Well, that sucks. I just caught up on this thread, and had picked out a few posts to reply to, started replying, and my computer whacked out and did something I don't understand and I couldn't get back to where I was. No, I hadn't yet done the swipe and copy thing... so it's all gone and I don't have time to start over. I'll see if I can remember some of what I was saying.

Yep - Once we get this straightened up or in parallel, will have to go through all the accounts we have and beef up as you mentioned. We have had similar issue with a AMEX credit card - but they alerted us and called and checked - we said no not our purchases.

Nice! Like a Reader's Digest condensed version (the young'uns will have no idea what I'm talking about)

That was me on the Brioche - was just following that particular recipe - I have made Brioche quicker as well. I am making the Challah dough recipe - although substituting the vegetable oil with butter. One recipe from Breaking Breads (A New World of Israeli Baking - Uri Scheft). The author says vegetable oil is used as not to serve meat and dairy together (kosher)...But butter he thinks makes it richer and more tender crumb. Says personal choice - I am choosing butter!!!

SD ---------------------- How did you know ????

College Football -

So the CFP should be set? Ohio St, LSU, Clemson, and assume Oklahoma?

Emotional Picks - LSU (as I am an Auburn/SEC guy - and they are tigers), Clemson (as I live in SC and they are tigers!), Ohio St (Since back in the day I did live in Ohio)….leaving Oklahoma 4th (Even though not to be counted out) (sorry SP - I know you live there - but Kansas fan) (double - or triple parenthesis Ma! )

I know folks say Clemson hasn't played anyone - but their QB/receivers are quite good....RB is fantastic.
Plus - Clemson and Auburn have quite a few ties/similarities -

They are Tigers!
The first three coaches in Clemson football history were Auburn graduates.
Both schools have a main administration building on campus that is virtually the same architecture.
Clemson’s Tillman Hall was modeled after Auburn’s Langdon Hall.
Lewis Grizzard used to refer to Clemson as “Auburn with a Lake.”

To name a few - lastly a number of engineers at work went to Clemson.

If LSU and Clemson play first due to rankings

Well, that sucks. I just caught up on this thread, and had picked out a few posts to reply to, started replying, and my computer whacked out and did something I don't understand and I couldn't get back to where I was. No, I hadn't yet done the swipe and copy thing... so it's all gone and I don't have time to start over. I'll see if I can remember some of what I was saying.

I tried posting a pic of Horus for SP, and that's where I started having trouble with the 'puter, so maybe I did something wrong. I'm afraid to try again now. I'll do it later by itself, so I don't end up losing a bunch of typing.

And whoever was saying they don't make brioche because it takes 2 days (I forgot who it was now), you don't have to wait that long. I make it all the time, and I use it right after I make it. If it's still a bit soft, 30 minutes in the fridge will firm it up nicely. I use brioche to make cinnamon rolls, YUM! One thing I've learned about bread is there's a recipe, and then there are the "other" ways you can achieve the same result. Since I'm all about saving time, I do things as quick as possible, and no way does brioche need 12 hours in the fridge. Try it sometime.

Oh, yeah, and I'm up every morning at 3:00 am now that it's winter. I just don't get on the computer right away because I have other duties that need to be done first. Animal stuff, catz and dogz.

What else was I going to say....... oh, I told Rich the pics he was sending me were too small, so he sent me a test one that's bigger. It looks the same to me, on my computer, but when I get up the nerve to try posting the picture of Horus, I'll also post that test picture and see if it works any better.

OK, I guess I forgot all the rest. Gonna go have another cup of coffee now, then I have to go wake up that grumpy bear, Rich, and get ready for morning chores.

OK here is today. @ a glance:

Seeking AJ updates on what actually happened today at noon..

Sorry that has happened to you Moe......the banks take care of so much.......but still it leaves one feeling very violated.
Our bank has saved us several times but each time my heart just pounded so hard!!
Hope things get handled for you quickly.

Ma !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Somebody sent me a Christmas card and on the envelope it has a bad word on it ! YES - On the outside of it ! I bet the girls at the post office are lol

I think it warrants a trip to the woodshed !

Moe, that happened to me about 8 years ago with NewEgg online. Got a couple surprise emails on a Mon morning, saying my Orders Have Been Confirmed at NewEgg! Orders were for expensive cell phones and camera equipment. Luckily payment did not go through since CC on file had old info.

ID thieves had hacked my account password and made the orders. They had changed default shipping address to a place in CA, at an import/export business (like in the B grade crime movies) What hackers had neglected to do was change the account password and email. This would have kept me from accessing, but would have triggered a notification. After that date I upgraded all online passwords with unique, strong ones, changed on regular basis.

Now I use 2-step security on all online accounts, where available. (Text code verification to access in addition to User Name/PW) I don't keep CC info online, especially if 2-step security is not available.

Good morning all!

But maybe not so good a morning for me My wife came in and said she was getting Best Buy receipts coming in her email from Tennessee....$1000's of dollars....so guess we get to make some calls when the world wakes up.

I can't even remember the last time we were in best buy has been years.

Score!

Got a skunk!
