Pub 2003 Web Site Size again.

[JoAnn Paules]

Let's talk web first then kitties

ALthough it's daunting, you know as well as I do that it's time to change
programs. I know, that sucks, but so do a lot of things in life. I'm
spoiled. I've had FrontPage from the beginning because I honestly didn't
know (at that time) that I could have used Publisher to create a site.
Sometimes ignorance is a VERY good thing.

I've never tried to convert a Publlisher site to FrontPage so I haven't the
slightest idea just how big the job is. I visited your site once - big site.

And now for the off-topic stuff. Topaz was a resident of the local SPCA. I
adopted her when she was about 6 to 8 months old. She'd just had a litter
but I don't know what became of her babies. It makes me said to think of her
losing her kittens. She's now a little over 3 years old and spoiled rotten.
She's the alpha female in this house and she knows it. Sh'e the typical
jealous red-haired (tabby) woman. ;-) She scared the bejeebers out of me on
Monday. I was out filling my bird feeders off of the deck. It's about an 8
ft + drop to the ground. I knew she came out on the deck with me. She likes
to wait until we aren't looking and then slips thru the railing and walks
the edge of the deck. Well, I glanced over at her just in time to see her
land in the yard below. I yelped and made a mad dash back inside yelling for
Keith. I ran around the house and found her in the same spot where she
landed. Normally if she escapes outside, she runs for the neighbors - not
this day. She doesn't seem to be hurt but I think it rattled her a bit.

Phil, short for Phileas Fogg, is a grey tabby. He's almost two years old now
but still thinks he's the little kitten he was when we adopted him. He was
only about 8 weeks old and as soft as a bunny. Now he's a tad bit bigger
than Topaz but defers to her at almost every turn. He's very loveable - when
he wants it - and enjoys watching the birds outside at my feeders. What Phil
doesn't like is other people and noise. The doorbell scared the hell out of
him. And you don't want to scare him - he tends to have a flatulence
problem. PHEW!!!

Okay, enough rambling about my babies...........back to my newsletter's
mailing list.


I'm glad you guys can try to make some peace. How can we get nations to do
the same?

Our two house cats do not go outside either. The Yumpster used to sneak out
from time to time, but finally lost interest in it (she is 8 years old now).
Peanut does not try to go out; she was born to one of the normally outside cats
named Wuzzie a/k/a Wuzzette on the front porch, and thinks the front porch is
the edge of the world. She is only about 6 months old, and will stand looking
out the storm door like, "whoa, wut's that about out there?" She sleeps under
the sheets with us every night.

I can't get over the notion that this problem is not of my making. I relied on
representations made by M$ as to the suitability of Publisher for the website I
created with it. Further, the ability to use the same material for hard copy
presentations is a highly desirable feature. If there is ultimately no choice
but to move the site to Front Page (if M$ continues on the present illogical
path with Publisher and the bloated code problem), then I expect a relatively
painless way to do it. I tried once before to migrate to Front Page 2002, and
it was a nightmare. So much so, that the case got escalated twice, and
ultimately M$ gave my money back and a bunch of additional presents. That does
not solve my problem, however, and the escalation team promised an eventual
solution to the problems. And so I wait for a way to solve this problem that
will not require scores and scores of hours tediously fixing 300 pages of
material (some VERY long). And that is my story, and I'm sticking to it...
