Has some un-requested adblocker been added with 5? All of a sudden many of the major TV stations are claiming to have been blocked by an ad blocker, which is news to me!! I only have a couple sleezy ones blocked, and even halo takes no issure with them. Neither has said network in the past... this one being CBS. So what's up?

Sweet tooth anyone? I could open a bakery!! Unfortunately for those with an actual craving for chocolate chips, you're just going to have to phantasize over the cooking .com (and that's just one...) kind of cookies (that were) phloating around in my computer!! The pun was inescapable, but thank you for your time!! I only did part of it... there were so many strings of "how to " options I decided to hold out for my computer whizz buddy. I have a cup for him: "Word's Greatest Computer Whizz". I can't wait to give it to him! I'd love to send you guys each one but even in the close out one buck pricing I couldn't afford it! You're Terrif!! Muchos Grazziosos, Rachel
