<t>When 'we' were much younger the highway used to go past the Vista House instead of along the gorge at that point. It was always one of our favorite stopping points, and where my dad aimed for hoping we could make it to there before we had to stop (again) on the way from Eastern Washington to Sale...

<t>Hi! Is it o.k. to delete the data in the COOKIE file in the Windows temp file? I use XP? Deleting cookies was such a striaght forward thing in Windows 98, but I've never done it in XP, so don't know if it even needs to be done. All that is in that file is about 16...

<r>Guess what!! The old Barbie patterns do not fit the NEW Barbie. Too much time between granddaughters, I guess!! Anyway, are there patterns for the new slimmer Barbie? I do not want to even begin to alter the patterns I have for bust size and waist, etc. I haven't been to th...

Thanks Carla...now that you mention it, it DOES happen when I bring up an Office file. But I wonder 'why now' , I've been running them on this same system for quite awhile.

<t>Buy 60" (1 2/3 yds) of 54" material. Cut one strip 20" x60" and fit it to the top and two sides, allowing enough to secure the bottom and have a little ease . Be sure to mark the top Cut 2 20" squares for the remaining sides and attach them . I'd start with the top seam first, as that will be the...

<t>I thought it was remarkably quiet. Certainly not like first daughter weddings in the past. You KNOW the press would not let it go by without a lot of folderol .

<t>I was impressed both with Hillary and with Bill O'Reilly.

At least she answered all the questions..whether you liked...

<t>Actually, it IS a matter of semantics. If you're paid, you're professional, BUT 'paid' needs definition. The Olympic athletes must be amateur BUT many are compensated in some way for being athletes if not strictly for their performances. I'd say IF you're paid for your work, whatever it is, you a...

Oh, they do. But i am having a hard time co-ordinating the fur ruffs. Does the sealskin go with the wolf ruff or the mink? Wouldn't want to commit a fashion faux pas at the next igloo raising!:wah:

libertine

<t>Way back in the late 50s or early 60s the fashion magazines touted the practice of counting your 'points' when you were dressed to see if you were over dressed. Contrasting belt was 1 point, earrings were a point, if your skirt and blouse were different colors they were a point a piece, etc. Each...

Just out of curiosity and for my own edification, how old are you Shrike?? I am a RETIRED person (that's as close as you'll get to my actual age. :wah:)

The reason I ask is because I am interested in the age difference in the reactions to Hunter S Thompson.

<t>Rhubarb is seasonal. It is the first edible we get in the spring in Alaska..and it grows here like mad. It is basically a cool area plant, but I'm sure it has or could be adapted to most moderate clilmates. When I lived in Idaho everyone had rhubarb. We seldom see it in the stores because it grow...

Well, the new season started tonight. It will be interesting!! I think his original team will return in come capacity. His character tonight was a little less arrogant than usual, but I enjoyed the play between House and Wilson.

Looks like another good season

I just finished The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde. What a hoot. A real send-up of mystery novels in general, and of a lot of other genres along the way. This author has written several others, and I'll be reading those soon. His character is THursday Next!!

<t>In the past, as recently as the mid to late 1800s, it was not uncommon for cousin to marry because they were often the only available matches because of distances. Families traveled west together, settled in the same area, and were convenient when it was time to get married. New studie...

<t>WOW!!! Without giving it away, do you think it's for real or just the end of season cliff hanger?? I'm not sure how I feel about it. The show tonight was o.k. but I think it is losing a little of the impetus with all the sub plots going on. I prefer more interaction with the patients e...

Also Lonsome Dove and any of the Sackett movies..They usually have Tom Selleck in them.

<t>Actually, I think Cuddy and Wilson especially really DO like House as he is. In the episode much earlier where he was trying to be a 'good guy' they couldn't cope. They do respect his ability and are willing to tolerate his major personality flaws. The others, however are still too idealistic to ...

<r>O.K. How about tonight's episode?? Are we only two weeks from the end of the season, or do we have three to go?? The character developemnt in this particular one didn't surprise me, but it will surprise me to see it come to fruition. I purposely don't visit any fan sites for House...if...

<t>O.K. We're halfway through the 'new' shows : After Idol...What did you think of last night's episode? I think I liked it. Showed a side of House that has always been apparent, but that has never really gotten play. And the last scene was so poignant (if a little melodramatic). I hope t...

Thanks..I use NETSCAPE, but I have set-up the Internet Explorer so it defaults back to Netscape (or something) and that hasn't helped. I have looked in all the manuals and no where can I find a reference to changing that particular default in WORD.

Thanks again

I have a long list of e-mails to send. I have figured out how to mail merge them with WORD,however, that program defaults to Ourtook Express and I don't use Outlook. Can anyone tell me where and how to change the mail server in WORD so I can send these e-mails?
