Two things that are still not working with Firefox:

1) Even though I have the cache set to zero, I still have to force
reload a page to see changes made in it. Supposedly, Firefox, any
browser I would think, should compare the page to the cached copy and
if there is a difference, it would load the new page. Well, that
isn't happening even with no cache!

2) It still freezes often enough after a period of inactivity, so
that I can't write in a field on a page or in the address box (for
URLs). Very annoying. I have to either create a new page or restart
Firefox.

These two problems have occurred with previous versions of Firefox. I
am using 1.5.0.7 for Mac now, started with a pre-1.0 version. I'm
not sure when these troubles started.

As I was eating breakfast I saw some wild turkey's ambling about.
Overall I counted 15! (I count 11 in this pic). All seemed to be
adult and healthy. It's been a year practically to the day since I last saw some!
Then as I was watching them, I noticed a hairy or downy woodpecker checking
out the eastern bluebird birdhouse! Peeking in, again and again. Maybe he/she will make that its home. Haven't seen any activity by the birdhouse since July I guess. (Some song sparrows were using it then.)

And then a little later, I notice a caramel and white cat moving
through the woods next door. I picked up my cat to show her, which
she protested loudly about, squirming like crazy to get away, but she
didn't see it. An animal day today!

Went to the Arts and Crafts and Blues on Bedford concerts in
Stamford yesterday and today. Saw Lil Brian and the Zydeco Twisters,
Walter "Wofman" Washington, and Dr John Saturday, Bonerama, Syreeta
Neal and (I forget the name of her backup band), and Sonny Landreth
and the Goners Sunday, all playing what I'll call New Orleans music
although some are based elsewhere (but I think all are from LA). It
was pretty good. A bit disappointing actually compared to what I've
heard (many of them) do before but since I hadn't heard some of them
in a long time, Bonerama and Sonny Landreth are two New Orleans music
favorites of mine, it certainly was good to hear this kind of music again.

Here are some pics from Sunday.

Bonerama (4 trombones, I sousaphone, 1 electric guitar and 1 drummer)

Craig Klein and Mark Mullins

They played lots of rock (cover tunes and favoring a rock beat rather
than a New Orleans second line beat) which I see according to their
website, is how they bill themselves,

Syreeta Neal. Kenny Neal was originally scheduled as the main act for
that slot, with Syreeta as a guest. Her guitar was a little off key
which she realized a little too late but she was sweet, fun and a good
singer.

Sonny Landreth with an amazing drummer (who looked like Alan Caulter from the David Letterman show and who would twirl one stick in the air as
he was playing!) Lots of real hard slide guitar.

All were loud and good. And all of this was free!
