Is PFA still posting batches?

Yes ma'am. Think solar panels and buildings have been more common than swimming pools recently, though.

Wtf is this and why won't it go away

Hi
It's been the strangest thing. Sometimes they show up and sometimes they don't. oh, this looks like a showing up day. but who knows how many.

For the first time e v v v v e r (I guess I am no longer an "early adapter") I used PC this morning to try and capture more than one or two or three Zs. (My internet speed is bad and usually holds me down to -- at most -- three Zs) So this morning I had one ding ding that told me I had a Zoltar to work on, but there was nothing in my queue. ?? Got another ding ding and there was a Z in my queue so I completed/submitted it.

Any instructive comments would be 'preciated

Nope, but they are...

I am not seeing the brand name. I don't understand.

That sounds about right, I just got a few, and this is the first time I've really tried with my 'super speedy' internet.

You aren't missing anything, they are blank. I checked a few and it looks like they loaded all of their hits without anything in them.

A very special Happy Birthday to Kirk Douglas, who just turned 100. (Whew.) Here's one of my favorite clips from one of my favorite movies (which I was most impressed with several decades ago ... at the age of ... seven). Cute lyrics.

Careful, the instructions state if you go too fast they'll reject you, and they expect you to spend 20 minutes on it

I had this song on one my Disney Sing-A-Long Tapes, but I haven't heard it in years. Thanks for the morning shot of nostalgia

He had a lovely birthday bash - can't really beat a kiss from Catherine Z-J and a toast from Spielberg!

I skipped this one for that very reason.

What is your new super speedy internet? (I'm at 2.5Mbps.)

Any idea why the first dinged Z didn't wind up in my queue? It was listed in PC in the Queue watch list ... Or did you steal it?
