Safari is the one browser I didn't test things in.

That's because it's stupid. Even the name is stupid.

The name really is. Internet Explorer is even a cheesy name, but back when the Internet was this hokey wild west thing barely a step beyond BBS's, I guess the idea of Exploring made sense. But a Safari? Are there lions? Gazelles? Can I shoot a rhino?

Go ahead. Go ahead, shoot.

Bang. Now what in the hell was the topic anyway?

Be shure to use your site. You might just shoot a bear.

btw, one of you geeks should really tell me. Whatever is a firefox? Don't shoot one, okay?
I like them. hahaha (likes the name java)

You noob! There are no bears on Safari!

^^^ See above.
I never go on Safari. Okay, the school system has used it but I rarely needed it. I need a trip, but not that kind.

Name a Browser St. Martins or Bahamas and I'm there, okay? Chincoteague? OOh, oh, deep sea fishing. How about Pacific, or spacific depending on how spastic the browser is.

Is Safari any worse a name than Opera?

Don't worry. None of that even bothers me. If the damned thing is at least functional and holds the things I need it to, I'm all good. Browsers are like having the right hand bag. You have to have it to go where you want and take what you want. I won't even tell you the multi-functionality of my purse which is like a hand bag, napsack, all-purpose file, and stuff. So, browsers have to be like that.

They should name one Bowser, like a family dog name. Dogs like to go everywhere with you and they make you feel way better. Yep, that would work. Now, what the hell ever was the topic of this thread again?
