- When I’m trying to order from this Web site, what do I need to know about PayPal?
- As of February 21, 2006, my shopping cart seems to be working.

Photography
- Bud, what do you think of digital photography?

So far, I’m sorry, but I must say frankly, my dear, I much prefer the old way. Kodachrome and Tri-X, those are the media I liked best. I will say, though, I don’t miss the stink of darkroom chemicals. I love tinkering with photos on a computer monitor.

I like them both. Very much.

Odds & Ends
- Bud, can you recommend a good something or other?
