On my computer the number of posts shown as you scroll down is much fewer that it was before. You have to go to “previous entries” much sooner. Is everybody else experiencing this? Does anyone know why it changed? I like the longer version much better.

Technical Question
I Hate Facebook
Speaking of photos, Like a good little facebook weenie I went ahead and put together an “album” with over thirty photos from our R&R (or as I like to call it, “the rest of the story”). For some unknown reason, they all appeared on my facebook homepage as well as in the photo section.
I didn’t want them there. I only wanted them in the photo section. The only way to get them off my homepage was to delete the entire album, which I did. What did I do wrong? If I can figure out how to keep them off my homepage I’ll redo the album. Suggestions welcome.
Food
So. I would like to discuss hamburgers. A friend of mine has schooled me in the awesomeness of putting a fried egg on one’s hamburger. I know, I know - it’s weird. And yet brilliant. Fracking brilliant. Which made me thing of the little restaurant near our house in Cote D’Ivoire. They put french fries on the hamburgers there. Not as a side, no, they were more radical than that. The french fries were IN the hamburger. Twas brilliant. Fracking brilliant.
Now as we all know hamburgers are not traditionally my favorite food. So, of course, I decided that if the mediocre hamburger was this diverse Turkey Sandwiches (yes, purposefully capitalized as it should be) must be even more brilliant and diverse. It is not the case. In case any of you were thinking about it I would strongly advise against putting a fried egg on your turkey sandwich (yes, status lost).
I think I have been fooled for too long by the god of turkey - hamburger is clearly superior. I would figure this out so close to thanksgiving . . .
Cheers!
Pooka
My Pooka is making strange noises lately. I think it needs a check-up. It’s working fine, but it sounds like it’s dying a horrible, slow death.
Air Conditioner of DOOM
I am in need of assistance dear father. I cannot fit the stupid air conditioner into the stupid window. My main question is did we put in a new type of window down here recently because it is one of the side sliding ones that has two separate sides and no matter how I shift them, the air conditioner will not fit. I am almost100% sure that this is the correct air conditioner unless the one we used last for the basement has been taken for another window. Please help as I would like to get the air conditioner in before mom comes tomorrow. A call would probably be most helpful but I cant reach you because mom’s phone is off and I dont have another number for you guys. Thanks a bunch.
Getting Posts into Higher Gear!
I just downloaded a program called w.blogger, which makes posting and editing about a thousand times easier. I can write blogs off-line. I don’t have to load up the slow wordpress page. I can copy and paste much easier. Lots of fun, and fast.
Give it a shot: http://wbloggar.com/
Once you download and install, you have to set it up for WordPress, and it will ask you where some files are. Here is what you should put:
Host - www.wexforce.com
Path - /xmlrpc.php
It will ask you for your username and password. Be sure to type it in WEF1 or WEF2 or whatever, using the right capitalization. Then load it on up.
Let me know if you try it and have any problems!
Issue
I was signed in as WEF6. I had a draft I didn’t remember writing on the top of the page called “Aunt Terry Saves the Day”. When I went to look at it, I found it to be empty. When I used that empty area to write a new post, with a new title, it was posted under WEF3.5
I’m confuzzled.
