Jim, with winnings so high, tax is not an issue. If I win, I'll buy you lunch when you're back in Stuart. You can hang at my new residence in Sailfish Point!
Z, I'm leaning toward a problem with the firewall. Firefox snags on nearly every page so I 'snoozed' the firewall for 5 minutes and all is well. Something must have been blocked in the installation of update causing this to happen.
My computer worked fine until 2 days ago when I did some updates that involved virus protection and Firefox.
"This is what happens when more time online than actual real life never used to happen. Or are you searching places off the beacon track to be exposed to these online bugs"
Please explain your 'more time online than actual real life' statement. It doesn't follow logic. You are saying that I'm online more than my real life and that is causing my computer problems. Think about what you said.
There are no search places off the beacon track. The links causing trouble include: Yahoo, Google, YouTube, ConnectingSingles, giveawayoftheday, South Florida Weather Radar, T-Mobile. All bookmarked on this browser. With the exception of CS I've used the others for years.
rizlared, I bought a 5 station license for this brand of virus protection/security software. It's on several of my machines. The update adversely affected my office computer (running Windows 7) until a 2nd update came through and rebooted a few times. My home office (3 feet from this one running Windows 10) went through the same 2 updates and appears to be working this morning. The computer with the issues (running Windows 7) has a firewall and the others don't. I'm adding that to my list of compatibility issues to check. Also, I have a laptop I haven't used in a few weeks, I'll check it on the weekend.
Jim, I use CCleaner a few times a week. Nothing changed. I reinstalled Firefox. Nothing changed I had my virus do another update. Nothing changed. I turned off the virus protection and it started working better. I mentioned the update the other day may have been the culprit.
Same update came through my office computer and Adobe refused to work. It installed a 2nd update and I rebooted a 2nd time and it appears to be working normal now.
My computer at home is snagging on all my browsers.
QQ is what my wife uses to call family and friends in China. They all love it. Could be something to research. That is, if you're not afraid of getting your computer hacked!
We found two units today that were nice. The $270 a month HOA is what I was expecting. None of the listings mentioned $264 mandatory amenities fee.
My thought right now is to find a house outside of an association. The purchase price could easily be double than what I'm currently looking for, but the money spent on 'amenities' would be going to pay the mortgage.
That's something to consider as the situation has changed.
KN, while it bothers me to move to a condo, it's 15 minutes from my office. Depending on traffic, I'm driving 45 to 90 minutes to get to work. I'll be saving over $100 a month in gas. My car is 4 years old and has 120,000 miles. It's due for another round of maintenance. I'm on my 4th set of tires already.
I expect to recover 10 hours of not being on the road each week. I can think of many things to do with that time.
The important factor when choosing real estate is timing... if I see something good for me and hesitate, I'm sure it will get scooped up quickly.
We have 2 divisions. Production and custom. The salesmen in production have their own accounts and manage themselves. I head up the remodeling division doing custom work. That's the side with all the headaches. 7 years ago I was hired on as a project manager to a salesman who lied more than telling the truth. Management bounced him out and put me in sales. I sold and managed only my jobs for a few years. Custom work doesn't pay very much but things went smoothly for me. Because of this, I was asked to manage the entire custom sales department. That's when my troubles got bad. The other guys don't watch their jobs and things go wrong I have to find solutions to the problems. My office has been the dumping ground for all of their problems.
Example: We did a kitchen installation last week and the client says the dishwasher doesn't fit the space provided. Normally, we install a 24" piece of wood temporarily to hold the opening. I know the installers protocol. I sent someone to troubleshoot and he comes back with photos angle finder measurements that shows the cabinets to one side of the dishwasher are skewed. We say the client's granite guy accidentally bumped the cabinets out of alignment and glued their tops to the crooked cabinets. The client says different. I say the top overhang doesn't match the cabinets. It's uneven. They never should have glued the tops down If the cabinets weren't straight. They should have called it to the client's attention. Instead, they did their job and got paid and left. Now, the homeowner blames us for the problems.

Mercedes, that reminds me of the sad, sad story about the young boy who pulled on his nose so much it stretched where it hung below his chin. He had a really bad cold one winter and someone called him while running in windy weather. Well, his nose flipped around into his ear, at the same time he sneezed and he blew his brains out!
ayoneq, I usually keep an ice pack in the freezer at work but someone misused it and the chemical inside leaked out.
Blue... that's a good thing. You know what they say about woman who hold back a sneeze.
Fay... 17? that must be a record.
Bear, around 20 years ago I was rear ended while on the highway. It took lots of therapy to get through the pain. Sometimes it returns if I move the wrong way.
Jim... not that I know of. My allergies are usually from strong perfume.
