Bachelor Chef -- Carpetbag Steak

Tim Blair does his own version of "Bachelor Chef", something called a "carpetbag steak". Given how I feel about shellfish (blech) seems even weirder than the stuff I create.

1 Ah, so I'm not the only one who refuses to eat anything with an exoskeleton. . .

Also, possible bug report?  The comment box will sometimes stick while loading:  the whole page and interface will appear, but no cursor can be placed within the typing area.  Refreshing fixes it so far.  I'm not sure if this is new, or old, or even actually from your end and not just random internet issues, but, best to report it.

That's always been an issue, and it's an IE bug.

I think it can be fixed, and what it takes is for all the IMG tags to contain hard-wired sizes. It's on Pixy's list of things-to-do-in-his-copious-spare-time.

3 Gotcha.  Though, in case it is useful data, I'm using Firefox.  So, whatever the bug is, it can hit Firefox as well.

I think I misinterpreted your comment. The bug I was talking about, in IE, affects posts which have pictures in them. The comment box gets displayed before the pictures show up, and though the rest of the page contents gets shoved down when the image finally finishes downloading, the comment entry box does not.

Sounds like your problem is something else entirely.
