Thank you all for the overwhelming response to my JPEG viewing 
question.  Apparently, I am a bonehead :) and overlooked some obvious
places for the viewers/decompressors.
 
To summarize my boneheadedness, here are bits of the wonderfully 
helpful posts I recieved:

From  mphbj639@emoryu1.cc.emory.edu:
 
There are 3 viewers worth trying: picture decompress (shareware?),
jpegview, and pictpixie.  I think jpegview is the fastest, but I've
run across a few JPEGs that it doesn't decompress well.

From mccarty@vmser.enet.dec.com:
 
There is a brand new version of GIFconverter (v2.3b1) that will read JPEG.
I got it off our corp. network, but is probably available from your favorite
FTP site.  It is definitely available off Compu$erve.  This program is
$40 shareware... require Quicktime compressors installed...

who all responded very helpfully and pointed me in the right direction(s).
I'll probably go with the new version of GIFConverter whose previous
versions have served me well from time to time.  Definitely one I'm going
to register.
 
Thanks again,
