Thanks for responding!

Ms. Halverson - your book SUCCEED is outstanding! It's so good I almost don't want other people to know about it. I read it a few months ago, and just took it off the shelf again to reread parts of it.

You're talking about built in shortcuts - there are many, but you can also easily set tons of your own shortcuts by going into Tools, Customize Keyboard.

Yes! I'm a writer and I can't stand it when I see other writers who don't know the first thing about using Word.

Goal for you while still in school: Read Hemingway. Learn to write less. Clearly you're a bright, curious, thoughtful student with good ideas. And you'll be even more successful at sharing them if you can do so more succinctly.

:) erm... slather...

Good idea in theory, but in practice not there yet as can't tell which pix are all for the same place so you waste a bunch of time. And they're the same pix from Craigs List. On CL you have to click through to pix, but here you click on 10 pix and they're all for the same apartment.

Agreed + I have grandfathered unlimited data. Yay T-Mo!

The truth is, emotional intelligence - qualities such as empathy and positivity - are extremely valuable skills worth mastering. I just read Charles Duhigg's book "The Power Of Habit" and he spends time on the civilizing influence of Starbucks training - how it builds good habits and emotional intelligence,a s does…

Thanks! I use Safari... Firefox was getting so slow and Chrome never felt right... but I love LH so much I might have to try switch so I can use it.
