I've been getting annoyed with Chrome lately, high memory usage and laggy loading images. Dumped it yesterday and started using Firefox. So far, so good. Would recommend.

I have 5 tabs open, using around 375mb of memory.  Haven't used Firefox in a few years.  When it comes to tech stuff, I hate change.  The change from blackberry to android was painful.   :rofl2:

I think I recommended this to you like 5 years ago.... ;D  Better late than never?

Puffin browser for Android is the quickest one I've tried...and I see they have a desktop version now.  **EDIT**  Just tried it in Windows.  Certainly seems faster!

FFS.....

In the 9th, Canada was behind 5-4.  Korean had 2, possibly.  But Canada had the last shot, and the center was wide open.  So all they had to do was drop it in...get their 1 point...tie it up..and go to the tenth.

Instead, they tried to get fancy (greedy?) and tried to knock all 3 of Korea's rocks out.  Instead, they knocked out their own...and Korea got 3 points.  Just awful awful play.

8-4 going into the 10th....with a predictable end result.

FFS....

Man alive
oh, sorry Justin.... Person alive...   :P

...have I ever encountered a large # of miserable, grumpy people with nasty scowls on their face today. 
Every one of them female.

I guess a lot of ladies had a $hitty valentine's or something???

I sent the former LadyO a dirty dick pic.

This one:



It was better than what she was expecting, and seemed fine with it.  ;D

She did send me a boobie pic:



I think we have the dad jokes covered at this point.  ;D

I heard that she's nasty when she loses, and she's now down 2.

Nice win by the women's hockey team though.

Thanks.  But if it was me, I was going to change that laundry room again.  Was going to stack the washer and dryer myself, and move the laundry sink from the basement, and put it next to the machines.  Want to give people the flexibility to do what they want. 

I added the tiles, the counter, and the 4 cabinets.  If they want it boxed in, thats up to them.  But I appreciate the feedback.

:thumbup:

Although, that doesn’t really compute for me. I’ve been “hanging around the house” since November, and that’s just A-OK by me. I’m going back to work for a 2-week shift today, and that’s okay too. Just going to be a bit of an adjustment.  :-\

Maybe it’s because for me “hanging around the house” basically means skiing every day.  ;D
