Ok, I have a question, how do you do a link so you just click on a word? I figured out how to do the link to click on, but how do you attach that to a word?

Take out the spaces and type this:

[ url = http://www.haineshisway.com ]WORD[ /url ]

You can quote my message and you'll see that it looks like this:

WORD

Wait, DR Danise, don't get off the bus 'til I say HI!

DR Cillaliz - Click on Quote in a message where someone has done it and copy and paste the code onto a Word document, or as I've done on my Mac, onto a Stickie. When you want to do something similar, just copy and paste the code you've saved, and replace the URL with the one you want to link to. Between the bracketed b & /b put in the words you want to appear in your message.

Thanks Ginny. I hadn't thought of the obvious - seeing what everyone else had done and copying that. I have it saved and will try it when I have something to link to

That was one of the first lessons I learned in beginning HTML - never type code you don't have to!

Nevermind, they are only selling pepperoni hand tossed for $5. I really do not like pepperoni pizza. So I ordered one and will go get it. They have delivery but I have one of those addresses that people can never seem to find, so it's easier to go get it.

Spirtas should be here in ten minutes. He'll be surprised that we're going to a restaurant after he's just come from one, but them's the breaks, baby, them's the breaks.

Thrift shops!!!! Only place I shop for clothes. Especially the Value Village in Redmond WA!!! The Microsoft millionaires go on these diets, you see, and lose six dress sizes. Then they head over to Nordstrom and Bellevue Square, and buy ALL NEW CLOTHES in size 2... before they can cut the tags off, well, what can I say -- some of the weight has crept back onto their bones... so they take all the size 2 new stuff to Value Village for a tax write off - and head out to buy more STUFF!!! So, as I browse on Monday - 99-cent day - I sometimes find these amazingly beautiful brand new clothes in size 2, many with the tags still attached!!! I must have over a hundred dollars worth of clothes in my closet by now!!

PennyO -- Do you realize how famous that Value Village in Redmond will be once JEWISH THIGHS becomes the biggest hit in Broadway history? And when that day comes, I will be able to say that I almost met you several different times.

We will go to our standby, Chelsea Grill, a nice, homey place with good food and pleasant atmosphere. We will probably then trawl around looking for a nice dessert place.

Ben, I am glad you didn't say that the two of you were going to trawl around the neighborhood looking for dessert.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, BEN AND ANT!!!

I believe I got She Loves Me on LP at my local market - sealed, in stereo.

Sealed in Stereo? Does that mean two pieces of plastic wrap?

I bought my copy of SHE LOVES ME at a discount bookstore in the Coddingtown Mall in Santa Rosa. I was managing a men's shoe store in those days. The name of the store was Hardy Shoes. Our unofficial slogan was "Every woman loves a man with a Hardy on."

So, I guess you could say that I have spent my whole life in shoe business.

Happy, happy anniversary to Ben and Ant!

I myself have never had anyone around long enough to celebrate an anniversary...the parole officers always seemed to catch up with them, somehow. Ah, well.

So congrats to the both of you!!

Sorry, that is the best I could do, card wise!

If you tried dating someone other than felons or geriatrics, you might not have that trouble, Michael. Of course, by mentioning geriatrics, I just put myself out of the running.

I had to buy two of them--they wouldn't let me buy a single. I still wonder if I die a spinster (as that is looking to be the case), will I get my money back for the unused grave or what will become of it?

If you should die a spinster (better than an old maid like me) then we can use the double plot to build you the type of shrine you truly deserve.

And what the Heck do you mean they wouldn't sell you a single??? Why not? I think I would check with the Consumer Affairs department in your state. OH, never mind, I forgot Jeb was Governor

Just sent something to the IRS office near Buffalo in Cheektowaga, New York. Nothing great, but I like saying Cheektowaga.

George, the doctored card is GREAT! We love it. Michael, don't feel bad we loved yours also and now we have two!

Ben · « **Reply #143 on:** August 07, 2006, 04:29:19 PM »

We got a surprise when we went out for dinner. Our old standby is CLOSED! They were open last week. We walked up and the gate is down and a sign explaining that they can't afford the rent increase and had to shut down. Oh, well. We went to another nice place called Dish and had a very nice, romantic anniversary dinner. We had a lot of food so we will have dessert at home.

I am sorry, but if game was the only meat around, I would become a vegetarian. But that is (pardon the expression) horse racing!

I was lurking and couldn't resist the TOD. I LOVE garage sales! The greatest thing I ever found at a Garage Sale - a Contents Sale, actually - was years ago in Toronto. We were driving home from somewhere on a Sunday afternoon, going through Rosedale, a wealthy, older neighborhood. I noticed a Contents Sale sign in front of a stately mansion and asked my then husband to stop while I ran inside to take a peek. It was late in the day, so the place was practically empty. Some of the built-in floor-to-ceiling bookcases had a few books left, and that was about it. I picked up a volume and leafed through it. STORIES FOR TWO - around 20 one-act plays by Ferenc Molnar. It looked like a fun read, so I paid a quarter for the book and left.
Later that night, I opened the book to the title page - and saw that it was inscribed to some friends (in Hungarian) by Ferenc Molnar! Dated 1950.

The post-script to the story is that I'm going to Ottawa in October to be one of 50 Hungarians honored by the Canadian government. I think the family of the rightful owners of the book will be there. I'm going to give it back to them. (Which is what I should have done when I first found the inscription - but perhaps I'm a better person now.)
