Got a question you’ve been dying to ask, but you weren’t sure where or when to ask it?  Well, here’s a collaboratively edited question and answer thread that will be devoted entirely to the sharing of information from one to another.  We’re very fortunate to have quite a few “professional” bloggers and developers amongst us, as well as one that even runs his own forum.

Some examples of the most frequently asked questions include:

1.  How do I bold a comment, or change a font to Italic?

2.  How do I post a picture?

…………..3.  How do I make those smilies?

4.  Why aren’t my YouTube videos showing up?  

5.  How do I post a single “Tweet”?

These are just a few of the most commonly asked ones… or perhaps you have a question about the site itself?  Also, feel free to practice what you’ve just learned too.  As “Jello333” put it, “Have like a “scribble” page where anyone trying to learn new techniques can do it all in one place. Here, lemme try this…. nope, didn’t work… how ’bout this… aha!”  😀

Oh, and don’t let me forget to mention one of our newest Treepers, “nettles18”, as she was the inspiration behind this post.

Today the Treehouse sends out enthusiastic wishes for a fantastic birthday to one of our own admins, Patriot Dreamer. PD, as she’s known to her bestest of friends, is the wit and wisdom behind our daily Bumper Sticker posts.  She’s a complete whiz with her Photobucket account, and she’s usually the first of the admins to catch on to any gaming reference, or for that matter most pop-culture or movie references.  She also calls herself a fan of all things Dr. Who, and a Star Trek “geek”.

PD grew up in North Carolina, however, being an Army spouse, she’s moved 5 times in just the last eight years.  Being quick of mind, fleet of foot, and possessing the ability to travel light, she has all the necessary qualities for an excellent Treeper admin.  (more…)

Major h/t to anwtex for doing the hard part….finding the video! 😀

This segment of the interview centers around the inconsistencies in both Sybrina and Tracy’s testimony regarding their son’s voice.  The fact that the State withheld information regarding who was in attendance during an earlier meeting where Serino questioned Martin is more than troubling.  Officer Bill Irwin, the same person who did the voice stress analysis on George, was sitting in on the earlier questioning of Martin….a corroborating fact that, until now, was unknown to the defense.  Why did Sanford Police Capt. O’Connor and the State keep this information from the defense until they were deposed?   O’Mara states it’s the same issue they keep having with all the witnesses…“They change – particularly after conversations with the State.”

In one breath,  “In Session” TV’s Jean Casarez defines the people’s viewpoint of George Zimmerman as,  “…the most hated man in America.”  Then she goes on to say, in an almost incredulous voice, “There are supporters of George Zimmerman.”  In the video below, she probes into the sources behind Zimmerman’s defense fund.

Trayvon Martin’s family attorney Ben Crump, speaks with “In Session” TV correspondent Jean Casarez…and attempts to explain (as only he can) why he interviewed DeeDee shortly after Martin was shot.

Both attorneys appeared on AC360 tonight to discuss the latest photo of George Zimmerman…a high-resolution image showing Zimmerman with a bloody face and swollen nose.  The defense did not receive this photo until late last October, having previously been given only a rather grainy black and white photocopy of the original.

Looking for something different than the same old Thanksgiving-themed conversations?  We’ve given you a set of four cards, each containing 25 squares…squares describing something that will possibly occur at your Thanksgiving dinner table.  Don’t be afraid to shout out a hearty “THANKSGIVING BINGO” as soon as you’ve got 5 in a row.   Oh, and don’t try to manipulate the conversations just so you can win….mkay?  😉

Ronald Kessler, Chief Washington correspondent for Newsmax, and author of the news-breaking article on the affair, spoke with Harris Faulkner tonight regarding what he thinks are several layers of cover-up.

“There are several cover-ups going on here. One is the claim that the President Obama was not aware of what was going on with the FBI investigation… Simply look at the facts. Is there any way the FBI would launch an investigation on the CIA Director without telling the president? The second cover-up was the fact that the FBI was told to hold off on this until after the election. I was told in early October that the FBI was outraged about this… It started in a very strange way. The FBI came across emails on his military email account in which he referred to doing something under the desk. And there was a misinterpretation that that meant corruption, something under the table. It actually meant sex under the desk.“

The following “complete” video was captured then uploaded via my iPad’s video cam.  LOL…for you fans of pirated movies, it shouldn’t make any dif.  😉

Not only did they lie – They Watched Them Die

(Reuters) – Officials at the White House and State Department were advised two hours after attackers assaulted the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11 that an Islamic militant group had claimed credit for the attack, official emails show.

The emails, obtained by Reuters from government sources not connected with U.S. spy agencies or the State Department and who requested anonymity, specifically mention that the Libyan group called Ansar al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks.

The brief emails also show how U.S. diplomats described the attack, even as it was still under way, to Washington. (more…)

Treepers…please join with us in celebrating a most momentous occasion. We couldn’t have done it without YOU!

Would you like to see where in the world all the visitors to the Treehouse come from?  LOL…we’ve even got a lone “Wolverine” in Cuba!  (Somehow they’re breaking through the internet ban.  How cool is that?)  WordPress started offering this feature last February, so naturally it registers a little short of the five million mark.  We’ll be celebrating our second anniversary on November 2nd, so if any of y’all are thinking of sending a gift, feel free to combine this year’s traditional gift of cotton with last year’s paper…$  😉
