Going to sleep all hopped-up on Vicodin is interesting not because of the depth of dreams it gives me, rather, that it masks them as memories. I now have memories of activities which never took place, and people I never knew.

The best part of my day? Uninstalling the Opera web browser and replacing it with Safari Beta 3. Much better. Thanks for the tip, drax0r

That's all you're leaving us with? No elaboration?

:(

Your dreams are always so 'interesting'!!!!!

It was like living someone else's life.

[galinda822.livejournal.com]

I gathered that from your post.

Was it like an out of body experience?

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

I dunno. It was...odd. At any rate at some point I became aware of what was going on. But only after a week of dreams.

Kiss my ass.

Dude, I didn't want to be the one to tell you this, but the Opera web browser kinda sucks.

Oh, and until you try Firefox or Safari in much the same manner I tried Opera, I don't want to hear it. Your unqualified opinion means NOTHING to me, or anyone else. Thanks.

I have tried Firefox. I ran it concurrently with IE and Opera. Opera won out. It's a better product.

Furthermore, the first thing I plan to do when I get my Mac is install Opera. I don't give a rat's ass about Safari.

I'm sorry you're of the old school and things like tabbed browsing and caching confuse you.

That's a fantastic idea! And now that Apple is selling their Mac's on x86 architecture, you could blow away that pesky OSX and install Windows on it! What a smart guy you are!

No, I want a browswer that works. The only one that I've had any luck across platforms with without being clunky or a plugin whore is Opera.

Thank you for your patience concerning this issue.

blow me.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

Aha! Another Opera user revealed! Tell us sir, why do you prefer Opera over Firefox?

[schpydurx.livejournal.com]

Good Man! Good Man!

[jaceman.livejournal.com]

You kinda suck for thinking Opera sucks.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, that wasn't my unqualified opinion.

Sweet Compass!

As you'll soon find out, that sir, is the icon representing Apple's web browser, "Safari" which is now available for Windows.

I run it when I require a second, non-Internet Explorer browser.

In a previous post I had downloaded and installed the Opera browser, but I found it was so much like IE, it turned my stomach, so I un-installed it and went with Safari, which I also run on my Mac as a second browser. Life is good again.

[photogoot.livejournal.com]

I shall have to do some reading on this Safari. It was some time ago now when you awoke me from my IE slumber and turned me onto Firefox. I love Firefox... what could be so interesting about Safari... you sir have peaked my interest.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

It doesn't replace Firefox. But it is a handy "second browser" when you require one.

I was at the Apple store the other day fondling the new glass and aluminum iMac. That machine is a whole lot of sexy, before you even turn it on.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

Aye, and the new iPod Nano - Wow!

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

I just came from Apple's site; I hadn't seen the new iMac's you referred to. They're unbelievable! Good choice.

[galinda822.livejournal.com]

Those are pretty aren't they?! My friend Chrissy just got a part-time job with Apple as a trainer. Between him and his husband they own or have owned everything Apple sells.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I think so too, all of a sudden!

Vicodin just knocks me out cold. I sleep like the dead. :/

I hope your back is feeling better. There really isn't any pain in the world like it.

[ehowton.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Its improving - slowly. Herr Doktor said two weeks. it's been just over one so I've a little ways to go.
