Trailers Trash

brunoffrance · 01-21-2006, 10:24 AM

Hi there;
I'm just coming from a trip in the south California, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon , Monument Vallée, route 66, Anza borrego ( tried to see rich Luhr...), and i've taken lot of pictures of this fabulous country; not many aistreams on the road, but some trailers trash as the name of the book. i don't know if they are inside but i wonder how we can let these trailers in so poor condition when you know they were in the movie: Bagdad cafe. i ve found them at this famous café, Newberry spring, cal, Route 66. 1 Airstream & 1 Avon.

I clicked on your link at the bottom of your post to try reading it and was immediately slammed with spam ads. When I closed your link, the spam ads followed.......
I am going to clean out my memory cache and history of sites visited and log back in, but you may want to remove your link at the bottom of your posting. I have a new eMac which never before has let spam in and you may have a virus in your site......

Jim,

Strange, I did not have a problem. Using Windows ME and Netscape 7.2.

I didn't get any spam per say just 2-3 popup ads that were blocked by Mozila and AdBlock.

I think Jim may be calling popups Spam, just in case here is a good definition of Spam. Spam and popups are both a pain.

spam (spăm)
n.
Unsolicited e-mail, often of a commercial nature, sent indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups; junk e-mail.
tr.v., spammed, spam·ming, spams.

To send unsolicited e-mail to.
To send (a message) indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups.

[From SPAM (probably inspired by a comedy routine on the British television series Monty Python's Flying Circus, in which the word is repeated incessantly).]

Sorry I missed you Bruno. Did you travel through Phoenix on your western trip? Sad to see the old Airstreams just gathering dust.

Hey Bill ~
Check out those windows on the Avion. Look to be pretty close to what you need?

Brad,

You are right, they are close. But it would be a shame to destroy a trailer for a few windows.

In the true sense, I was experiencing "Pop-ups"....
But pop-ups were designed originally to solicit business from targeted groups.
The pop-ups I got almost immediately when I tried to translate a posting on this link from French to English were immediate. I could not close all the windows when I tried to. After leaving the link & returning to the Forum, the pop-ups followed. I had to log out of the Forum, shut down my eMac, clear my cache & history, and then turn on my computer and log back in to the Forum. We have a DSL provider and the latest eMac with OSX.
This had never happened before and I go all over the internet.....
Unfortunately, I don't think there is a term for mis-targeted and relentless pop-ups that have nothing to do with the subject matter you are viewing....
There is no forum symbol either.....
Hence, I christen thee unwanted and mis-targeted pop-ups - SPOP

Oh, get over it! We all endure the stuff and you knew how to fix the anoinance. Remember you brought it on by clicking on the link. Let's talk Airstreams. Keep on the thread.

Hi brad;

Instead of the way to Phoenix, , from flagstaff, we wanted to be on the route 66 in Arizona then in california because my wife wanted , absolutly, to see the famous bagdad café, at first... . Then, As we had to go back to los angeles, we had decided to see San Diego and triing to see, Rich Luhr ( Airstream life ) at the Anza borrego desert. I had thought to go to Phoenix but the route 66 wan. that was a choice;

Bruno.

hi jim, i think I've no virus on my site... only one comment and to do it, you have to duplicate a random suite of letters , then i accept or not, your message. No other way to introduce something in the blog.

i've tried the translated page (french to english ) with Google pop-up window accepting , and i agree with you, there was a link that appeared ... It's from google, not from my blog; sorry for that;
On the Google task bar, i always select the option, NO pop-up .

thank you .

Bruno.
