Is that the Bill O'Reilly book Killing Lincoln?  I know it is in the process of being made into a movie.

Thanks so much!  You are a magician!

Well, I am good at making things disappear - like the last of the ice-cream (I'm currently in the doggie house for that one!).

Agreed.  It has more impact now--but, cool as ever.

Yikes!  Too much like Rolls Royce.

Would have worked back in 2000 and 2004.  Not now with this economy.

This is kind of a rude second post but how do I make the contribute to Romney thing go away?

Why am I getting red x's instead of icons?  And what do I do to post an avatar?  My brems is a little slow today, so it's difficult to read through all the posts.

Thanks

Usually you see red x's because of your browser..what browser are you using?

do you have a pic for your avatar...we can help..post it here or give me a link to it..

http://www.getfirefox.net/

Here is the link to download Firefox.

When the prompt comes up asking if you want Firefox to be your default browser, you can click "NO".

This way, you can experiment with it.  It will automatically put an icon on your desktop screen.

Explorer sucks the big one.   Firefox rulz!    :beer:

Something isn't pulling the images properly.  Let me know what theme you're using and I'll see if I can figure out what icons are missing.

I've looked for a donate button but failed to find one. Are the owners independently wealthy or did I miss something?

LOL...by no stretch of the means...retired military family here so you know I'm not wealthy.....up until now we have not asked for donations but this recent upgrade was costly..we are thinking of putting a paypal donation icon soon....

BTW  - FR and TBL (to a lesser degree) had pitiful response time last night when it was important. GBR was fast throughout. Your model is better and there don't seem to be any Mormon hating trolls here. You will get my former FR donation when you ask.
