Time to talk about another feature. There are two ways for replying to a message: Hitting the reply button at the top or buttom allows you to just type in a reply; Hitting the little reply button in each message allows you to quote the individual message you want to quote.

This is my third attempt to post tonight.
Before I lost my weight I was leaning over the photo copier at work and my spare tire started the machine.
I still have not doen anything about Micro soft and oUtlook and Explorer. I just find them so slow sincew I have down loaded the newer version that it makes going on the web very frustrating. So who else has teh same problems with their program. Is tehre a spell checker with this forum?

Hi NNN,

Third attempt? Please let me know of any technical problems, if there any. We moved to a new, powerful server, and we no longer get those "too many connections", so we should be o.k.

I don't have problems with my software, but my hardware is toasted! I'm using a borrowed computer and all my data is lost!

There are several options to speed up a slow browser on slow machines. Tiny, fast, basic broswers (I recommend Enigma) are available, which are much faster. They can be used in conjuction with other broswers, so you don't have to uninstall/reinstall.

http://www.cnet.com and do a search for browser

Let me know if you need any help.

Hi NNNorma,

One day last summer, I was in a used piano store. Some guy bumped into me so I stepped back, you know, the "excuse me" thing. Well, there was an OPEN baby grand behind me, and to the amazement of everyone in the store, I found myself playing Mozart with my ass. Covered a lot of keys, it did indeed. :eek:

I forgot to answer this one, I was working on installing a spell checker before my pc was toasted. Now I have to start all over again. It will take me a few of days, since I'll have to find time to fix my pc and recover all my work. But it's in the works, plus other things.

Hi everyone! It's so nice to have a place that is truly Canadian! :) That dinner sounds like a great idea, as well as the coffee (de-caf I suppose!). I'm on day 11 now, and feeling great. Hopeing it just gets better from here. :)

Hi Tamarian, I recognized your name as well... it's nice to know at least one person here! :) Maybe I will join in on a coffee soon. This place is great with the Forums now!

I will see what I can do this weekend about my slow PC. I also have 30 report cards to start on which is a pain but has to be done. And it is like writing a 300 word essay or more with each card. Ugh!!
Catch you later I am off to work for a low carb day!!
NNN who did not eat the apple I got from a student but later weakened to bread.;o(

Hi Kelly,

Glad to see you here!

BTW, I noticed your email is used as your user name. If that's what you wanted, it's perfectly fine, just wanted to make sure you're aware of it ;)

I am not on the low carb diet, but am looking for ideas and info on what to feed my husband. They have to be dairy (except cheese) free and we are trying for low saturated fat. I'm a stay-at-home mom to 14 mo old twin girls so I don't have a lot of time to deal with cooking, even though it seems like that's what I do all day. :rolleyes:

[doreen T]

hi Kriste, welcome back, hadn't heard from you in a while ..;)

Um, you did ask this question way back in April, and got a whole list of replies and suggestions --- Click here to read them (http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?s=&postid=17494#post17494)

Hope this helps, keep us posted how you're doing when you get time .. (twins ... wow .. :eek: )

[tamarian]

Hi Kriste,

Doreen posted the same link I was going to post! :)

So I will just add this, you got one lucky husband! No one's cooking for me! :p

[doreen T]

hi Kriste,

At the bottom of the message thread, you can click on the printer Icon, to get a printable view of the messages. So, if you want to save all those suggestions and ideas, you can just print them out directly from the forum page, and stick them on yer fridge. Hey, we aim to please around here .. ;)

I am finally able to know my own name when asked, and so feel able to actually plan some meals. :) I will post at home the suggestions I got before plus the "quickie" meals FAQ (Karen's ?) that I had found.
