tinyurl is it or is it not safe?

   Posted by: vw bug    in technical

That is the question I have today. I have been doing research on the web while coughing, hacking, sniffling and wondering why I ever try to do anything while dealing with a cold… I signed up for payperpost finally and it wants me to put tinyurl in my template. I’m not sure I want to do that. Any thoughts? Do you think it is safe? Has it ever loaded a virus on your machine? Would you continue to come to my site? Let me know.

More Pictures from my trip to Europe

   Posted by: vw bug    in Mom, pd

Here are some more pictures of my trip to Europe. The first couple are from Kelheim, Germany. Why Kelheim? Because I made some good friends in Germany and that is where she was born and raised. I thought it was great that she took the time to take me to see it.

One of the things I noticed is how much is paid by cash. I had to make sure that I had international credit cards or card. I also had to have a pin number to get cash out of the atm with it. Then you have to be careful on how much money is ‘exchanged’ and if there are charges or not. It didn’t matter whether it was Germany or Italy. Cash was preferred. Here are some pictures I got while visiting Rome:

One of the nice items of working in Germany was the ability to visit other countries. Yep, I took advantage of it. Wonder if I can find my pictures of Finland… I went in January… no one else wanted the job. It was a blast. Cold… but fun!
