I bought Prisca a kindle fire for Christmas last year. Sprang for the warranty and everything. I knew she'd use it for surfing, posting, and especially shopping. I even emailed Dr. Harley and Joyce about getting the Marriage Builders android app running on Kindle Fire, and shortly thereafter, it was available for it. smile

Prisca now informs me that I need to change my name from markos to marmoset, because that's what the Kindle auto-completes my name to.

Stupid kindle. smile

So according to the policy of joint agreement, I have no name at all until we agree, is that right?

I thought you meant this:

Substantially cuter, isn't it? But that's a marmot.

I never knew I liked marmots better than marmosets. This kindle is certainly educational...
