What time is it?

Post by gingerbreadman »

Tonight I noticed when I was NOT logged in, and being from the East coast it was actually showing the right times for everything. Then I logged in and of course the time was wrong... Had to change from GMT -6 to GMT -5 and then all was good!

Anyone else notice this?

Oh, and also...

I think there's something going on with the amazon ads and Internet Explorer again :roll:

And the solution is NOT to use firefox, though that's the only way I can post this... :roll: :roll:

No problem with Ads... (am on Firefox at home IE at work)

But I did notice that my GMT time changed somewhere between the time I was logged off at 4:00 pm MTN time to when I got home and logged in at 6:00 pm......

Right! so we agree! Using firefox now, out of desperation! :lol: but normally use IE when at home... :wink:

If I try to view with IE I just get this light blue colored page... View source, and I can see all the HTML, but IE is not showing anything... :roll:

A little while ago when I logged on, for some reason the time showed G.M.T. -7 hours, rather than the usual -6 hours.
THEN, the discussion board page would not load at all for over 20 minutes.
It seems to be fine now-I won't even TRY to make sense of what happened.
I can actually understand the EINSTEIN THEORY better than I can understand computers. :-?

So I'd guess you are at home now...? That 's why you can read this?

Ahhh now... I see now I can BN with IE now! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Something drastically wrong with that last Amazon ad!

BTW... I'd guess it's 5:38 pm somewhere! :lol:
