I'd rather have a spiral honey ham and glazed sweet potatoes.



Edit: That nets me a crepe maker (home use) and still the cast iron camping cookware. Sure, I'll trade that in on what's behind curtain number 3.

Don't we perpetuate the subject of the ads by quoting them in posts?

And shouldn't spyware-blockers minimize their accuracy? (Do we all have 'em?)

Edit: no ads at all on this particular message. Had to sign on again, although I don't recall logging out since yesterday. "More things on heaven and Earth," I guess...

yeah, I mentioned the quoting thing earlier. hard to talk about something if you can't talk about it, though!

spyware progs are self-contained to your machine, and shouldn't come into play with something like google ads. google is just scanning the text on this page for relevant words, and placing ads accordingly.

I don't see the ads if I click the "last post" icon on the main page, I only see them if i enter from the category, and click the thread.

I wonder. The only time I've had a Google ad in French (see above) was when I had a French-language page open in another window.
