Finest FRiends,

With FR running at Warp Speed today (HA!), I asked the mods to change the date in the title - so we can run it again tomorrow, and hopefully FR will at least get past the crawling stage. :(

Thanks to those of you who had the patience to post. Will try to answer my pings now.

It almost looks like there is a epidemic of hiccups in FR! LOL! I might try to put one together and save it until tomorrow. Don't want to waste space by double-posting. It was such a wonderful idea and will be fun to do!

Has anyone explained what on earth is going on around here? Sunday just made me "twitch"....and I was afraid it was going completely down today! Nuts, huh?

Thanks for reminding us that as Mary Queen of Scots said--"in my end is my beginning." It is comforting to know that death is only a comma--not a period when one is in the Lord!

How are you today? What kind of home-remodeling projects are you working on now?

Guess what--it only got up to 85* today in Odessa! It's a miracle! LOL! It just feels so wonderful after the heat we have been experiencing! I'm gonna enjoy it while it's here!

Hi everybody. That's a lovely dinner table, Billie. Thanks for the other tables as well, :-)

I feel like having a glass of wine just by looking at the graphic. Cheers!

Speaking of wine...

The policeman signals to an car driver to pull over to the side of the road, due to the fact that he appears to be driving erratically. He says to the driver, "You appear to have been drinking!"

The driver answers, "No sir, I am just tired."

The policeman looks into the car and notices that the driver is a priest! He also notices that there is an empty bottle on the floor. He says to the driver, "What is, or should I say was in this bottle?

The driver answers, "Water!"

The policeman says, "It is not, it's wine!"

The driver looks up to the heavens and says, "Oh Lord, you have done it again!"

I found one more:

“Men are like fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something with which you'd like to have dinner with."

"Women are like fine wine. They all start out fresh, fruity and intoxicating to the mind and then turn full-bodied with age."

Hi, Meg - see how fun it is to do tables. :) Not so much fun today though - wish they would put a message at the top (where they keep adding links to this or that) and give us some sort of explanation or maybe when we might be back up to speed again.

I almost did not get on and then had to wait and wait...enough distraction and frustration to make a "double you" in my message!

I never heard what the problem was..

There have been numerous double posts today - guess that's one way to bump the threads! LOL

I Went to Try to Find some Borders and Frames on the Internet, but I am too Dense to Figure Out how to Do it! I Finally Decided to Put the Beautiful Gif you Gave me into your Frame to See how it would Look. It Looks a little Out of Focus, or Something, so I Tried to Fiddle with 2 Numbers in all that Information I Copied and Pasted, but it doesn't Look much Different. I think it's Cute, Sweet (((((((Billie)))))))!

We'll be back again tomorrow, Kitty, so try again. When you look for backgrounds, they will be very small graphics (either .jpg or .gif) But when you give it the BACKGROUND command vs. the IMG SRC command, it keeps repeating itself over and over and over, as big as your table is. It starts in the upper left corner and tiles all the way across, and then starts again just under the first 'row' - it keeps going and going and going :) until you turn the table commands OFF.

It is background graphics that surround that picture I posted - if the picture were larger, then the 'frames' (made with the table commands using background graphics) would just expand as large as the picture is. The reason your kitty is too *fat* is not that she ate too much, but you probably posted the width and height of the graphic *I* posted. Miss Kitty is a different size than my little girl graphic, and your numbers should be whatever actual size the kitty graphic is. Preview a post of your kitty graphic without the width and height and it will be right. But we LIKE to include the width and height in posting our graphics, because the browser will leave the right size space for that graphic to open, and if we're reading, the text won't jump around as those graphics (that *weren't* given width and height) open to the true size. It's a good habit to get into. You can get the figures by right-clicking the photo, select properties, and it gives the size under "Dimensions", as an example: 100 x 120 pixels.

So have I confused you even more? :(

Chocolate cake and...


...the table set for tea.

The perfect setting for friends to get together to visit.
