Thanks. The description on the Supernano Marconi Gold sounds interesting -- a yellow, half-runner, Romano would be an excellent addition to my bean selection. I'm happy with the current yellow and purple bush beans -- Dragon Langerie is the bean I plant when I can only grow one and Royal Burgundy Purple Pod is a definite improvement on the old Royalty Purple Pod for my purposes (which may not be anyone else's purposes so anyone inclined towards purple beans should try both). So its the pole and half-runner types in yellow and purple that I'm wondering about. As for the cowpeas, I won't say that you couldn't pay me to eat beans in the shell stage, but it wouldn't come cheap. ;-) :-D LOL I've never enjoyed limas, shell beans, or any form of dry bean except lentils and garbanzos. Are there any particular cowpea varieties that are better as snap beans than others? I'm enjoying learning to grow the heat-loving veggies I've never had before.

I have never seen Open Office offered in firefox install has anyone? I have seen it offered in some other updates like java and flash in the past. also make sure when you do firefox updates and the browser reopens to a new page other than your homepage to close it and reopen it again because it only does that the first time to let you know that it did update properly it does not change the homepage the next time you reopen it will be to your usual home page. It will do the same thing if you had any updates for your add-ons it will open to that page to let you know the update was successful. If you did install Open office it will be listed in your add remove programs list in control panel.

I thought to ask whether you felt that some women and some men can be best friends, but later in the thread, some spoke of having best friends of the other gender. My mother was ill from the time that I was about six and I had fairly good friendships with a couple of the spouses of our farm helpers, who helped with housework, but they were rather short term, though I recognized one over 20 years later (while we visited the psychiatric hospital, where Mom had been confined and our farm helper's daughter was then, after some hassles with drugs ... and where my ex- later worked as second, then head, of food service for nearly 25 years) ... and I was rather friendly after meeting her that time, for several years with her and her husband. While I don't think that Dad ever told me that he loved me, I knew that he did ... and if I remember correctly, brother said a while ago that he never did to him, either, that he could recall. Brother that took over the farm said that he and Dad worked together for years and never had more than rare and inconsequential disagreements. I can't think of the major family difficulties that mar many family celebrations. My brother is loved by most everyone who knows him, I think, as he doesn't get perturbed much, and is kindly to most everyone, often helping others when they have need ... built a ramp for wheelchair access to their village church. We had some problems with stepmother, who came into the family after I was away to university, as she could be nice at times, but turn mean in an instant. Her daughter didn't like her and picked a cousin as sort of a substitute mother. Step-sister and my brothers got along well, as she does with me, but I seldom see her. She has said on some occasions that Dad never treated her any different than he did the boys, which she appreciated (though he never adopted her - she had a living father for years). Our other brother died in an auto accident in his 40's, over 30 years ago, when his kids were in their teens. We keep in touch with them - I visited all of them, and sister-in-law, within the last month - in Edmonton ... and Georgia. ______________________ Hi Kathy813, I'm wondering whether you would consider it too much of an intrusion on your privacy to discuss the matter, but when I read your message that you don't have a best friend ... and wish that you did ... I wanted to ask what you felt some of the reasons might be, whether you considered yourself too shy to reach out, or had some that you hoped would develop ito best friends, earlier, but were disappointed, or had some more or less so, that moved far away, etc. As I said ... I don't want to trample on your privacy, to walk around over your heart with my hob-nailed boots, etc. I think that it's apparent from what many have said that good friends are precious, add some wonderful new dimensions to one's life, etc. ... ... and worth making some effort to develop, if one has any interest at all ... and worth taking some risks to develop, I think many posters here would say. Ask most of them whether they'd want to give up their best friend ... and they'd likely quietly shake their head, smile, and say, "No way!!". Good wishes for the rest of the weekend, everyone. ole joyful
