ANGER


Today is the first day of the A-Z challenge and Minnie has been so excited to give you her first "Minnie-ism"



Anger
" Anger is a healthy vitamin that should be taken between meals at least once a day"



(Don't mind these guys, they are just Minnies Groupies.)

THERE IS A FIRE IN MY FOX!


It is official. My computer and I are on unfriendly terms. The other day I was happily blogging away and suddenly Firefox decided it didn't like my pictures and would not download them into my post. All I got was Internal Error code 501. I tried everything I could think of and even turned to Mr. Google for help. No luck, so you know what? Now I have Firefox, Explorer and Chrome. I have 4 email accounts that I am having trouble keeping track of and none of my files are talking to eachother. Explorer and Chrome have no problems with downloading pictures into my blog, but Firefox even after reinstalling it will have nothing to do with my pictures. All this started with that stupid FBI symbol. Maybe that picture started all this and now my computer is just being unreasonable. It seems to have declared war.I have to constantly check where my curser is because it also has a mind of its own and just jumps off to another spot, in another paragraph, or just plain old highlights and eraces in one single finger click. I am getting so frustrated or maybe a better phrase is I AM GOING CRAZY.  How can I blog like this? I just wish I could put out the fire in my fox before I burn down the whole computer.

I hate it when such things happen to me. Hope your relations with your computer improve soon! Happy A2Z :)

I have firefox too and no problems. I wonder if you got a virus with the FBI picture.

Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em! I had to add Chrome cause blogger just about stopped letting me post at all using explorer!

I so hear Minnie on her anger issues! I think computer wrestling brings out my inner Minnie, too!

Hannah said...

Computers bring out the rage in us all. Good luck with that!

Ella said...

Minnie says is best; Fun post! I am sorry for your anger though. There is nothing worse than a fire in your fox, well there is, but I bet that is another post ;-D

It's gotta be a conspiracy. Inexplicable things always are. That's what I tell myself to keep the old anger stoked. I hope your computer woes go away soon. Minnie is maximum moxie. I like her.

I've been having issues with adding pictures to blogs too! It's so frustrating! I love the Minnie pictures!

Jules said...

NOW I understand your comment. I have noticed Firefox and blogger are not good play buddies lately ;) I love your Minnie though :)

Oh I feel so bad for you! I had the same error, and a 503 error code I believe. I love your first post!

Firefox totally refuses to work with my computer. That is ok I prefer IE anyways so there!

Happy A-Z Challenge!

I have a love/hate relationship with computers. I love them when they work, but when they refuse to cooperate, . . rage is my friend. Lol.
I hope you get Firefox straightened out, but that does sound like some kind of virus.

I am likewise angry with my computer today. For some reason I can't see certain images and WV words on the IE browser I normally use. It's been really wasting my time on this busy first day of the challenge morning. Fortunately it works on Google Chrome so I guess I may have to get used to this until I can figure out the other problem. But this April 1 I'm angry and annoyed--maybe it's an April Fool joke.

You started the challenge off very well.

I think Nancy may have the key : a virus hitched a ride along with your FBI symbol. I hate to suggest you spending money, but AVAST ANTI-VIRUS is free on the internet and updates repeatedly every day.

Personally, I believe that Wiley E. Coyote is somehow connected to my family tree, for all the machines I operate eventually behave as if they were from ACME! Roland

Few things are as frustratting as computer problems. Grrrr.

I got a virus that started like that. It then went on to conpletly destroy my computer. I started adding porn icons to my desktop at light speed and there was nothing I could do to stop it. Im not talking light porn either. I would get it checked out. The original problem went on for about 4 months before the porn thing broke through.

Look at you starting the challenge off like a rockstar! Anger - the first blog to visit that had used that word!!!!

I'm here to welcome you to the A to Z blogging challenge. I'm one of the co-hosts, should you have questions just ask away! I do hope you'll stop by my blog! I'm also having fun on twitter (@jenunedited) and about to stalk you there!

Me n technology of any form don't get along ;)

Ugh. Anger hardly describes the feelings I would be having. Good luck. Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Greetings from Minnesota.

I wonder how kind you are because in your anger you still seem to be sweet. Wishing you smiles today! :)

Hey didn't know if you'd come back to see my response to your question on my blog so I decided to bring it on over. The answer is simply this.
I looked at the scar Siv! I looked at the scar!

We all have days like that when our computers start acting on their own impulses and refuse to cooperate. If I followed my instincts I'd be without a computer and with a pain in my foot. :D
