Tasks 9 & 10


After much head banging and lip chewing, I finally figured out how to upload my bookmarks to del.icio.us.





Of course, they're not in any kind of order, so...




Now I have to figure out how to organize them, and then use them.

Onward and upward.

Not overly fond of snakes, so liked today's BC. Ask me sometime about the bull snake I chopped into little pieces. My boys were young and wide-eyed at what mommy was capapble of doing if she set her mind to it.

Tasks 9 & 10

Still trying to figure this one out. I'm registered at del.icio.us and managed to add a site with taglines to my account, but that's as far as I got. The 12-minute video was not working, so I couldn't watch it. Consequently, I'm struggling with this one. I'd like to add more sites to my account, but some of them I want to be private, and I couldn't see how to do that. Will try again later. In the meantime, have a laugh and try http://www.arcamax.com/ and click on "the funnies." My favorites are "BC," "Wizard of Id" and "Zits."

Picture gallery





























Thought I'd post a few more pictures for your entertainment. Yes, I'm cheating and posting from my computer, but hey, whatever works!
Pictures are labeled below, top to bottom.
Had to add a picture of the granddaughters--L-R Ilia, Danae, yours truly, Halee.
Sedona, AZ--a place we like to visit.
Looking north from our timeshare in Pagosa Springs
McClure Pass
Red Mountain--Idarado
Continental Divide--Wolf Creek Pass looking west
Original cabin on our high country property--we've built a new and bigger one.

RSS???

Eureka! I've just set up an account on bloglines and subscribed to some blogs and news feeds--I think. We'll see how it goes. Some of my "subcriptions" are not ones that I picked (at least not consciously) but they're there and seem to be fairly innocuous, so guess I'll leave them and see what happens.

Absence

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. As many of you know, my mother-in-law passed away on the 24th of May. That and a very bad cold have kept me out of the loop. But hopefully, I'll find time in the next few days to "go boldly" forward with the projects as outlined by our fearless leader.

For those of you who are Trek fans, here's a little something to argue over--or not. Sent to me by my nephew who is working on his docoroate in communications.

One of the (dorky) staff at Cracked has compiled a hierarchy of Trek > films: (my nephew's comment; not mine--but I have to say he's probably right. Anyway it was fun to look at. And, frankly, if you're a Trek fan, you tend to overlook a lot of stuff, simply because it is Star Trek--my comment.)
