Today I repaired my Braun foil-style electric razor. Two bits of
plastic about 5 mm square broke off when I dropped it earlier. Like
fins, they press against springs that move hooks that engage the cover
that holds the foil.

I cleaned all the areas and parts and got the Gorilla Glue out of the
fridge. I applied just a little to each fin and used tweezers to
transfer the glue to the mating areas. I breathed on each to begin the
"kick" and poked and prodded while the glue got hard. Finally, they
stood proud and square, so I put the assembly in the toaster oven to
cure more quickly.

You guessed it; I melted my Braun.

Does anybody know a good photo site?

The free photo handling program that you download is rather good, is
quite versitile and they give you literally gigabytes of storage space.

Its a Google side feature..so its quite reliable and open source.

The more you present a leftist with factual evidence

losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

Only one gig. If you want more, you must pay:

I have a matrix of half a dozen PCs, IE6, 7 and Firefox, two low-cost
dialup ISPs and part-time WiFi, so I minimize the software, just type
in a phone number and dial. For Picasa I use the Basic Uploader which
doesn't need any download, similarly Yahoo for mail, Google Groups for
reading and posting.

Before uploading photos I crop them and reduce the resolution to
100DPI.

They do not force you to register to host photos. Can sometimes be a little
slow.

Registration required, but a little faster and better organized.

If its about fishing in Ariozna, you don't mind waiting for photos to be
authorized, and understand that the guy running it is a real prick. (LOL)

Is that related to the mass hallucination I hear about people claiming
frozen water falls from the sky?

Yeah, but a gig is a lot. Even if you upload full size pictures at 400-500K
that's well over 2000 pictures. I worried about storage space when I setup
my web forums and allowed built in picture hosting until I did the math.
The gallery doesn't even get used anymore. Users just upload and plug their
photos right into the forums.

A gig of 800x1200 or smaller res pictures is a LOT of pictures. And one
can then use Flickr etc etc
