RENOs… accelerated pace!

OK,
Finding out that Dad is coming to town lit a bit of a fire under my butt. Today I managed to get further with the TV mount installation.
I placed another 2×4 on the mid-right side to give more area to attach the subsequent drywall that I put up. Finally, I cutout the drywall and installed the mount. I’m really happy with the end product and think it probably went as smoothly as I might have expected. The mount is level and flush, and feels rock solid. I’ve got no doubts about how strong the whole thing is.
The really nice thing about this mount is the fact that it can extend far enough away from the wall to make connecting things easy, yet is very solid and the gutts retract back into the wall, keeping an overall profile that is very tight to the wall. I can certainly say that I’ve spent many a moments simply admiring my work. Not because it’s better than anybody else’s necessarily (I’m sure others have done far better and far more quickly) but because I did it for myself.
Here’s one happy camper! With any luck, my friend Duffy will come over tomorrow sometime and help me lift the TV onto that thing. A Pioneer 5010 is not a cheap piece of technology, and I really don’t want to see that coming down!

Tell Duffy I said hi.
…oh, we some 54 inch SamsLung plas.TVs going real cheap! $999.99. LOL
This is weird, I can’t edit on your blog? Getting PHP errors? BOO for Micro-Soft and EI-6! Oh Well.

Now I can post on your blog. That stupid Windows machine keeps calling up a PHP5 errors when I try to go back and change my text and re-edit it. At least your web site is Linux friendly, LOL!
Anyway, what I met to say was, we have those 54 inch plasma TVs at the warehouse going really cheep: $999.00 per unit. I think you can guess what happened there. Anyway, if you need a TV for the kitchen or patio.
Have a great weekend!
FYI Right click works on Linux.

Hmmm, wonder if it has anything to do with the ANTI SPAM plugin?

I think the problem is in either your page layout, the CSS is not setting up your page correctly for Internet Explorer, or your comment sheet has a bad line in it. It could be a plugin related issues too, but for whatever reason, as soon as I enter text, the comment field wants to insert the text instead, making back space impossible.
Fire Fox seems to be OK, but if you have the Flash Anti Spam banner, Spell Check, and Quick tags plugins on, you only have one shot at entering text: without the option of deleting it, or modifying it in the comment area.
Chrome, forget it. Hard to tell which has all the bugs in it. But I have to give Google credit here, it at least reads out the errors for you.
IE6, I think could be caused from your right click plugin: editing/inputting new text lines over or in between current lines does not work.
I’ve looked at your wp-comment.php file and the only thing that seems to wrong that I can tell is the “wp-on key( )” is set to null, which could be due to your right-key plugin?
For Window$ MS users, changing the hot-keys configuration is a work around, but for only one web site, hardly worth the effort.
The only thing I haven’t done to it used a MAC. LOL!
