Im on dial-up myself.
Im not sure what browser youre using.
{I detest IE & ANYthing Micorsoft,myself.}

On the Mozilla Firefox 1.5.xx Im using rite now no pix is accomplished by..clicking:

Tools
Options

then selecting content

there is a check/uncheck choice to allow pix to load or not..

Im fairly sure you can right click & get a menu choice to laod pix individually so you then have the best of both worlds..ummm.... sorta..

I know this used to exist on Internut ExxxPlorer.
I dont know if it does or not..anymore
& honestly cant tell you where/how to find it.

I hope that helps & good luck with it.

Nothing wrong with that (waves to Cil), but I DO appreciate hanging with the "more adult" crowd, for a change.

Heh, not a problem, Failte. Makes sense, and it's fun to hear your anecdotes. ^^

and I had to comment on Zoom's Barbara sig.

I have always secretly hoped that song was kind of covert shout out to the lesbians.

only when Terri Clark sings it. no wait...that's not that covert is it?

so being "Country" is like being "Canadian"...?

Br&cy! Firefox here! AND OpenOffice.org!

And when I get a chance to play with it - Linux will be going back on my laptop (although I haven't decided which one... maybe Ubuntu...).

Right now, I'm on a Red Hat box. You... you wouldn't be a Linux fanboy, wouldja?

And btw: I was born in '61. Can anyone top that?

(usually... they can't... sigh)

1959

Yay!!eleven11! I'm not the oldest!

Although... I have NO IDEA who is, goddammit. Isn't that XenaFairy? I'm pretty sure it's not Tam... despite the T's in the name - wrong sig, and the T's aren't capitalized.

Gah.

And wtf is the deal with so many of you being in Texas? It's just weird...

it is weird about texas ain't it?

i'm not sure who eleven11 is, but overt country canadian is zoom.. notice the picture of xena and 'are you sitting on the soap'?

brucy and i believe xenacrazed have you beat also

Further clarity re: names...
I don't change mine often but if/when I do it will always contain some form of 997.

Tiny bit older than Shawn/ Whiskey Sour and Tam, tiny bit younger than you, zoom, Brucy etc.

Oh, and I like who I like.

I will always have XF3 in my siggys.
I was from Texas.
And I am definately not the oldest.

It's wrong that I'm so amused at Jack's inability to keep everyone straight *snerk*, isn't it?

Ah well, he isn't friends with me because I'm nice.

I'm an Oklahoma refugee myself. I've only been in Texas a little over a year. You gotta go where you make money.

Oklahoma! Me too! Born in Duncan, highschool'd in Tulsa, college'd in Norman, lived in Tulsa. Don't intend to go back, though. The summers just freakin' kill me.

And Sara - yeah, yeah, you've known all these people for years, and can tell who everyone is (and actually know WHO they are, rather than just their names) just by their choice of sig - even if it changes. Oh, I know... And I'm perfectly fine being the "weird new guy who posts too much" for awhile. Meanwhile, I'm taking YOUR word that these people are cool. Just as they're taking yours about me, I guess..

Anyway - I'm only friends with you because you said you'd send me your panties through the mail. You DID send 'em priority, right? Cuz otherwise they might lose... something... by the time they get here.

Stillwater (go pokes!) for undergrad/grad, Norman for law school, Tulsa for the law office. Fort Worth cuz that's where I found a job with an actual pay check.

<sniff> Does this mean I'm no longer Sara's favorite thing from Oklahoma?

You... you know the road between Stillwater and Tulsa?

You've been through Yale?

I LIVED IN YALE!

Gawd. Small 'net.

Hell, yeah, I remember Yale. You had to go freakin' 35 through that town 'cuz of the cop sitting at the bottom of the hill.

Former "Home of Jim Thorpe until that other pissant town offered the heirs more money..."

"stop being hard of the beav?" lol

Smirk - I left Yale (worked in Tulsa at the time - a 50-mile commute. Twice a day) two years ago.

We must have been there at the same time. Odd I didn't notice ya.

I worked in the CitiPlex Towers my last year there. Yeah. The "City of Faith". It was kind of embarrassing... but on the other hand, the place DID have kind of a campy, 1950's sci-fi feel about it.

I think I'll be okay as long as it's just Tam and Zoom who keep changing their names. Yeah, I know. Now the rest of 'em will start... Sigh.

No one's ever called me "Sparky" before...

Sara says I'm entertaining because I'm "charmingly naive". Fah! I'm a sophisticated man-of-the-world! I'm swavey and de-boner! Dammit! I do what I want, when I want and where I - oh shit, told the wife I'd be home by 4. I gotta f'ing go...


*edit for the cursing. no f words outside of Fight Club.

poor thing's been de-boned

It doesn't take much.

That's for the panty remark, ass monkey.

and Nora I don't have anything favorite when it comes to OK. I just have things I loathe less. heh

I still wanna know where I can get one of these "ass monkeys". They sound like a hoot...

Im the eldest daily poster around these parts as far as I know...

You know I suspect my 26 YO daughter is probably older than most scrollers.....


I DO have a Linux DL sittin around I wanna try out on something.
But Im in ill health & stuff is always more than I can keep up with.
My first Comp was a Vic20 followed by a Commodore 64 ..
then Amiga 500 then ..Amiga 1200 1st comp on the Inet....
then finally Windoze stuff...

It may amuse Sara that being 1 of the first arriving scrollers *I* have a devil of a time keep track of who is posting under what name when....
I arrived at the scrolls in Mar-April'98.
