    Not in your time, but when I was a kid. Cough syrup used to make me light-headed, like I had feathers in my brain.

    Unless it's a well-paying hit and I've finished it, I don't even bother notifying the requester. I just toss it back.

    Oh well, I know the frustration. I must have got lucky with F11 and dialing down the zoom in Chrome.

    I finally got someone's used car to my mechanic today, a Subaru Legacy, generally a very well-reviewed car. First John showed me the water in the trunk, then all the rust underneath, the leaking headgasket, the poorly fitted fender with crooked putty under the paint.

    Verdict: It had been flooded and in a bad accident, and the leaking headgasket is expensive news. The current owner had bought it at an auction, where flooded cars often go. I love my mechanic, but he's married with 2 fine kids in college. And he doesn't charge customers for used car assessments.

    But it got me started. I do a lot of homework online at Edmunds, Consumer Reports and Kelly's Blue Book before I choose anything.

    Which is why I earned next to nothing today.

    Rolling the mouse wheel while holding down the CTRL key will also do it. Not the entire screen, but lots bigger.

    parro! thank you! your help worked.....I got 56% right.....lousy, lousy, lousy. I wonder about their timing. (blame anything but myself, and being half asleep..) And now I see that that was Raulbog's advice, too..

    Honestly living in NY you really have to watch for flooded cars because when there is a flood in the Carolina's like there was this past year that is usually where they send them. After they buy them down here they move them around and eventually they make their way to NY/Jersey area. Its hard to tell if you dont know what you are looking for, its good you have someone that will tell you straight.

    Also? I don't believe I mentioned a preferred method - just that I needed to do it.

    Only in this case one needs the displayed content smaller, not bigger.
