Computer questions / Problem with Firefox NOT RESPONDING.... ?

« on: April 03, 2014, 08:44:07 am »

As of the last 3 days every once in a while either from F.B. or Yahoo when I start to type THE BLUISH SPINNING CIRCLE (waiting thing) pops up and I CAN NOT DO ANYTHING! 

I have X out and restarted and MOST TIMES all works properly, but then again this problem will present itself. 

I HAVE ....RESTARTED THE PC....  Same thing happens at random times.

Hope someone out there can tell me what is making this happen and How to FIX it.

Always when the occurs I look up at the Firefox on the top and it will always say
              FIREFOX NOT RESPONDING.    Help....  Danny  :+}

General Scroll Saw Talk / Printing Steve's Patterns.... :+}

« on: March 21, 2014, 12:56:14 pm »

This subject has been on here before.
I am pretty sure before (not sure how long ago) when I brought up a pattern from Steves Pattern Vault I was able to Print from that.  Still can, but it prints exactly like Steve shows it.  Light Gray with No cut lines.  I have found by DOWNLOADING the pattern I can open it and be able to Print with the Cut Lines.  Not a big problem, but was just wondering or asking for an answer why this is?  Thanks....  Danny  :+}

The Coffee Shop / MOSQUITO TRAP.... :+}

« on: March 11, 2014, 10:59:08 am »

HOMEMADE MOSQUITO TRAP:
Items needed:
1 cup of water
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1 gram of yeast
1 2-liter bottle

HOW:
1. Cut the plastic bottle in half.
2. Mix brown sugar with hot water. Let cool. When cold, pour in the bottom half of the bottle.
3. Add the yeast. No need to mix. It creates carbon dioxide, which attracts mosquitoes.
4. Place the funnel part, upside down, into the other half of the bottle, taping them together if desired.
5. Wrap the bottle with something black, leaving the top uncovered, and place it outside in an area away from your normal gathering area. (Mosquitoes are also drawn to the color black.)

Change the solution every 2 weeks for continuous control.

Have a 2 year old CANON MX432 printer.
Printing from the PC it will print Normal....Many times FASTER than
if I just want to COPY something.  Like it seems to take FOREVER for
it to FINISH printing.  Maybe I clicked on the wrong thing. 

Is there a answer in maybe the SETTINGS?  Help..................Danny  :+(

General Scroll Saw Talk / Up-Date on NOT USING PAINTERS TAPE.... :+}

« on: February 21, 2014, 02:11:29 pm »

Was just reading and re-reading the posts and ran across the one I put about painters tape and decided to say a thing or three....  It has been so long since I used Painters tape it seems strange just to think about all them Years I did use it.  And also sometimes the frustrations of peeling off the tape with the pattern after all was cut.  Or (don't miss this) using Spirits to dissolve the tapes glue stick-um.  Way to messy for me.  And some places having the tape take bits n pieces of the wood with it upon removal.  Nah! I stick with STICKY BACK STOCK.  I would guess I have Successfully cut over 4 dozen different patterns with 100% success.  Yea!
             Anyway just another 13 cents worth................Danny  :+}
