Dangerous Dave

Martin T was talking about David at St Marks this morning. You can read the story in 1 Samuel 22. For part of David’s career at least, it was dangerous to be his mate. You wouldn’t be popular with the mainstream, and you might even wind up dead. Likewise, if you are a friend of Jesus, you are not going to be terribly popular, and in some times and places you might get badly hurt or even killed. David said ” Stay with me: do not be afraid, for he who seeks my life, seeks your life. With me you shall be in safekeeping” (I Sam. 22.23). Jesus says much the same to his followers.

Beta Blogger and browsers

This from the Blogger folks:

“Blogger Updates
Browser compatibility. The current version of the beta works best in Firefox and Internet Explorer. We are working to resolve issues with other browsers, specifically Safari.”

Alas, I seem to like what is least acceptable. I like Opera best in Windows world, followed by FireFox, then Internet Explorer.

Meanwhile in Mac world, I mainly use Safari, and sometimes Opera – and briefly had FireFox loaded on the machine, but then gave it the flick. I only had access to the option of switching to beta Blogger while using Firefox.

FireFox is very good, but…

I briefly loaded Thunderbird this arvo as well, though I am pretty much committed to Apple Mail on this iMac. (At work I suffer LotusNotes). Thunderbird didn’t last long: it doesn’t seem to have specific import tools relating to Apple Mail settings/mail, nor to Address Book…(but it does have specific settings for Eudora). ‘What a crock”, I thought, and consigned T-bird to trash.

SuperFrog meets SuperKraut

Friends’ new Peugeot 407 2.7 L V6 HDI meets a nice BMW R1200GS Adventure. Both nice vehicles. 🙂
