Betsy -- I have a KitchenAid mixer, an ice cream machine with dual vats, a crock pot with a timer, a 400 watt hand blender, cordless electric kettle, and one of those one-handed pepper grinders. Am not averse to the kitchen gadgets. However, West LA kitchens? Way short on counter space.

You need a vacuum sealer. I just vacuum sealed a bunch of meat last night, it's cool and stuff lasts forever.

Thanks tommy but it wouldn't work. I just tried logging into that particular account from another computer - no dice. And I can get into my other couple of gmail accounts from this computer - no problem. There must be something in that account that's messing with the process.

Just tried POP access too. No love.

You know, I'm realizing that my notion of deep-frying seems to require breading.

Clearly you've never attended White Trash Night with me back at the ranch. The menfolk cook the meats in the turkey fryer out in the driveway and the womenfolk (some barefoot & pregnant!) make macaroni and cheese and corn on the cob in the kitchen. We drink of beer from the kegerator using Kool-Aid pitchers to transport it. We also drink of the rum and the whiskey. Froofy drinks are mocked heartily. We partake of the food, gather in the living room, and order of the WWF Raw.

I do need a vacuum sealer. There just isn't a kitchen gadget I don't need. Stuff lasting in my house isn't so much an issue though.

I wish I knew a way to help Wolfram, that sucks.

Sing it, sister.

Though a vacuum sealer would have to be a gift. I can't see myself buying one.

Then I'd be Kat and lori. Which would be too confusing.

Thanks Gud. 'Salright, I'll just send it over the weekend. That way it looks like I'm doing job search related stuff in my spare time.

I'm more concerned now that I'll never get back in and lose all my Gmail stored email.

Is today Jim Morrison's birthday or something? I heard three Doors songs on different stations during a 20 minute drive back from lunch today. While I like "Break on Through" as much as the next guy, that seems a bit excessive for a regular day.

Thanks tommy but it wouldn't work. I just tried logging into that particular account from another computer - no dice. And I can get into my other couple of gmail accounts from this computer - no problem.

Oh, I didn't realize it was just one gmail account you were having problems with. That sucks.

And you've already tried POP....

I thought I saw somewhere there's an experimental thingie (I think for linux) that allows you to mount your google email account as a file system....

eta: google 'gmail filesystem' - there's something for Windows too....

eta²: my thinking is that maybe there's a bad/corrupt piece of mail that's screwing up that account.
