OK, so I'm just a dumbass

Woohoo. it posted. and apparently saved all of my previous attempts.
I'm a dufus and unashamed of it, so I'll leave 'em there. apparently my "tab around until it appears to accept the changes to this page" method didn't quite work after all.

Yes, no maybe?

I am unfond of iMacs. Everyone knows that Windoze blows chunks. Even dedicated Win users will occasionally admit such a thing. I started up this blog for the sole purpose of leaving a comment on a comic. It promised to "take 2 minutes!" Hah! --Possibly-- this is an oversight on Blogger's part, but I couldn't even find the buttons to get to the next page of the creation/setup. I finally just started hitting Tab until I couldn't see what my cursor was on. That apparently clicked on the invisible next button. By the time I got this all accomplished, I couldn't get back to the comic to leave the comment, and I had wasted the final 15 minutes of my lunch break. Bleh.
How can people live with one mouse button and no scroller? And I couldn't check my gmail. And I'm a big fat whiner. ;-)

I first named this "third time's a charm" because I tried it twice on the iMac at lunch. Now I'm at home on my happy Opera/Linux setup..... this is attempt 4.

Third Time's a Charm?

Now everyone knows that Windows blows chunks, but man iMacs are no good for much of anything I do online. Blech. one mouse button and no access to GMail??
All this to try to post a comment to Jeff Rowland's Overcompensating. something in November (9?) about a man and a gun. Very funny. but can I comment on it, even now that I have a Blogger blog? Nope. Because apparently iMacs in student computer labs blow even more chunks than Windows. blargh.
