sk8eycat, I don't know how other computers work,

first, I place the curser where I want the photo to be placed; 

then I go to the top row of features and pick "Image".

It brings up an "Add Image" and

select from computer photos,

or copy and paste the "URL" in "choose file".

Then select the "layout" you prefer.

I usually size mine to 300 "width";

press "OK".

If that doesn't work, sorry.

I remember sitting on the sofa with my husband, & 3 month old son, watching the moon landing on tv, & saying to my husband....''we'll always remember this moment''.

Saddened too by the loss of Niel Armstrong. The "space race" was a big part of my childhood in the 60s and the leading figures were my boyhood heroes. The world feels a little older and bleaker this evening.

When in doubt, ask Wiki.

Schulz often touched on religious themes in his work, including the classic television cartoon, A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965), which features the character Linus van Pelt quoting the King James Version of the Bible Luke 2:8–14 to explain "what Christmas is all about." In personal interviews Schulz mentioned that Linus represented his spiritual side.

Schulz, reared in the Lutheran faith, had been active in the Church of God as a young adult and then later taught Sunday school at a United Methodist Church. In the 1960s, Robert L. Short interpreted certain themes and conversations in Peanuts as being consistent with parts of Christian theology, and used them as illustrations during his lectures about thegospel, as he explained in his bestselling paperback book, The Gospel According to Peanuts, the first of several books he wrote on religion and Peanuts, and other popular cultureitems.

From the late 1980s, however, Schulz described himself in interviews as a "secular humanist":^[44]

“	I do not go to church anymore... I guess you might say I've come around to secular humanism, an obligation I believe all humans have to others and the world we live in.[45]

I had the impression that Shulz was a mild Xtian. Linus Van Pelt often quotes scripture. Perhaps I'm wrong.

Idaho Spud, I think Snoopy was modeled after an actual dog Schulz had when he was a kid...I don't know if Schulz was raised in a religious family, but as an adult he was definitely a non-believer.

PS: There may be dogs on the Moon, but Neil Armstrong is gone forever, and I can't stop crying.

BRB...maybe

Hemp Bricks Are Harder Than Concrete For Homes And Buildings! 

Here is a possibility for building material. Are there any down-sides to hemp, other than being illegal to grow?
