my retail activity and my 'puter luck rates up there with my car tire luck - sometimes, with a small sigh of resignation, they just eat it. Ask the folks at Tekserve.
"I'm sorry, but we're just going to have to erase your entire hard drive. There's no other option. That'll be $500. Can you step aside, please?
Ma'am...?
Can you hear me?
You're kind of freaking out..."
But Firefox - oh Firefox - you've opened my eyes! Man's alive, it wasn't the G5! It was SAFARI. Or at least the Tandy computer version I was running. Firefox is - hands down - the best thing that's happened to me since breakfast. Considering I had a Balance Bar for breakfast, that's pretty high praise. And though I really try hard not to hold grudges, fingers crossed someone is mauled by a stampeding gang of bloodthirsty meerkat sometime on its next trip to the wilds of Afrique. And by someone, I mean Safari. Clearly.
And speaking of all things incredibly Foxy...
I've been trying to track down Superman to see if he wouldn't mind flying around the world in reverse so that I'm back living on Willow Place, two blocks from Montero's - home of the SEVEN HOUR "happy day" - hangin' with the homeslices in celebration of the Fantastic Mr. this weekend.
But it's been surprisingly difficult trying to figure out the Daily Planet's e-mail extension.
This is made all the more bitter by the fact that my PARENTS might be going to the party. Oh woe.
