Kate, do something please, luv miri It's just spam. Killfile and move on. There's nothing that anyone can do, really, since this group isn't moderated and anyone can just pop in and out - spammers included! Killfile/block address/ignore is the best way to avoid some of it. Other than that, it's hard. It's also everywhere! |

Kate, do something please, luv miri I report them but I can't stop them. They don't use the same email address each time. The best thing you can do for yourself is to find a news reader that filters. Free Agent is one that works well with windows and will filter cross posts and give you the ability to kill file/plonk annoying people and/or subjects. There use to be rules and respect for others. I haven't seen a lot of that lately. Not here. Not anywhere, really. People holler about their rights. They think they can do whatever they want and say whatever they want. "It's the internet" Whatever. Anyway.. I think I'll post the FAQ. Hugs, 'k HAPPY EASTER EVERYBODY ! Thanks Kate I havnt read the faq since last year so its good to go over it again. It got a bit scary in this NG there seemed to be more ads than posts. I know money is sometimes difficult to find if you're raising a family alone, and if someone hasnt time to find a new partner to advertise in the only way they know how, but is it worth the risk to your kids ? Talking of scary I recieved some very important junk mail into my spam tray last week, scary due to its reference to research for the development of a drug which would on the surface looks good, but reads simply more like plain interference in the natural biologicals between mom+baby. If we havnt had enough upheavals with our relationships between moms and dads, theres even more poking and prodding and nosiness going on to interrup bonding between parents and their newborns and yet-to-be borns. I don't know what its like in the US, but last year there was a big issue about giving children up to 18 (yes thats eighteen) jabs, only a fortnight ago there was something about testing children of nursery school age which seems to me more like setting exams for kids who havnt even reached primary schools, can you believe it ! Its bad enough having exam nerves at 16 The sun is shining out there and we're stuffing ourselves with easter eggs, maybe we'll save the foils and collage later. The children remind me that tomorrow is Easter too, and will there be any more eggs then? I bought a bag of small ones to hide under the hedge and around the place so I'll do that tomorrow. I boiled a few yesterday to paint up for tea tonight, it'll be nice to have a little party for us....(chocolate for brekkies, chocolate for lunch, with chocolate snacks inbetween and boiled eggs for tea, Ugh!) I want to tell them a few stories about Easter (when I can unglue them from the TV) Theres supposed to be traditions in some parts of the world about what to paint on the eggs and what the patterns and colors meant. HAPPY EASTER miri |

Ukrainian eggs are like that. It's fascinating to watch them being colored... they block with wax so that the color only permeates the unwaxed part. Oh! We do those... For the last 23 years of my life, anyways... I actually remember doing them for probably 18 years, and I still can't do a straight line. My mom is alright at doing them. She takes her time and wiggly lines galore, but it still looks pretty nice. Me, I do the same thing over and over. My grandma used to do them fantastically (an old Ukrainian lady) but over the years, major arthritis has taken over and her hands just can't do them. She'd much rather watch us (and me struggle) to do them. N and I still have unfinished eggs that we started a couple weeks ago sitting at my mom's house... I get bored and frustrated way too easily with them |

I get bored and frustrated way too easily with them I've never done one and I am part Uke too. You're so lucky to have someone to watch do them even if you don't. I don't think I could do those straight lines or match the designs as well as some of the examples on the 'Net. They're amazing! 'K- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Now arnt these absolutely GORGEOUS !! http://www.umacleveland.org/pysanky.htm and something about what the symbols mean http://www.smokylake.com/history/culture/eastereggs.htm I love these I really do, they remind me of the very old decorations we often get on the beams in houses hundreds of years old (if some idiot hasnt painted them out or replaced the beams) OOOOh! I love them thanks ! luv miri |
