GG is fine! Is Cardhu welsh?

[Cardhu]

Cardhu is a Scotch whisky but I am English living in Spain.

Powerpoint Presentation with music.

ISLÀNDIA

For those of you that do not have PowerPoint
the FREE Microsoft PowerPoint Reader can be downloaded from HERE


Click the picture to see the Presentation.
Right click for full screen and to back up to the first slide if the musics stops.

My haiku is a bit rusty, but here's a try--and posting is so much faster than faxing.




Warm, fresh, sweet, peaches...
Baked, and cobbled together
with mounds of ice cream.

Spain?! Wow—too cool! I made it to Cozumel—once! I’d love to live there, but only if I was wealthy. The poor there are truly poor, not like the whiny Americans that the left has convinced are deprived.

So—is it good whiskey—really, really good? LOL I can’t drink—one sniff and I’m out. I’ve been the DD since about one minute after I got my license. LOL again

[gardengirl]

Man, oh man, oh man
does that ever look delicious
melting in my mouth

[gardengirl]

Beautiful! Is that Iceland?

[OESY]

That was quick. Congrats on your haiku.

[gardengirl]

Thanks! Your scrumptious pic inspired me! I don’t bake much anymore—neither hubby or I need it, and if I bake it we will eat it!

[Cardhu]

Did you watch the Presentation?

It is Iceland - many countries and regions spell it that way but only Portugal uses the circumflex accent.

[Cardhu]

I don´t have the circumflex on my keyboard and am too lazy to go to the characters sets.

[gardengirl]

What is circumflex? My computer will only let me watch a bit of the presentation and then it cuts it off. Be gentle with me here—Dita just walked me through how to post images a couple days ago! I’m in awe of how much y’all know how to do!

[Cardhu]

If you have downloaded the Reader or already have PowerPoint you may have to right click and make it full screen and back up to the first slide so the music does not stop.

[Cardhu]

Circumflex is the upsidedown V accent like this ^

[gardengirl]

I’m getting closer, I think! The music plays but the pics won’t change. A screen keeps popping up that says to install Office 2003 and wants a 25 number password. LOL My computer has crashed so many times, if I ever had it, it’s long gone!

[Cardhu]

You change the screen in this case by rollin your mouse wheel or using the arrow keys or clicking the left or right mouse button...

Some Presentation are set to change about every 6 seconds other are manual only some are both manual and automatic.

This one is on mouse click only.

"posting is so much faster than faxing"

Sure it is, OESY! But it doesn't have the aroma or taste that my 'magical fax machine' would impart to those lucky enough to be the recipient thereof...........;-)

[Cardhu]

Just download the Reader and forget about Office 2003

[Cardhu]

Ask yorkie she is an expert.

Goodnight all

[yorkie]

Goodnight, Cardi! Thank you so much for the Power Point Presentation of those beautiful pictures from Iceland. There is so much beauty in this world, it is overwhelming! (Of course the music was beautiful, too!)

Thank you, and goodnight, Sir Cardi!
