Its a few back and a bit of a different world back then I keep alive. I get pop ups when I surf "it would be so nice if you could upgrade your this or that". So its a moot point as to what is going on. Will be upgrading my system very soon. The browser will be upgrade automatically. A few weeks later when I get the hang of it I'll go from the Leopard who loves the snow to the Lion who is not so hot on the mountains. Valley Lion. And then to the one who loves the mountain. I'm I'm totally into cats. As soon as all my kitties are settled in I 'd go to the just out then Mavericks. Which is no feline I've ever heard of. Turns out Mavericks is a California surfing location named after a guys dog. A German Sheppard. I'm a dog lover. German Sheppard's in particular. But Wild Cats is an act no dog would want to follow. Would I go Beagle when I could go Puma? Would I go Bull Terrier when I could go Cheetah? Would I go Dachshund when I could go Ocelot? Dogs are friendly and obedient but they live because their kitty friends let them live.
