Continuing Blogger follies.......

Every major post to this here famblee-site gets also flown on the blog — in fact, some of the rather off-the-wall responses have got flown on the blog too.
So readers know all about the almighty Bluster-King, and how he noisily declared the mighty Mezz was lax because it was run by only one guy, the all-powerful Tim Belknap, who was reprehensible because he inadvertently committed a couple of grievous spelling-errors (POT-CALLING-THE-KETTLE-BLACK ALERT!)
The 89 bazilyun other editors, including Boss-Man and K-Man (the Managing Editor), most of whom I once pictured, got noisily brushed aside. The almighty Bluster-King wanted to bluster my employer was reprehensible — after all, they had to be to hire a reprehensible person like me — and the all-powerful Tim Belknap was the sole, and easy, reason.
The usual noisy sturm und drang from West Bridgewater — towel-alert lest you get drenched.
The blog had an updated software available; and I switched to it after continually getting an update-or-else site.
I had to use Linda’s ‘pyooter to update — FireFox. No “continue” button under Internet-Explorer.
Updating generated more hairballs. You could post under the old software with IE, but not with the new.
You could also edit with IE under the old software, but with the new you got a blank page.
So I tried Netscape. That would allow me to both post and edit, and even had the add-picture icon.
So I tried add-picture the other day, and it jumped into the ozone.
We are back to adding pictures with Linda’s FireFox; and after that editing blows up my Netscape — I can’t transfer the image-tags into my picture-tables.
Blogger seems to only want FireFox (that’s what they say), which I can now get, since I’m running OS-X.
One wonders why a blog-site can’t set up to use the browser almost everyone uses: Internet-Explorer? I also like the way it blows up my Netscape.
