Important News!
Hi every kitty and human,
Life's been a mess for me but I'm hanging in there. First, last year, my husband nearly died and then had a second major surgery earlier this year. My mother-in-law passed away this past July, we cared for her 24/7 in her final months. My father passed away Oct. 16, after almost three months on life support; and now my mother's health is failing rapidly - dad dying didn't help, they were married for 61 years. If that wasn't enough -- When I went to post my monthly Happi Purrday message, I found out Comcast discontinued their newsgroup server. Soooooo, I tried to find a Usenet server via my Earthlink account, nope, and then my Yahoo! account, no there too. Refusing to scour endlessly for a freebie nntp, and utterly unwilling to pay anything, I finally remembered my Google account. (Yeah, I know, four accounts may seem like a lot but I have a couple more - nothing is going to stop me from being online!) Good old Google. So, now I'm using Google to access this group. If I disappear - if the December purrday list is not posted by Dec. 2nd, please, please, someone e-mail me and let me know! Also, it will enable me to send the list via e-mail for someone else to post if I loose Google. My e-mail addresses are or or . Thanks! Anti Evelyn, meowmie of Shahna and Shadow |

Anti Evelyn, meowmie of Shahna and Shadow Sorry to read of this, my sympathies are extended, As for a news server I'd suggest: http://news.datemas.de/ for $5 a year, which I use; or http://news.aioe.org/ which is free, but a bit flaky and which I keep as a backup.Anything is better than Google! -- Purrs, Mme.

No need for that. Set your newsreader for nntp.aioe.org -- it's free, but it's text-only. Debby |

"Debby Hanoka" So, now I'm using Google to access this group. No need for that. Set your newsreader for nntp.aioe.org -- it's free, but it's text-only. Debby First of all, I'm sending my deepest sympathies on your loss and trials. Bless your heart, You are in my purrayers. Google sucks. I used to have Comcast too but now I have individual.net which about $20 or less a year. Love Kyla Mosey's hoomin |
