By The Way...

...the reason I haven't updated my website is because I've run into a bit of a snafu (...I just love that word!) with Yahoo!. First of all, there is no Mac version of Yahoo!Sitebuilder. So, I just figured I would switch over to the Mac webhosting and just keep updating on Yahoo! with our PC (yeah...it's still hooked up, but I rarely use it) until I figured out how to use the Mac software.
Right after I did the last website update, I had an on-screen message from Yahoo! that said I needed to go to a website and download their new software. So, I did just that. When I began the download, there was a prompt that said I needed to delete the old software first. So, I did that. I then proceeded with downloading the new software and it just froze. I tried it again, and it wouldn't download. So, I no longer have the old software, and I can't download the new software. My webpage will be stuck on it's current page until I figure out how to transfer my domain name (www.thebigfinn.com) over to my mac.com webpage (which I still have to figure out how to use).
In the meantime, I'll just be updating my blog with pictures. So, please, no "When are you going to update the website?" e-mails. Thanks. You can go directly to my blog without going through my website. The address for my blog is: http://thebigfinn.blogspot.com.
Actually, this brings up an internal struggle that has been brewing within The Big Finn for some time now. Should I actually update a website at all? I could just put pictures into the blog and not bother with posting them on a webpage. Mrs. TBF says the public outcry would be just too great. I say nobody cares one way or the other. What do you think? How about leaving a comment? You don't have to register or leave your e-mail address. Just leave me a comment and tell me what you think? I'd love to hear from you. By the way...thanks go to Kirk and Gretchen and The Dictator Princess for your frequent comments. They are greatly appreciated. Also, thanks to Mrs. TBF, The Medium Swede, and Perry (my brother-in-law), and others for your occasional comments. I'd love to get an idea of how many people are checking out my website and my blog on a regular basis. The blog will definitely continue. The website???? I think I need to feel the love!

This could cause an internet traffic issue for blogger - there will be so many comments/votes from TBF's many fans. My vote stands - I want the website and the blog.
With love,
Mrs. TBF

I am comfortable with just the blog so long as the pics continue. However, before you make this big decision you should consider the additional amount of writing required to write about each pic. I wouldn't want Buddy's walks to get cut short.

I usually just check out the blog and not the website, but that could be because there's a link from our blog so it's just easier. So I guess I would suggest that in the interest of domestic tranquility you might take the easy route and defer to Mrs. TBF...

Continue to update the web-page, it is your only semblance of outside the home responsiblity. I realize that you actually update it within the home but you know what I mean. You erred, I forgive you and therefore.... I AM DIVINE!
