I never used to. In fact the change of seasons is why I love it here in the “Midwest”
( Whomever called Ohio the Midwest, NEVER looked at a MAP of the whole USA. )
In fact even in my late age I have often been known to call people up at ANY hour at the first sign of snowflakes Continue reading
As a builder of web pages for various organizations, I have developed one policy. For just about any link on that site I use the trick that causes the link to open in a separate tab or window. Here is why
In my early days of browsing I would often click on links of interest and after a while find that I could not get beck to the original page That I found in my search results, because each link abandoned the previous page. I found this to be frustrating.
When I became a web site builder and discovered this trick I was filled with GLEE. This allowed me to embed as many links as needed and my audience would not lose the page my clients page that I got them to open originally. Thus helping to keep people on the clients web page so they can find it again and hopefully book mark it.
(if you click on the GLEE link, you will see that you can still come back to My page and not lose this article, the one that I WANT you to read)
I use this primarily when links will take you to sites off of the clients website.
It seems though, that MANY in the web site builder community are quite snobbish about this and think that this practice is a CRIME! I feel it serves the client to a far better extent. I will continue to use it as long as the trick works.
What do you think? When you are browsing, do you find it truly annoying that separate windows open, or do you fin that it is better so that you don’t lose the original page you found?
I would like your Opinion – Please comment below.
Looking for ‘Nuff Comments:
The time has come for me to face the fact that I HAVE A HEARING DEFICIENCY THAT IS AFFECTING ME AT HOME AND AT WORK.
I have been aware of my slow degradation of my hearing for about 7 years now, and it is reaching the point where I have to take some action. I have had Tinnitus all this time and the ringing sometime is very loud, but I have just grown used to it.
I find that I am often missing important information being spoken around me at work, and people find it funny (“are you DEEF”?) . Its not funny, y’all.
The biggest reason for my not acting on this is the horrendous cost of hearing aids. As more and more of us baby boomers get older the need for this product is slowly exploding, yet there has been little done to allay the cost of these very much needed devices. In today’s technology climate where every version of an electronic device gives you more for less $$, Hearing aids should NOT COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS!
I had dug into this a few years ago with the only answer was having to go offshore to get hearing aids at any kind of reduced cost. This morning as I was doing some new research again on this subject I found a company online called Embrace Hearing. Started in Philadelphia by a couple of smart young men, I may have found a very reasonable source for all of us to purchase hearing aids at very reasonable cost.
I will be wirting about my experieince with this proces and with this company as it unfolds Ech writing will have this same tile, and sequential “part x of ?” title so you can follow along.
If by chance you also suffer form this affliction and would like to ad your comments or even a guest blog posting, feel free to leave me comments or get in touch with me via the “contact me” menu above.
Stay Tooned!
I have lately been suffering from Web Sparkleys, also known as WEB A.D.D., or if you are a regular Blogger it may be known as BADOLAIBS.
Do you also suffer from this Continue reading
My wife and I have raised 3 children to adulthood, each successful in their own way. All are married, all have families, all are employed. Mrs. Air Cooled and I are very blessed.
When they were in their late teen years, I told each of them the following:
“You are a product of the influences of us for all of your life so far, as well as a mix of other outside influences. Your personality, your strengths and weakness are what they are at this point. I challenge you to Improve the Mold that made you who you are.
Become better than Me and your Mom. Take an introspective inventory of who you are, and how you became that person. Consider all of the traits that came from living in our home for most of your life that make you YOU. Determine what the good parts are and make those stronger in you.
Then find the one or two personality traits about me or your mom that absolutely do not like about me or you Mom that you see in your self, and lock that in your mind. Now from this day forward spend the rest of your life eradicating that from your personality so that you don’t pass that bad trait on to children that you will have. Then pass this advice onto your children when they are old enough to understand this task.”
Only time will tell………..
‘Nuff Said that to them many years ago.

am I still on her and have access? Yup all work good. OK . I wanted to make sure my eternal wisdom that I have imparted in the past is still here for the Masses ( does that means lots of people , or is it a religious ceremony. hmmm)
And for the few followers I may have remaining I do have thought from time to time but I and Mrs Air cooled have been so busy this past year that I have not had the time to do any writing……….
