2 things.
How do other people post photos - mine just remain a string of http:/// stuff and, Nathair, how do you get google chrome? Sounds just what I need. Word auto corrects my spelling but would love in on here - and does it work when e-mailing, too?
Great riddles by the way!
(I'm spilling into Birmingham partly because not THAT far away and ... following same timetable as you, the big s....e....v...e ...n..t...h .. :shock:

HI Milla, I'm not sure if it would be seen as advertising, so I have sent you a PM.

more riddles
Quick.. before Tracy wakes up...

1. There was an airplane crash, every single person died, but two people survived. How is this possible?

2. A light-tight wooden box has three switches on the outside that control three light bulbs on the inside. When the box is closed you can turn the switches on or off but when you open the box how can you tell which switch controls each bulb without touching the switches?

3. That attorney is my brother, testified the accountant. But the attorney testified he didn't have a brother. Who is lying?

have fun mm2

you've kept my mind off "things" (what things?) wonderfully well. Thank you!

I think the 2 survivors were married (not single) but Q 2 & 3 stumped me!

thanks again for the diversions

Milla - load your photos up to photobucket. Hover you mouse over the photo and a pop up list will appear. Click on the bottom one (it says IMG Code) and then right click you mouse and select 'Copy'.

Come to this website click on the reply button as usual (if you haven't already done so) and then place your mouse in the empty reply box right click on it and the click on paste - you should now have the usual http mark-up showing. Click on Preview (underneath the reply box) and if you can see your photo you know you will have succeeded - if you can only see the http mark-up you have gone wrong somewhere).

WTR the spell checker. Google for Igoogle and then go to gadgets to add to your toolbar. You will need to click on your ABC checker each time you respond to a thread, it won't do it for you automatically.

MM2 - Turn one light switch on and then turn it off after a short while. Wait a little bit. Turn a different light switch on and then turn it off after a short while. Don't turn the third light switch on. When you open the box you'll have one hot bulb, one warm bulb and one cold bulb, thus you can allocate a light switch to a bulb.

Neither is lying! The accountant is female, the attorney doesn't have a brother, he has a sister!
