  1. None of this makes sense to me...but the good thing is it doesn't have to. I will do that step by step, and let you know. Ciels- Michele Edit: Something is happening....just what I don't really know....there's a blue circle on a white page....again, nothing burning or exploding, so, well, we shall see....but my puter just got rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllly s l o w . . . . so I think maybe it's working. Dave, any way to check to see if something is coming in? ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  2. When I click into the upload folder....it's blank except it gives a click to a higher directory. So I clicked, and it doesn't go to the upload thing. Eyiiiiiiiyaiiiiiiiiiiyaiiiiiiiiiiiii! I am so lost.... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  3. Dave - good to see you here. I have no idea. Help me upload this thing....please? I can't seem to get to the right screen to do it. Ciels- Michele Ps...if necessary, I can take it to the office and do it there, but that won't be until tomorrow...and I'd have to go through the whole mishegoss to get it saved again... ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  4. Help....it won't let me go to the uploads section, so 20 hours doesn't matter. 20 hours? really? I have a connection which says the speed right now is 52.0 kbps...dunno if that's good, bad or indifferent... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  5. the site won't let me in??? ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  6. the Pinks part was to show support for JFTC....maybe I should put it back in even though we aren't doing it again until next year....hrm.... O.K., I'll try to send it to skydivingmovies.com. OR shoudl I try the new one Leroy put up, the mirror site? Any idea how long it will take on a dial-up? Ceils (and pinks...)- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  7. 135,287 kb. Running time is 8:24 That's pretty big, right? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  8. O.K., I've managed, with the patience of you computer saints, to get it downloaded and saved onto my computer. Now what? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  9. yes, you asked me to explore....but explore what? And I am right clicking (although it's good of you to check....it's me after all. I am saving it again with the Real Media thingy rather than quicktime, because it kept yelling at me about quicktime. And it plays on the media thingy just fine. Oy. ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  10. Wait......wait.....something's happening. Dunno what, but there's no smoke or explosions, so maybe this is o.k....it seems to be copying to my documents file.... ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  11. Juan, I'm with you all the way up to the copy part. I right click, and get that bar thing. And then I click copy....and nothing. Nada. Zip. ?????????? I so want to share this with everyone!!! ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  12. I can find it in drive F; however, when I click on it to open the movie, it tells me there's a software component missing??? So I must've done something wrong.... Ack... ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  13. I can watch it just fine on the media thing on my machine. I have no idea of the rest of your questions...told ya I'm illiterate. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  14. I've got it on a cd...and no idea what to do with it now. How do I get it over to my own machine so I can send it to another one? Or is that not how it works? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  15. Hi, all, your favorite computer illiterate here. I just received Rob Tonnesen's Memorial Ash Dive cd - 8:24 long, absolutely brilliant work by Lief the editor. I want to load it up so you all can see it...but I have no clue how to do it. I can watch it, but can't figure out how to do the rest. Can someone, using the "is the machine plugged in" method of instruction, help me out? I'd really love to get this up so that you guys can see a father releasing his son, and be touched by the magic that was that day...please? I'm begging here. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  16. If you pm me your commander's name and number, I will be more than happy to call him tomorrow and explain my actions. I really feel badly that this caused so much upset for you...I am sorry. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  17. Clint, I called the Pueblo Sherrif's department and asked them to do a welfare check. I pm'd someone earlier this evening, and told them that I would welcome your anger and beg your forgiveness if I overstepped my bounds, because that it would mean you were alive to be angry and to ask forgiveness from. Please understand where I was coming from, and that I would do it again if I felt the circumstances warranted. There was no way for any of us to know it was a joke. Further, the lady I spoke with in the dispatcher's office asked me why I thought you were despondent and potentially suicidal, and I pointed them to this particular post. Should you, Clint, find you are not able to forgive me, I shall accept that and understand that. But I would also ask that you consider I did not know it was a joke, and that I don't care to sit by and not do everything I can to help someone who may need it. I do heartily apologize.

    Pie

    She is gorgeous. I wonder what she'll look like full grown. The vet thinks she will be good sized...and that she's underweight right now. I told him it was because she is always bouncing around, like Tigger. Me too. So many laughs in the last few weeks, just watching her learn how to handle her environment. Yes, SneakingUp2 is definitely demonic...I was laughing so hard that I missed the rest of the "fight"... I printed it up and hung it in the lunchroom at work, and everyone is commenting on it. Some have said that's greeting card material! LOL...something like "when life sneaks up and attack" kinda card. She is a cutie, and definitely a love. And although it is somewhat bittersweet, because I still miss BK so very much, it's great to have a baby around the house. You all will note, however, that Charlotte is not in any of the pix. She's still considering her opinion about the wee one. And yes, Esse is a saint and a very very gentle cat...even those shots of her on top of Pie were done with no claws displayed, and without a doubt playing. Thanks for looking!

    Dogs vs. Cats

    I didn't vote - either/both is my option. The issue for me is my weird work hours, and small home with no yard. Very unfair to a dog, although cats adapt well. Whichever it is for you, I hope all are loved and shower you with love in return. It's what they do best, you know? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

    Pie

    Pie. Not 100th jump pie...but Pumpkin Pie, who is now generally referred to as Pie. My kitten. After two weeks solid of hiding behind the entertainment center, and after two weeks' worth of me laying on the floor, reaching under, and stroking the tip of her tail with the tip of my finger (that was often all I could reach...), she decided it might be safe to come out and see what the house looked like during the day. It was literally a night-and-day difference...she was hiding, and now she is not hiding. No tentative, cautious creeping and wondering....just blammo, into the full swing of things... I had forgotten what having a kitten is like. The energy. The exhuberance. The attacks. Pie is a sweetheart, when she's sleeping. Other than that, she is a holy terror. She leaps of whatever she has climbed on top of down onto whatever is passing below - me, the other cats, dust, shadows. Doesn't matter. Or, she hides under the Papasan chair, and attacks ankles, paws, shoes, the carpet. What's amazing is how quiet she is just before she attacks. It is not usually quiet after the attack has been launched, but that's to be expected. Except in the middle of the night. Then, the yowls have me on my feet and moving before I know what I am responding to...the cats have not drawn each other's blood - only mine... As I write this, she is cuddled on the back of my neck, between me and the chair back, purring loudly. She tends to reach up and clasp my face between her front paws and then bite my lips or my nose...so any time she's behind me, it's good. She also thinks that my earlobes are a good substitute for a mama cat's nipple...except she gets frustrated that nothing can be sucked out of it. Then she starts to chew...nibble..claw... And I had forgotten as well that everything in existence - socks, shoes, laundry baskets, trashcans, boxes, whatever - are now toys for her. She's taken to trying to catch the news scroll thing on the bottom of the TV screen...and has actually leapt at the TV screen...and then falls over. She is a klutz... How is it that a 5.2 pound kitten can, without moving a muscle, literally leap from one side of the bed across two other cats and the quilt, and land on my head? How is it that she can dominate the household like she does? And how did she make it into my heart so fast??? Here's some new photos of her... "Attack" "Defend" are before and afters of her deciding Esse was an appropriate target. "Sneaking up," "Sneaking Up 2," and "Tired after Sneaking up" are self-explanatory. Enjoy!

  22. Katie, I am soooooooooooo thrilled you're home. Welcome back, girl!!! hugs!! Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
  23. At 40 jumps, I learned how to fly my canopy by taking a canopy control class...and the fear was greatly reduced then. But it wasn't until about jump 65 that I landed, and realized I hadn't been fearful at all...tense, anxious, yes, but not fearful. Of course, some DZ.commers conspired to make sure pretty much everything went wrong with me in one day (aside from a mal...)...ie a rodeo and fruitloop (unexpected) in one jump, getting funneled at 6.2K when we were supposed to break at 5.5...and getting sucked low on the last jump (I pull at 4.5, and I pulled under 3 that time...)...Airweenie was my nickname until that day...and it left because of those jumps. I learned that I could handle stuff like that...which had been a great concern...and that I could manage to deal with whatever was going wrong. That was the boost I needed.

  24. Here's what I wrote about my first solo. My altimeter broke.... Enjoy! (BTW, I started having "fun" after about 30 more jumps.......that's when I took the canopy control class and learned how to fly my canopy....)

  25. 97, bright, hot, and definitely not fall. I know there will be people waiting to lynch me for this, but I wish we'd get some of that rain...especially a week from Wednesday evening, so I can listen to it as I lay in bed...hey, Jan, send some down this way!
