Bettenhawk, the browser on the machine you're using could be the problem. I use Firefox, but it doesn't support Adobe Flash, so I switch over to IE for my puzzling.

I like that Cherokee Expression, AS.
Hugs from the USA.

Cherokee Ex. really liked.

Hugs back to you and M - PW How is the new g grandchild?

The Cherokee quote was excellent Aussie, really beautiful. Thanks, bless you and a hundred hugs back to you my friend. Be safe.

1HATESIGNING1N - love your nickname, always makes me smile for some reason. Hugs.

Thanks Darambo, I needed that!!! Hugs.

Often when I walk into a room, I have to ask myself: "What am I here for? "

I found myself in a room and there was no question, "What am I here for." Of course, it was the bathroom and I figured it out by myself.

Hope it all came out OK for you PW hehehehe

The new great-great-granddaughter is eating like a little pig so she will probably end up with a well-rounded personality.
Yes, I was a little flushed by the time I finished, AS.

Hahaha - hang in there PW and blessings to Mrs PW for all she has to contend with hehehe. Hugs.

What do you teach?

Orinoco really great remark about the sloth! Had my first laugh of the day. We have 4 feral cats that we take care of and they let the 3 of us pick them up and pet them, but you should see them run if any one else stops by, then the dogs bark, so I guess they are our burglar alarm. Be safe.

Hi Orinoco, Darambo expressed my thoughts as well about the sloth. Hugs.

Abacii, I tutor ESL, English as Second Language. Some university students, some teachers, some just people who want to learn a little English.

I had 2 years of Spanish as a 2nd language. Easier to learn than English.

I always admire people who speak more than one language abacii and I would like to learn Italian. Just need to get motivated. Hugs.

I started out as a simultaneous translator, but after 40 you find another day job. I speak Spanish, English, French (which I can read but not write well), and a smattering of Italian.

As they say, the first sixteen languages are easy. LOL. In my experience, the first two are hard; after you get used to shifting parameters, the process gets easier...unless you change alphabetical systems as well! I only lasted six weeks in Russian class, and I was only 18 then. Couldn't learn to read!

I have traveled for work and picked up the courtesy and food words in half-a-dozen countries. I sometimes watch the Spanish channels to see what I remember.

I am (was) fluent in over 40 computer languages. They're hard to speak, but easy to read and write.
