Roses More Roses: I'm glad to hear that worked for you. You might never want to use your IE again after downloading Firefox:-) Something to keep in mind though is that some web pages won't work right in Firefox. Depends on what kind of possible script/HTML the page is running. Occasionally I have trouble accessing or navigating a secure site using Firefox and I will just use IE temporarily. Otherwise I have sworn off Internet Explorer entirely and do not miss it. RamblinRosez: Just do a Google search for Firefox or follow the link below.

Maybe that's how the subject came up - the ads. I don't remember the cereal pop-ups being a problem for me (thanks AOL), but that could have been the reason for the start of the thread. However it came about, the favorable comments on the cereal (not the ads) were what lead me to try it.

Timmy, you sure got that right. Not the Honey Bunches of Oats sexy hair net but the advice about tissue analysis. I only wish I knew how to get a tissue analysis done. Everyone knows more than I do. For anyone who might be able to offer even a small speck of wisdom, here is my story: Last season was my first attempt at gardening. I learned that I am not blessed with a green thumb. On the evolutionary scale of gardening talent I dont even have opposable thumbs. I care for plants about as well as Godzilla cared for Tokyo. This year I have been trying to learn as much as possible so that I might do a better job. This is what I have done so far: May 27: Last Frost Date. 8 - 10 a.m. planted seedlings. 11 a.m. checked to see how much they had grown since planting. Noon, no signs of progress. 2:30 p.m. still no signs of growth. 5:00 p.m. everything still looks stagnant. May 28: Worried and confused I ran out and purchased MG Tomato Formula, Tomato Tone, Bone Meal, Blood Meal, Lime Pro, Green Sand, Triple Phosphate, Tomato Maker BER Solution, Fish & Kelp Emulsion, Peace of Mind Tomato Formula and a pH testing kit. (Soil test resulted in a pH of 6.5 on the Richter Scale) June 1: I erected a Scarecrow to stand guard over the garden. June 2: The next day there is a bird boldly perched on the head of my Scarecrow pulling out the hair to build her nest. June 9: I spotted a yellowing leaf with some tiny orange dots. June 10: Worried and confused I ran out and purchased Daconil, Mancozeb, Maneb, Bordeaux Mixture and Liquid Copper Fungicide. Worked some Tomato Tone 4-7-10 (3% Calcium) into the soil. Foliar sprayed with Daconil and watered with Fish & Kelp Emulsion 3-2-2. Trust me, I didnt catch the fish for the emulsion. June 17: Side dressed with Tomato Tone. Found that my spinach was being eaten by our local neighborhood ground hog. Borrowed my neighbors dog to stand guard. June 19: 2 days later I found a slug. Broke open my penny jar and lined all my wood-framed tomato boxes with a wall of copper. Remembered to feed the dog. June 21: 2 days later I watered with MG 18-18-21. As an afterthought I remembered to give the dog some water. June 23: 2 days later I am worried and confused. The dog is not looking well. My neighbor took him back. Our local neighborhood groundhog regains his territory. All my Spinach is gone. June 28: Watered with Fish & Kelp emulsion 3-2-2. Sprayed the perimeter of my garden with Fox Urine. I seriously doubt that our local neighborhood groundhog will even recognize the odor. Nobody has ever seen a fox in these parts. June 29: The next day a fox showed up looking for a territorial fight. I thanked God that I didnt spray my garden with Mountain Lion urine. June 30: MG and Fish/Kelp Watering. MG and Fish/Kelp foliar spray. I found an Orient Express cucumber 35 days ahead of schedule. It is 9 inches long. Ill give it just one more day. July 1: The next day my prize cucumber is gone. I purchased a faux owl. Even up close it looks very real. July 2: The following morning Ravens are raping the owl. My Scarecrow is bald. The local neighborhood groundhog is peeing all over the fox urine to reclaim his territory. Cats are pooping in my garden. I consider applying for membership in the National Rifle Association. July 3: MG watering and MG foliar feed. Fish & Kelp watering and F & K foliar spray. Daconil spray and my last Aspirin dissolved in a gallon of water for an Aspirin spray. Then I get a headache. July 4th: Plenty of crisp garden lettuce for the burgers. Fed my neighbors dog a huge steak cooked on the grill. Its the least I can do.

I had hesitated writing the spam thing. There were two that showed up recently and a few of us got caught by it. I really want to apologize, it just seemed a bit connected with the other experiences. No problem with the link either. As I said, the ad is still bugging me so options are welcome. And, actually, maybe this is a bit humerous considering your user name. Anyhow, forgive me for going a bit overboard and OT.
