Question for those who are having trouble on WS. Are you all using a computer, or a tablet? I do OK on the computer, but the iPad is really glitchy, and it almost always is on the Sidebar thread. I don't have the same amount of problems on most of the other threads I frequent, though I do sometimes.

As for the slow typing..... I am often words ahead of what is being typed.... and get mighty annoyed waiting for it to catch up, with many misspelled words. Gaah! Sometimes there is only one post showing and a white blank for the rest of the page. It may or may not eventually come through, or I might have to close the site and re-open my page. Try to post, and when I hit send it just hangs ... may or may not post. Everything comes and goes, sometimes it works great, other times it is like deep doodoo. Ah well... as someone sad somewhere, WS is free, I guess I can deal with it ...... usually ..... mostly ..... as long as I can come and vent.

I'm on a plain old desktop computer. I don't have all the same things happen that you do, but I have definitely had my share problems. Ironically, it only happens to me in the Sidebar thread too! It makes absolutely no sense, because this thread doesn't have nearly as much "traffic" as most other threads. :confused:

I agree. We had hoped the new thread would make it better. I reported it a long time ago, but got nowhere. Inmate #whatever put a spell on us?
 
It was 95 degrees here with humidity. I mistyped humidity the first time and it auto corrected to nudity. So 95 here with nudity. I got a NetGear Wifi extender, the best one they had, only to not be able to set it up because the first Comcast person had wiped out the password along with the wifi. So the fourth call to Comcast fixed all the issues. Adam from Comcast stayed on the phone with me and went way beyond, helping me get connected just right. God Bless him as I had had it. I had been outside in the garage where the cable comes into the house and got overheated/stressed/lost speech/lost my mind. Fortunately Adam was able to do most things to fix it remotely. Persistence paid off.

I am so sorry so many of you have similar issues. They are so frustrating for sure.

BBM: :shame:. Actually, that sounds about right. With 95 degrees and humidity, I might prefer to be nude, too.

I have occasionally had a very nice Comcast helper to walk me through issues.... not always, but it is wonderful when they know what they are doing, or are persistent. Good for you, Zuri! Enjoy the better reception/connections now.
 
And that is sooo unusual for JA. It's just not in her character at all to lie :liar: :lol:

Oh, that's our Jodi -- she's such a kidder! If it weren't for that slight M1 misstep, she'd probably have her own show on Comedy Central by now!

The TRUTH or Fiction "Bigfoot"
"I don't believe that these creatures realize that their tracks are what's giving them away. Otherwise, they wouldn't be leaving them."


BigFoot History
What could possibly be the undisputed facts concerning the legendary Bigfoot creature mystery? it is a incontrovertible fact that for over four hundred years folks have documented seeing massive, hair-covered, man-like animals within the geographical area areas of North America.
It is an incontrovertible fact that sightings of those animals continue nowadays. Real or not, these reports are usually created by folks of unimpeachable character. it's an incontrovertible fact that, for over seventy years, folks are finding, photographing, and casting sets of terribly massive human-shaped tracks. Most have been discovered inadvertently in remote areas. These tracks are still being found to the present day. It is an incontrovertible fact that the cultural histories of the many Native American and initial Nation peoples embrace stories and beliefs concerning non-human "peoples" of the wild. several of those descriptions bear a likeness to the furry man-like creatures still today.
These are a number of the facts. There is, however, abundant disagreement on what these facts mean. To many, these facts, taken along, recommend the presence of an animal, in all probability a primate, that exists nowadays in terribly low population densities. If true, this species, having possibly evolved aboard humans, became surprisingly adept at avoiding human contact through a method of natural process. To others, these same facts purpose to a cultural development unbroken alive nowadays through a mixture of the misidentification of noted animals, phantasy, and also the deliberate fabrication of proof.

BigFoot Fun Facts:
1) 1) As long as individuals are recognizing Sasquatch animals, even as several or a lot of are faking proof of constant. From manufacturing Sasquatch costumes, pretend tracks, to producing Sasquatch proof, hoaxsters have duped friends ANd family into basic cognitive process that they had an expertise with Sasquatch. Today, Sasquatch sightings still occur, whether real or not, it's up to you to choose.
2) Since the mid-19th century almost like Asia's yeti, Sasquatch is multifariously represented as standing 7–10 feet tall and deliberation over five hundred pounds, with footprints seventeen inches long.
3) The British expeditionist David Thompson is typically attributed with the primary discovery (in 1811) of a collection of Sasquatch footprints, and many alleged prints are adduced since then. Visual sightings and even alleged images and filmings (notably by Roger Patterson at Bluff Creek, Calif., in 1967) have conjointly contributed to the legend, tho' none of the putative proof has been verified.
4) Many movies and such are created regarding Sasquatch, making a form of Bigfoot-mania created up virtually entirely of hoaxes. Serious Sasquatch researchers were ignored throughout the times, a lot to their dismay. However, once some years passed, it was over, and sightings went all the way down to the occasional stories individuals were accustomed.
5) A Soviet biologist, Boris Porshnev, advised that Sasquatch and his Siberian counterpart, the Almas, might be a remnant of Neanderthal, however most scientists don't acknowledge the creature's existence.
