What's new

What are you guys doing right NOW??? ;)

Just came home from PF Changs! My husband and I split a dish of chicken lettuce wraps, crab ragoons and also ahi crisps! :)
 
Don't I wish! No, I was just crewing on it from the northwest pacific to Costa Rica out to the Coco's islands in the Pacific and then thru the Panama Canal and then thru the Caribbean. It was a wild wonderful and wolly experience! I had just spent 3 mo.s in Mali, W.Africa so it was quite a culture shock! Love every memory of it all!

Don't I wish, my camera was stolen in Costa Rica....so I had to rely on a few photo's from the rest of the crew who scattered when ever and where ever they chose to. However I have some great photo's from my BFF if you would like me to pass them on! They are on a 34' sailboat and it was just used as a part of a remake doc. So if you would like some photo's just ask, they will come to you. I don't know about the whole site. I'd have to ask her about that but I know she has no problem with me sharing with you guys. Here for the asking, :-). Thanks for making a smile of my day! DM.

Syncing my iPad to my Windows desktop for the first time. The MacBook's iTunes is running terrible, and my Windows computer has plenty of space and RAM.
 
Re downloading ALL my music from youtube because I only had a few songs in iTunes. AND I have to re download all the podcasts from iTunes :(
 
Malaysian for dinner, then went to an Asian market to restock up on tea, which we do every few months.

Asian market = hundreds of types of tea. We came home with about a dozen.

We also restocked on Cafe du Monde's chicory coffee, which is especially popular with Vietnamese, who were colonized by the French in French Indochina days. The market sells the coffee for a fraction of the cost of Western markets and and there was a sign with the price by caseload as well. I guess people buy and bring it back to Vietnam, too.

Just a couple of things here which may help....

1. Always make sure that your HD has at least 10% clear space on it, because of the way Mac's work they can start getting jittery if they have any less clear space.
2. Open Disk Utilities from your Utilities folder, then verify and repair permissions, sometimes they get a little jumbled.

If it's still not running right call 911 and claim insanity!

We await your usual excellent photos.
They are in the pipeline. Some need rotating/cropping etc.

Now, just for tasters.

Lisbon has its population of beggars. Some play the accordion and carry a sweet dog on their shoulder etc. I hope this post doesn't offend, it's a series of observations which touched our hearts.

I was quite saddened to see the blind and maimed ones travelling the metro. One guy had an amazing natural rhythm beating a broom stick on the floor of the train as well as tapping a metal mug, the stick and the grab rails of the train with a spoon. He would do well as the drummer for a band.

If you add English as an international keyboard, you'll find that spell check will work in English for you. Settings/General/ Keyboards/International Keyboards/Add

I have French and German added and spell check works in the other languages.

Nice tip, Kevin. I've just added Spanish. Gracias. Spellcheck wanted to change the word to Gracie's!
