Long overdue

A while back, I had a delightful dining experience, which is hard to get in this miserable town. I meant to write a review quite some time ago; however, the stresses of searching for a good host for my website, finding one, transferring my website (page at a time), finding out that said host is junk, having to look for a new one, then having to rewrite my website because of my own short-sightedness etc. you get the idea..so here is the long overdue review of my experience at the "Java Hut"

The Java Hut is a coffee shop in my town that is near to the courthouse which I had business at that particular day. Since I was wearing a nice skirt and whatnot, of course, it decided to start pouring rain. As I was cold and wet, I ducked into this place thinking "please have hot chocolate." I had never been in this place (coffee=barf) so I asked the patron what he recommended..I swear he spent 10 minutes telling me about various things and giving recommendations and being just delightfully conversant. I ended up ordering a croissant and hot chocolate. I swear that was the lightest, fluffiest croissant I have ever had in my life..*drools in remembrance*..and the hot chocolate was rich and full of chocolatey goodness. I sat right there in the front window, which is great because I am a window looker and had a quaint little table that would have been right at home in a French street cafe.

All in all, I give the Java Hut in Danville, Illinois an A for the food and an A+ for the customer service. I hope they stay in business for years to come.

Photobucket Sucks

This is going to be a 'Douche of the Day' award post that I usually do on my Wordpress blog . I was a happy Photobucket user for 11 years.  That's a long time to stick with a service so they were obviously a good one.  I was completely happy with the services provided on my free account and a couple of times, I made use of the print store in order to make custom gifts for loved ones for various occasions. Then all of a sudden, in 2017, they start sending me nagware. For those unfamiliar, nagware consists of popups/emails/messages etc that 'nag' you to buy their product. It's irritating, true, but not a deal breaker since I had a free account.  I just unsubscribed to the nagmails and just put up with it on the site. Then, however, Photobucket decided to do something I consider to be truly despicable. They made it to where you CANNOT download your photo albums (for backup or for account changes).  They actually REMOVED the download album links.  Why is that p...

Favorite File Manager for Windows 7

Most people that use Windows tend to just use Windows Explorer as their file manager. A vast number of people likely don't even realize that there are other options.  Windows Explorer is painfully limited in features, especially lacking the tabs that 95% of file managers utilize.  In my line of work, I have to compare, browse, edit, move, delete and rename vast numbers of files.  Windows Explorer just can't handle the task. I ended up using FreeCommander file manager, which had all the features I was looking for with extensive customization options for the user interface and a built in viewer that could be used inside the window I was working on.  That was actually the most difficult feature to find as I discovered later. After a while though, I became very frustrated with FreeCommander's 32 bit free version.  It became slow and often froze.  So I decided to comparison shop, so to speak.  My requirements were few but necessary: I had to be able to c...
