xsbaby’s college class canceled due to ice, NOVA opening at 10:30 and she has an 8 am class. She texted me in a panic at 9 am saying WHY DID NO ONE GET ME UP??? LOL! 34 at home and 36 here in DC, i saw no ice. xsteen parks at the fiances apt which is walking distance from Nutley st metro, so she can avoid paying to park at the lot there. They walk to the subway together in the AM. said they saw a guy fall and almost crack his skull on the sidewalk. i seriously LOL when i hear that bc i know that they grew up hearing me say watch out or you will fall and crack your skull, so often!

It is possible to post using the iPad. I have done it by setting up the post in advance and then emailing it to myself. Then, just copy/paste onto the Free Republic site.

Very similar. The selection of text on the Fire is a bit easier. The browser on the fire—Silk, took a little getting used to, but it is fairly intuitive.

You are setting the bar pretty high there. I have had a kindle fire for almost a year and still didn’t even know if I could post class from it.

If you can receive an email on a device, with the text properly HTML coded for Free Republic, you can use the device to copy and paste.

Bill Clinton would probably say that he was in bed and yelled, “Hillary,” but Hurley was in the next room and thought she heard her name so she went into his bedroom.

Great pic! Real winter this year in the midwest, reminiscent of the late 70s.

She was peeking over the top to try to spot DH and his snowblower clean the driveway. Her boyfriend, Cooper the Shih Tzu from down the street, just came to visit her.
