I've done exactly that on many occaisions. I always pig out if any
deviled eggs are made. Can't help it.

I sometimes have deviled eggs as the protein part of a meal, but I always
have some crudites along with. It's scarcely a meal if it doesn't have
vegetables.

It's probably yoose and Popeye's software. I don't have a problem
reading them. See if yoose can find a setting to wrap the lines instead
of having to rely on other people to compose just for yoose.

Of course you can boil eggs in an automatic rice cooker. I've done that. My suggestion is to steam the eggs instead of boiling them. When the measured quantity of water is gone, the cooker turns off or goes into the keep warm mode.

The real irony is that you want me to revert back to computing of the 90's so that you can read my posts easier. I cannot do that because Windows computing is like the dark age for me. It's all like a very bad dream and now I have awoken.

OTOH, I am trying to set up an old Dell notebook to run propitiatory Windows dino-ware. The hardware on this thing is pretty much overwhelmed by Windows. With the original OS installed, I got 4.7 GB left on the 30 GB drive. This means that I don't have enough room on the drive to do the security and Windows update. Jeepers! I can't believe they sold computers like this. The good news is that this computer might be teal in color. Very hip!

It's Google Group's fault. It uses a non standard line length, or no
line length at all, more likely.

I can press a key to make it wrap, so it doesn't run off the screen,
but you're still looking at lines that are the width of your entire
screen.

Yes, if I have a lunch or dinner without vegetables, I feel like a
child at a birthday party.

Which key?

It's essentially only those two whose tying goes off the screen, most
everyone else wraps perfectly.

Yes, it's only the Google Groups users. Google Groups does a lot more
wrong.

Does she talk about Google Groups a lot?

Sheldon, I don't believe I have ever lied...not even to my kids. I purposely use the "Return"
key when I post, so on my iPad, it looks almost like a short line. I can't recall anyone else
ever complaining about line length in my posts.

Don't worry about it. It's impossible to know what will set Popeye off.
You might have simply used the wrong brand of lawn mower blade or water
filter. Or (god forbid), he may have found that you have an inadequate
basement.


You snipped out everything the diminutive sailor wrote, but I imagine he
called yoose a liar and faggot? That's his standard insult.

I wouldn't worry about it. In the future, people who complain about you using a mobile device to post, will seem to be seriously tech-challenged, backwards, and over-the-hill. They are the children/disciples of Blinky the Shark. A true charlatan if there ever was one. He spoke and they believed. They believe to this day. They anxiously await the day when everybody sees things their way. It's kind of a sad thing to see.

I'll try the letter O key and see what happens, thanks.

Sometimes a scroll bar appears at the bottom to scroll horizontilly
but sometimes not.
I like Forte Agent, gives me no problems, of course I don't use all

What exactly did you have against Blinky? Did he disrespect you in a
web design group? He was a respected, erudite poster for the all too
brief time he was in RFC. He also shot fantastic food photos. But then
he should have. He was a professional Hollywood cameraman.
In what group did you bump into him? He certainly made a impression on
you.

Popeye, yoose shoiuld look in the 'sent' folder of yoose news program.
Yoose can't remember 5 min, so yoose should keep this folder open so

At least there would be no food fight. At least not with the deviled
eggs. Maybe we could fling mashed potatoes or pork n beans.

Uh... There's a scroll bar, Crystal Palace King. You can also use

Blinky wasn't as well respected as you think, at least in the group
I remember him (I think it was alt.usenet.readers and servers).
Though I didn't disagree with him on his opinion of Deja-Google, but
many of the 'facts' he presented were simply wrong and he refused to
acknowledge them.

Never saw any food photos. He never posted to alt.binaries.food
that I remember.

I had no contact with him that I can remember. The only thing I didn't care for was his "Killing all posts from Google Groups" bit. Lots of folks ate that up. His legacy is that people who use Google Groups get hassled for the dumbest things by people that know nothing about Google Groups. That is simply wrong. I saw none of his fantastic food photos. I would have liked to.. I like nice food photos.

Blinky represented his opinions, coupled with enough knowledge of the
subject, to argue with conviction. I don't remember him as a Luddite,
but I could be wrong. I occasionally posted to groups in favor or
opposition to him. It would probably only have been in the Mac groups
(not likely), the web design groups (likely) and certainly here.
I distinctly remember commenting on some okra that he took a picture of
just before he died. I have never frequented ABF. I do remember him
commenting on how sick he was in some group just before he died with
what he thought was the flu. He died alone.
My memories are fragile, but I was always a year older than he was, so
I win. His posts were always interesting to me.

David (dsi1) is just representing Blinky as being a luddite in the
previous message because Blinky hated Google Groupers and their
defective reading/posting interface (which is even worse now).
David thinks anybody who doesn't worship Google is a luddite.

It is funny, though, that he remembers being so butthurt by Blinky's
comments about the Google news interface and its users that David so
dearly worships. That was .. what... 10+ years ago? It definitely
made a lasting impression on him, as you noted.

Of course you can boil eggs in an automatic rice cooker. I've done that. My
suggestion is to steam the eggs instead of boiling them. When the measured
quantity of water is gone, the cooker turns off or goes into the keep warm
mode.

The real irony is that you want me to revert back to computing of the 90's
so that you can read my posts easier. I cannot do that because Windows
computing is like the dark age for me. It's all like a very bad dream and
now I have awoken.

OTOH, I am trying to set up an old Dell notebook to run propitiatory Windows
dino-ware. The hardware on this thing is pretty much overwhelmed by Windows.
With the original OS installed, I got 4.7 GB left on the 30 GB drive. This
means that I don't have enough room on the drive to do the security and
Windows update. Jeepers! I can't believe they sold computers like this. The
good news is that this computer might be teal in color. Very hip!

You're probably safe if I show up, though. I rarely eat anybody else's
deviled eggs, because of the high chance of pickle relish.

Sheldon, why are you complaining again about my not quoting? It has been explained
several times why that isn't possible with an original iPad, like I use most of the time,
and I always try to refer to the person to whom I am replying....there is no reason to
complain about my most recent post, which I addressed to you! What kind of reading
comprehension skills do you have? None? So sorry. Not.

Several ppl have complained about line length and/or lack of
quoting from a few. No big deal if they used a real newsreader or
learned how to use it. Even my old version of Netscape fixes
that.

I can set word wrap for both outgoing and incoming messages
Using "normal" headers, I also see references to previous posts
in the thread. Just click back a message or two. So simple. When
you don't quote, I can read what you are responding to with on
simple click.

Here's my "normal view" headers for your message:
=================================================
Subject: egg cooker question
Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2019 05:57:57 -0800 (PST)
From: Nancy2 >
Newsgroups: rec.food.cooking
References: 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11
=================================================

Those reference numbers are active links,
I can click on any one of those to read a
previous post in the thread. I can read
what you were responding to. Easy enough to do.

No. Both computer above and your cooking pot are blue.
They both need some yellow coloring added.
Teal has a very distinct green cast to it.

Once on a Boy Scout camping trip, I tossed an unopened can
of Pork 'n Beans into the campfire. This was just a fun to do
thing for us young boys. We all knew it would explode once
it got hot enough. So we all hid behind nearby trees to stay
out of the way.

Within a few minutes, that bean-bomb detonated with a fairly
loud bang. The two ends of the can were never found. The round
body of the can was straightened pretty much. All trees and
tents within about 40 feet were covered with pork'n beans.

It was pretty cool. ;-D

That looks and sounds tasty. I googled a recipe for russian
dressing and see that it's an enhanced mix of mayo and ketchup
which I love. I'll have to try that soon. Only thing I don't
currently have is Frank's Hot Sauce but I normally keep some
handy.
----------------------------------
Epicurious recipe:

1. 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion.
2. 1 cup purchased or homemade mayonnaise.
3. 1/4 cup ketchup-style chili sauce or ketchup.
4. 4 teaspoons bottled horseradish, or to taste.
5. 1 teaspoon hot sauce, preferably Frank's Red Hot Sauce.
6. 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce.

Nope. No you didn't....not unless you changed into your superhero

When I was the reserves we did that with the canned Jambalaya that came

Using Netscape Navigator and/or a Windows desktop client program/computer is not practical at this time. In the future, Microsoft Windows will once again become the preeminent OS and people will once again use desktop systems.. Netscape Navigator will rise from the ashes. Cloud computing, web apps, mobile computing, and multiple platform computing will be seen as just some crazy fads.

This will be when you guys will make your move. Well, not literally you guys because this will happen in around 10,000 years and we'll all be dead.

The good news is that people have and always will be resistant to change and will always ridicule people with new ideas and ways. That is the natural order of things. It is built into our DNA and just one of the peculiarities of being human. As we all know, ya can't fight nature.

Well thank you for that. I don't know nothing about color. If you want to know something about color, you ask a painter. If you want to know what the weather is going to be like, you ask a surfer.
