Hmmm...I think that's the one where the couple is tortured and killed, right? Yuck. I can't stomach the real violent movies anymore.

Okay, I'm off to bed I'm so tired. I can't even finish my Lighthouse ride report. Sleep tight and sweet dreams, So Calers.

I woke up to the sound of someone roaming about my apartment. Which is a bit freaky given that I live alone. Thought it was just a dream and tried to go back to sleep, but there I was, in a half-asleep daze, hearing someone pacing about in the dark. Quickly looked around and couldn't see anyone, though a few shadows gave me pause. Figured someone had broken in and stolen Vivian and left, except then I heard the pacing again. Very steady pacing, not coinciding with my breathing or pulse. Then I figured out what had happened. As I was sleeping, I had rolled onto my side and wrapped my left arm around one of the pillows. And what I was hearing was the really quiet ticking of my watch (one of those battery-less watches powered by motion), something that on rare occasions I can actually pick out, but in this case sounding funny because it was muffled by the pillow.

Yup! Firefox when I'm on my PC, and Safari when I'm on my Mac. I hate IE.

I've been using Firefox and EI but this latest EI which came with Vista on my new PC uses a Google toolbar and I cannot use its bookmark unless I register with Google which requires my email address. That sucks. I will be setting up Firefox as my default browser.

Seems that most people who install Firefox prefer it over IE...

I would hope so seeing as IE generally is initially the default browser on their computer, so only people not satisfied with inertia would go installing something else. People who are satisfied with IE generally wouldn't bother installing Firefox.

I seem to not really care what browser I use. So I default to Safari on Mac and IE on Windows.

If firefox was a bicycle, i'd buy one.

I'm pooped... Happens every time after a triathlon.

And i'm still going out for a ride later this afternoon with my sister and her husband...

I was afraid to get out of bed while someone was roaming around. I would have had to confront the person I thought I heard walking about in order to reach the phone.


Anyway, no riding for me today... promised to have lunch with PFGS and talk some chemistry. I guess I should get ready for lunch.

I have no idea what I have. I plug the cord in and I ordered Time Warner. I get internet (very fast, might I add). So, I don't know what Firefox or IE really is or if I have one or the other.

Question: Is it possible to place my Yahoo email icon on the Firefox bar at the top? If so, how do I do it?

That's true...I installed Firefox a couple years ago because IE was crashing (blue screen of death) so much, especially on this one website I was going to all the time. Firefox is SO much more stable. I left IE on my computer but rarely open it.

Wait...I'm assuming you have Yahoo DSL like me...Yes you can u-install IE but why would you want to? It comes in handy sometimes for some functions..
