Slow Site Possible Fixes?

I don't have the same problems that others of you have connecting to this site or writing blogs and getting them to post, etc.  They post - it just takes longer than I would like, but I don't lose them.   What I have a problem with is just going to particular people's pages who have a gigunda amount of photos, implanted videos, music, etc.  That makes my computer just become a snail and then hang.   What helps in one instance is I have an ad block on which prevents a lot of the junk from coming through.  But my problem has been of late that I have Adobe flash crashes (and what a world we live in that that would make sense to anybody out there.  Just my personal comment on our modern techy world which personally I think  - well never mind.)  Anyway, when I start my browser   (what is that - a dog with big eyebrows?)  in "safe mode" all indeed seems to be faster and I don't know about safer but FASTER IS GOOD in my world.  So...I'm suggesting that whatever your doggie browser  may be, find out how to start it in it's own "safe mode" (I'm in Firefox) without all the added extensions, ad-ons, and junk, and perhaps that may help you.  If it doesn't, well, find another dog to take you to your leader. ....

But just - don't smoke over it - OK?  'Cause ain't nothin' worth that.  And smoking won't solve nothin'.  Well except your addictive craving for  cigarette.  And that's what you're trying to break - right?!!!!

Member since MAY 2008. I quit smoking March 1, 2006. I smoked a pack and a half a day for about 35 years. What did it take to get me smoke free? Perseverance, a promise not to smoke, and a willingness to be uncomfortable for as long as it took to get me to where I am today. I am an Ex but I have not forgotten the initial difficult journey of this rite of passage. That's one of the things that's keeping me proudly smoke free. I don't want to ever have another Day 1 again. You too can achieve your goal of being finally free forever. Change your mind, change your habits, alter your focus, release the myths you hold about smoking. And above all - keep your sense of hewmer. DAY WON - NEVER ANOTHER DAY ONE. If you still want one - you're still vulnerable. Protect your quit!
