ah, so, deleting cookies . . . . i forgot about that . . . . that's a
good one

what i need to do is change my administrative password on the php site
and i still haven't figured out how to do that

woodstock and i have totally different ways of approaching computers -

- but when both of us get on one computer it's hell - and right now
we're both on my hand-me-down reconditioned one someone else put
together that neither one of us is too familiar with (my old one got
zapped by lightning in november) so it's walking on eggshells time all
around . . . . . . shhhh . . . . . peacefully . . . . . . swan . . . .
