AKA Fight with Thunderbird and Lightning.

I broke down and installed a PBI for now.  I could not get Lightning, the calendaring AddOn for Thunderbird to work using the native FreeBSD pkg or the linux-thunderbird one. The linux-thunderbird package actually refused to start for me.  I need to go figure out how to generate a PR.

The other thing I am playing with is building a memstick image after patching the kernel using this `post <https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?t=35467>`_ in the FreeBSD Forums.  This is for the **Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 WiFi Driver** which I have in all my laptops.  The data wants to be free! from wires.  Since it is chunking away, I will test tomorrow.
