Great pictures, Carol! I wouldn't use fruitcake mix myself
because I don't like peel except fresh or citron but just
use cherries and pineapple.

Oh puleease! You know what, I've lurked and read here for ages so I
know you well and your trends. Like talk about on and off! If you
don't like what I post great. So far, you have called me names and
insulted me so hey just because you don't agree with what I post, so go
ahead a killfile. This post was not directed at you but yet you take it
personally so go right ahead and killfile. Like it really bothers me in
the least. FTR, this ng is about cooking not Damsel or et al or their
lives or the things going on in their lives but *cooking*. Others here
have really shitty things they have to deal with in life yet never whine
on and on about it as you or some of your cronies do. So go right ahead
and killfile. While you are at it call me every name you can come up
with and then more like it will really bother me. OTOH, you may just
miss some great recipes or cooking tips as I tend for the most part to
stay on topic. What do I care if you miss anything. You will still be
whining away a long time after I'm gone. I have news for you, you
aren't the end all be all of this newsgroup. Have a good one...

- I'm baking up a load of squash tonight. It will be froze into
individual serving sizes for later use.

Actually, yes sometimes yahoo won't load then other times it is pissy.
On a good day I can view your pics.

Thanks! I won't be using the mix with my next batch. This was a
decent recipe, but I actually grew up with dark fruitcake. I'm in the
process of reclaiming it. Next month ...

Why do you think a banner advertisement should not be considered an
integral part of a web site?

I got theh free ring tone as part of a "log in" screen when I clicked
on a legitimate link. I wouldn't call it a banner and I can't call it
a popup and it's a BIG concern because it looked like a legitimate part
of the web page. Banner/popups are often carriers of something bad
that will attack unwary users when they click on them (I know because I
spent many days deleting big time trojans from an auxiliary computer in
my house that is for "kids" use). I use a HOSTS file on my personal
computer at home, so I don't usually need to think about those things,
but the computer I'm using now isn't protected by one. Maybe your
computer is protected by a decent HOSTS file - so that's why you don't
care. Most people don't even know what a HOSTS file is.

One word. Sheldon.

I liked the pictures, and so did a lot of other people. Someone has a
martyr complex.

Ok, I remember Sheldon making fun of her pictures, but I tend to skim
his posts :)

I love pics of food. tbh, a.b.f. is the reason I paid for a separate
news account when I had dial up :) More fun than cookbooks, because its
*real* food!

I have individual.net, so I can't view the binary groups. So I
appreciate the pictures that people post here.

The only thing I find is that apparently Sheldumb the Idiot had nasty
things to say about the images themselves. Why would listen to him?

Oh, Barbara, I didn't know this. I am sincerely sorry for your loss. I
think the loss of one's mother is particularly devastating, at least it was
for me. My thoughts are with you.
