the things that asks for street sign or cars takes longer than it ever did and the pictures do a slow fade to come on and then it does it again.. its a pain this never happened before.. surely once is enough to prove i am not a robot..
. . . we respect each other's privacy and we also have Windows laptops which we don't use any more. I hope this is helpful in some way. -- amicabl
Since no one else uses my ancient DELL laptop, I remain signed in. Much easier, you're correct.
Some day, when I grow up, I will get an iPad. My current, ever useful and trouble-free notebook consists of paper. The only minor inconvenience is sharpening the pencil.

The Finale (Allegro molto vivace) was the movement in which Schumann said that for the first time since his illness started he “began to feel like myself again.”
The rhythm of this march-theme (a long note followed by a dotted rhythm) appears so frequently in his music that some commentators call it the “Schumann rhythm.”
The Symphony in C Major was the first major piece undertaken in this new way of working. It was actually Schumann’s fourth work in the genre, preceded by the “Spring,” the first version of the D minor Symphony, later to become his Fourth, and his “Sinfonietta,” (the Overture, Scherzo and Finale.)
The result is a quotation of the final song of Beethoven’s An die ferne Geliebte (To the Immortal Beloved), where Beethoven sets the words “Take them then, these songs.”
i have been going through old papers and photographs since my mother passed away.
it has reminded me of some of the reasons that i really hate november.
this year has added to it obviously.. thirty-four years ago, my father passed away in early november.
Sorry, JK:
Your subject title reminded me of what I read for the first time, some 50-plus years ago:
No sun -- no moon -- no morn -- no noon, no dawn -- no dusk -- no proper time of day, no warmth -- no cheerfulness -- no healthful ease, no road, no street, no t'other side the way, no comfortable feel in any member -- no shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees, no fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds, November! -- Hood [Epigraph to PART TWO, NOVEMBER, The Egg and I, by Betty MacDonald]

Thanks, Diogenesister and Terry, for your replies.
Good philosophy, Terry! When I first began editing (you were one of my first "clients"), I was less aware than I am now. Rewriting, with an aim towards simplicity, can eliminate complex structures that demand extraordinary punctuation. I, for one, now tend towards clarity and simplicity. Not so in my youthful prolixity.
Diogenesister:
Perusing books and periodicals in my country (USA), I have found that, virtually without exception, periods and commas always fall within the close of both single and double quotation marks. Question and exclamation marks may be within or without (outside) the close of quotation marks; it depends whether the question or exclamation is, or is not, part of the quotation.
greetings, lovers of both the sacred and the profane!.
i posted on the gilead song thread, where a tune of unimpeachable wholesomeness was wafting through the fetid air of my chamber.
if you can get through the annoying vehicle ad, the famous scene from the film crossroads will turn you off forever to saccharine, gagacious music.. happy listening .
Thanks, jp!
i recently learned of the term "hanlon's razor".. wikipedia defines it as: .
hanlon's razor is an aphorism expressed in various ways including "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
" it recommends a way of eliminating unlikely explanations for a phenomenon (a philosophical razor).. so could it be said that this applies to the gb / society ?.
Philosophical razors:
In philosophy, a razor is a principle or rule of thumb that allows one to eliminate ("shave off") unlikely explanations for a phenomenon.[1]
Razors include:

Commas within quotes:
The most common question people ask about quotation marks is whether periods and commas go inside or outside, and the answer depends on where your audience lives because in American English we always put periods and commas inside quotation marks, but in British English periods and commas can go inside or outside.
we all know that this cult will drive those trying to leave to desperate measures, and today by brother was very nearly one of those statistics.
he slashed his thigh with a kitchen knife and was bleeding out until he called the police.. i got a call on my way home from work from a police officer, coincidentally it was one of my old friends from school who's now a cop.
he told me my brother is in hospital after an attempted suicide and has lost some blood but will be ok. but i should get to the hospital as he's asking for me.
Im happy with how it went. Any hey, i even placed a book! -- pale.emperor
Thanks for the update; it's great you were able to talk to the therapist sans JWs present. Those of us who continue to deal with like issues understand. When I was in a life-threatening situation, the thought conveyed to me by family was not preserving the present life but seeking everlasting life. It was then I regretted "bringing" my family into The Truth.
Where will you make a notation for the placement?
Blessings and Peace.
