 * It all started the day that those strange menu options appeared in the top grey
   margin area.
 * In addition to that problem (which was resolved quickly), I noticed that I was
   being automatically logged out, whenever I navigated from my dashboard pages,
   to one of my blog post pages… upon arrival on a post page, the word “Edit” no
   longer appeared in the top grey margin. The more I tried to figure out what was
   going on, the more my stats showed all sorts of referrals from “WordPress dashboard.”
 * So I did the usual… cleared cache, cookies, refresh, restart, heck I even shut
   down and rebuilt permissions and everything else. No change.
 * I’m still getting logged out each time I go from the dashboard to a page (it 
   was sooo much easier to edit a page directly from the page, rather than have 
   to dig down a couple levels in the dashboard’s left margin…!)
 * Random clue: this is ONLY happening with Firefox (the latest version, and the
   version just prior). This problem does not occur with Safari.
 * But that’s not all. I’m no longer able to do any special formatting like colors
   or underlines. I add them, I hit “update,” they go away. I’ve even copied formatting
   from other pages onto my new page, hit update, and successful formatting I’m 
   viewing on a published page goes away on the new page. And this happens using
   BOTH Firefox and Safari.
 * I truly don’t know what I’m doing wrong, but I’d sure love some help! I tried
   forums, but can’t even find the thread any more to see if a response was addressed(
   it’s been 3 days now). So i tried email, but after one canned response (telling
   me to clear cache/ cookies/ refresh which I’d already done) they stopped responding.
 * Any help at all would be appreciated… I’d love to hear that I’m just being a 
   dork… as long as I can learn how NOT to be… hehe
