Come on down to Greifer's Used Auto Sales...We're WHEELIN' AND DEALIN' ! 

In a follow up to my previous post, The 68 LTD's frame is rusted beyond repair and the car will never see the road again....But still a good deal just for parts! I went into the trunks of both cars via the back seat (no keys :p) and I crawled into a place where no sunlight has been for 10 - 20 years or maybe more! I found an unusual lawn chair.. I will post pix of that at a later date. AND I found TWO traffic tickets in the Imperial glove box form 1970! 

 

It may sound strange, but a lot of life can be summed up in a simple dish of ice cream.

It can be as plain and vanilla as you like, or it can be full of exotic and interesting flavors.

You can't just sit and admire it, it will melt and lose its essence....to enjoy ice cream, you need to seize the moment, and enjoy it while it's really "ice cream"...not a soupy mess.

It's a simple pleasure that needs no explanations...it simply is what it is...and it's as enjoyable as an adult as it was when you were a child.

And every so often, you encounter a few nuts in the bowl. :)

I received that little fella in the mail. He's getting ready to make an appearance.

EDIT: LJ's ScrapBook is f'd up. I can't set the image to "public"... I tried all the different forms I know to do so. But there seems to be an issue with the login to ScrapBook...

EDIT-EDIT: It seems that ScrapBook ignores every chage to the file BUT instead sets it to "private". Re-uploaded and left it without a title. It seems to work now :(



On a technical note - for those interested out there - this puppet by Folkmanis has a feature I've never seen with them before: there are wires inside the ears to keep them pointing wherever you want. Other than that, it is pretty comfortable for bigger hands. Not as large as the sheepdog but still very comfortable. I might shorten the tongue a bit - it sticks out with the jaws closed :)

We're going to keep this short and sweet (Frank and birthday vgifts will be back next week). You've probably seen the updates to our main menu. Don't be alarmed. You'll find everything you need, just in slightly shifted format. Just so you know, we based these changes on input from both experienced and new users who were not familiar with LiveJournal. Our goal was to reduce barriers to usability and make LiveJournal more accessible and easy to navigate. Please note that this is a work in progress. We welcome your detailed suggestions in feedback. We thank you, in advance, for helping us improve your LiveJournal experience.

We've updated the global navigation menu:

Here's a quick breakdown of what you'll find where:

• Scrapbook can now be found under My Stuff, along with Settings, Stats, and Edit Profile.
• You'll find all the tools you need to post and update entries under Journal, which includes posting and editing entries, managing comments and tags, and customizing your journal's style.
• Friends contains all of your friend settings, from filtering your Friends page to adding, removing, and finding new and existing friends on LiveJournal.
• Under Communities, you'll find links to manage your communities, accept community invites, and create new communities.
• Explore includes search features, RSS feeds, Question of the Day, and FRNK radio.
• Under Shop, you'll find links to upgrade or give a paid account, buy virtual gifts, purchase LiveJournal merchandise (like T-shirts), and view your payment history.

LiveJournal Mobile update:

We've enhanced LiveJournal's mobile site to improve usability and load times. We've made more of LiveJournal's features accessible via mobile, including posting comments, uploading photos, reading and commenting on friends' posts, finding and messaging friends, and more. We look forward to reviewing your feedback and recommendations for future improvements.

Other important changes:

• You can lock comments to prevent further commenting on a post, while leaving existing comments visible.
• We replaced the "Tell a friend" link with a new "Share This" widget that lets you share LiveJournal posts on other social media sites, including Facebook, Digg, Twitter, etc.
• We changed some of the icons on entries (you can hover over the icons to view descriptions).
• You'll see a Tag count on your Tag management page.
• You'll now see the 10 most recent vgifts on your profile page. To remove vgifts, left-click on the vgift and choose whether you want to remove the vgift from your profile or delete it entirely.
• We've added options to help you control receipt of vgifts, which you'll find in My Stuff under Edit Profile. You can now enable vgifts from friends or everyone and disable anonymous vgifts.

We've got your fix:

• UPDATE: We understand that Scrapbook was broken by our latest release. We're working on resolving this issue as soon as possible. In the meantime, please be aware that you cannot edit or delete photos, manage galleries, or add titles to photos. In addition, you may not be able to change privacy settings on photos. In other words, once you try to edit a photo, the changes will not be applied, and the photo will be automatically set to private (which cannot be changed).
• UPDATE: There was an unintentional change in the price of userpics. We will do a patch release to fix this ASAP, and we'll refund anyone who purchased userpics at the higher price.
• Non-conforming images will now be automatically resized for custom mood themes.
• Line breaks no longer count as two characters against your entry's character limit.
• We fixed a bug on the Manage Tags page so you can clear all tags and add new tags.
• We corrected the UI for the update.bml page so it displays properly in IE8.

Thanks again for joining us. Frank and company will be back next week!

I'm the Writing Guest of Honor at Rainfurrest this year. Can there be surprises at that convention? Yes. Yes there can.

Slowly getting caught up on watching movies and adding to my DVD collection. Watched Robin Hood this past Friday after buying it the Saturday before and watched Lion King 1 1/2 last night after receiving it over the weekend. Planning on watching another one later tonight. I pondered doing a poll though to see which one I should watch next... along with a few other polls DVD related.

So... here it is! :)

Poll #1538983
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 43

What movie should I watch tonight?

Which Disney movie should I add to my collection next?

What other movies should I add to my collection?

Well, the ex-boyfriend got sentenced for 3-10 years in jail for the entire incident. He got what he deserved.
