If you scroll down to the bottom on a google image search, you have the option to "Switch to basic version"

true, tho that only applies to your current session. the language thing tho also reverts the image search to the old style every time and with no need to click anything. it's weird actually, but useful.

Just want to mention here that I've been sick for nearly 2 weeks with some miserable virus. Finally kicked that for the most part... now we'll be gone for several days. In case anybody cares... hell I don't care. Do you care?

We just went over to the coast for a few days. Usually stay at the beach but this time we got a room in Forks because the weather is so unpredictable. Some days it was sunny, others stormy. But we love walking the beach. Walked for miles all total, and climbed rocks when the tide was out. It's only a half hours drive from Forks to Kalaloch so we were there daily, all day.

But we did spend a couple hours poking around in the shops in Forks. The place is a huge tourist site ever since Stephanie Meyers' Twilight series. Talked to this one old guy who has a shop called Twilight Central. He told us how crowded it gets starting at the end of June through to September. People from just about every country in the world comes there. But the phenomenal thing is the belief some of these people have in vampires. And not just vampires, they believe the Cullens' really truly live there. And that Jacob Black is out there somewhere in the wilds. He said there was this one lady who wouldn't even get out of her car for fear the vampires might get her. I guess she came with her kids and they couldn't convince her otherwise.

There's a Twilight tours bus that travels around to some of the books sites and some folks have to be assured that the bus is going to be safe from vampires and werewolves. Good grief!!

yeah, a disturbing number of people are unable to distinguish fact from fiction. ex. they see some actor and think it is the character they play or they go somewhere like Forks cuz they think those things really happened there. fruitcakes.
