"From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master total and absolute, Listening to others, considering well what they say, Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
Walt Whitman (1819-92)
"When I look back now over my life and call to mind what I might have had simply for taking and did not take, my heart is like to break."

Trying out Blogbuddy here
add-on Function: noun
Date: 1946
1 : something added on: as a : a sum or amount added on b : something (as an accessory or added feature) that enhances the thing it is added to
2 : what Blogbuddy supposed to do to Blogger.
Figured I would try out some of the programs out there that say they can add some features to Blogger. Features I need include spellcheck (good speller but horrible typer) and any bells or whistles out there.
I love bells and whistles.
We'll see how it goes. This program supposed to work right from the system tray, which makes it convenient to upload whenever I like. If it works, and so far its kind of buggy.
OK, just checked the spell check and it does not work. This is not a good sign.
-------------entering from Blogger.com again
Well, its pretty much useless. The spell check does not work, the edit posts does not work, the password does not save properly. I can do better just logging into blogger. Oh well, maybe they can fix it?
I don't think necessity is the mother of invention - invention, in my opinion, arises directly from idleness, possibly also from laziness. To save oneself trouble.
Agatha Christie (1890 - 1976), An Autobiography, 1977
Image Problem Trying to counter its reputation as “America’s Fattest City”, Houston, Texas, put on the “Tour de Houston” bicycle event. The response was staggering: at least 2,300 people showed up, raising $50,000 to upgrade the city’s parks and recreational facilities. Organizers didn’t time the cyclists, noting it was “recreational, not a race.” Another reason for the great turnout: participants were given free beer and tacos. (Houston Chronicle) ...And they didn’t even think that was strange, which gives you some insight as to how they became America’s Fattest City. Available in This is True: Book Collection Vol. 11
