And so ...

I hate it when software insists on updating itself when I'm in the middle of a project. Convenient? No.

I also despise APPLE for their sneak attack Safari-dumping. No Macs here, no IPhones, no silly little music boxettes, OK? My ears are clear. Safari is *not* what I want. I have Firefox 3 beta 5 running, I have the newest Opera running. Take a hike, Safari!

So, that said, I did manage to finally get the Saltation chapter up today, about an hour late. Even if it isn't as clean as it ought to be. Some drafts are like that.

Chess tonight. Maybe I'll get to try out my new digital clock. I kinda dislike digital clocks, which are hardly as readable as analog for someone who has been playing chess with *real* clocks for 43 years, but I'll need to have some experience with them if I want to TD these days. Progress.

Soon we'll have more info for you about the Write-a-thon for Clarion West. Wheee....

We see that Sony's online e-book store admits we exist:

A cute thing is to try searching on Steve Miller ...
if you find that page with a photo of a guy with no beard? That ain't me.

Hokay, away we go!

I can certainly appreciate problems with Safari and Apple, if they are dumping on you. However, I have a Mac and since IE doesn't support Apple anymore, my default browser is Safari. I can't get Chapter 15 to come up on my Safari browser. Just the promise of a chapter today, which was there this a.m. Does this mean I have to move my bookmarks, etc. over to Firefox? I can do that, but it's kind of a pain. Anyway, just thought you should know that it won't come up on Safari after several tries.

Chapter Fifteen

"This one needs some smoothing"

I'll say. There seems to be a fair amount of something missing between

"...neither has indicated a claim of victim, precedence goes to the senior."

and

"Theo vibrated with anger and tension..."

Wow, are you sure that is not you? It says he has been married to Sharon Lee since 1980.
Maybe you were just having a bad hair day

Speaking of pictures - long-time buddies/collaborators/singersongwriters/Lubbock Mafia wierdos Butch Hancock and Jimmie Dale Gilmore bear a *slight* resemblance to each other n mediocre photos.

Te story goes that one year the program book for the Kerrville Folk Festival got their names swapped under their pics. Or may not have.

Anyway, someone thought it had, and before the program went to press, corrected the apparent error.

Then either Butch or Jimmie Dale saw it, decided it was still wrong, and re-corrected the correction...

Several more "correctios" allegedly followed.

The best version of the story, which must properly be related in an absolutely straight-faced manner, ends with Butch and Jimmie Dale not only uncertain whose pic was who, but even somewhat so as to which f themselves was which.
