Comments on: B is for Beer, by Tom Robbins http://john.jubjubs.net/2009/05/12/949/ my semi-regular stream of consciousness Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:21:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Matthew http://john.jubjubs.net/2009/05/12/949/#comment-9133 Matthew Sun, 07 Jun 2009 01:53:53 +0000 http://john.jubjubs.net/?p=949#comment-9133 Tom got me to hitchhike from Oklahoma to living in the Virgin Islands by way of hitting the ocean at the tip of Florida and finding a boat that took aboard thumbs and cooks who know how to make southern gravy. I have chased, dated, fell in love with, and been broken by redheads. I have tried every drug with every type of medicine man and shamen I have found. I am a hot mess breathing like a bandaloop, wearing patchouli (tried the Beat), and fucking like Pan. I think I had just took acid and finished with Heinlein's Stranger when I wrecked my dad's motorcycle and had time to kill. Of course I found Tom's stories at that tender age and frame of mind. I was in need of Jesus and found him instead. Mix in reading the Illuminatus Trilogy between any of the long waits for the next novel. I dare you. My friends and I hold CRAFT as often as possible. I also have James Joyce stuck in my head, smoke Camels, troubled with very young women, love Bring In The Clowns! I give Tom a HUGE thumbs up! My children and I love B is for Beer!

From now on I will have to go back to Explorer as surfing has become impossible mozilla. When I began losing all my bookmarks it was annoying. When I got locked out of anything requiring use of a password including myown bank accounts and email inbox, it was frustrating. Today I tried to print and mozilla prompts me to save it to my download "helper" instead, and apparantly there is no way around this through "tools" and "options." I do not want this extra step. I want to print straight from the page. I know I'm not the only one complaining about these issues and I'm probably wasting my time writing this, but please address these problems.
