Bruce!  You rock!  Thanks!!!!  Geeze.  I'd been staring at that code 
and just didn't see that line, I guess.  Blocking widgets.twimg.com

With that site blocked, I now have a dozen tabs loaded in Safari and 
its gone mostly idle.  M'mac is very responsive now! /me does a happy

crunching away in the background, niced at +10.
