Yes, Macca, the Forum is changing -- keeps you on your toes, doesn't it?  :D  Hope it's not too unsettling -- I asked our Web designer if he could change the order of the comments on the Forum so that the most recent comments appear first, instead of having to click through to the end to see them.  That's normally the way it is on blog sites, which makes sense to me.  Make sense to you?

Oh, Patti!  Methinks what you are saying makes logical sense; however, the Forum isn't responding that way...perhaps it is still in...er, transition???  And no, it wasn't from my having too many brewskis, either.

Clicking on a topic currently directs you to the oldest, not newest, posting.  (If this is a keyboard dexterity test, I have flunked miserably). I figure you are just teasing us...or me. 

Pass me another brewski, please...

 

 Ok, I see that Firecracker Scott is diligently on the repair trail.  I rescind my previous concerns, and all is well in Oak Ridge.

Dexterity test, huh??? Good one! If this had happened last week we would've all sworn it was an April Fool's Joke!

RIGHT!

Well, being as it is 10:38 AM here, I suppose that it WAS meant figuratively.  I DO have my standards...gulp.

WELCOME TO THE FORUM LITTLE PHILLY!!!



Glad to have you on board!  Feel free to jump in on any of the forums... If you want a giggle, be sure to visit the Much Ado About Nothing forum where random thoughts are welcome and sometimes we're just plain sillly. (We can't help ourselves!) If you have a question, just ask and one of us "oldies" will be glad to answer if we can!

Aaaahhhh, since you asked, WaytoGo, here's the "scoop."  The new Web site will be officially launched on Friday, May 26.  In the words of my teenagers, it's going to be "awesome!" 

Looking forward to your Web site feedback on this forum ... for those of you who would like to take a sneak peek prior to the 26th, please send me a private message and I'll add you to the list of "previewees."  (Yes, I made that word up!).

Drum Roll.......................................

Now we get to see what Firecracker has been up to for umpteen weeks.  I heard a rumor he's been sitting in a dark room at the NWO,  the other staffers periodically hear a maniacal laugh come from the room.  OK, it's more like one of Pappy's Tee Hee's.

Anyway, the boy has done some really fine work..........go take a look, you'll be impressed.   Look how happy Monty is !!!

Firecracker go Boom !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Firecrackah go BOOM!
Pappy go HEE HEE!

The new site is plumb classy lookin' and is much easier to navvygate! Pappy might hafta dress up a little to use the new site...well, as soon as Calhoun is done takin' his nap on my good shirt.

How's that RSS thang work? Pappy might want to make a comment from time to time.

I'll go poke around some more an' give y'all some feedbback as soon's I can.

Lookin' good!

Thanks for checking us out, Pappy, and no need to dress up before logging onto our new site!:D

As with anything new, there's still lots of tweaking that needs to be done -- we sent Firecracker so many e-mails with change requests on Thursday that I think his computer was smoking.  He's hard at work making modifications; once we think we've taken care of everything that we are aware of, we'll ask you all to come behind us and scrutinize to see what we've missed.

Stay tuned!

I am totally impressed with the website.

Wondering what Firecracker is going to do with all his free time now that the work is done?  (notice I made that comment when I was a safe distance away)

Website seems to fly, unlike many websites.  Easy to navigate.  And the archives seem to really work. 

Particular kudos to Firecracker (or maybe Patti standing over him with a match?) for resolution of issues brought to his attention (wonder when a firecracker sleeps?)

Good Job to All !!!!!

WHE, your avatar is a forum issue, this topic is about the newspaper website........so you're "off topic"............just kidding. 

I continue to be impressed with the website and it's updated info each day.
