Thank you, ^. I like it too; that's why I chose it. :D :)

No Problem^....< wonders how ^ changed your text?

To ^: I changed the font using the Font Face tool. On the toolbar (where all the buttons are), it's the red A next to the "Change Color" listbox. Click on it, and when the tag shows up in your message, it'll say "font=Verdana" inside the square brackets. You can change it to Tahoma (the default font), Arial, Comic Sans MS, Webdings (Webdings), and I think there may be a few other fonts as well; I'll have to experiment with them.

Thanks ^....< will play with that sooner or later ;)

^ now leads me by over 2,000 posts! :o

To some...by definition, that only means that I have a bigger mouth :D

^ now has Calvin & Hobbes in his sig line. I saw that picture the other day, on one of the sites that ^ had linked to a few dozen replies ago.

< is glad ^ checked out the site :)

< is considering changing sig line stuff....again!! Maybe < need some meds ::)

^ still has the same pic in his avartar as he did a few days ago. ;)

It's a record for < to have the same thing there for more than a few days ^ :D :)

< likes the Calvin & Hobbs pic! Of course as soon as < and everyone else gets used to it, ^ will change it for sure!!  ;)  ;D   

< would like to tell ^ and ^^ that < is a big Calvin & Hobbes fan. :)

< wants ^ and ^^ to know that Maria and her friend made some awesome pics for < and < will be showing them soon..and if ^ and ^^ ever want to use any of the pics < use that would be fine...Tanya already is using the Beatles :)

< thinks that would be very nice of ^! If < could figure out how to do it  :-\\  An Elton John one would be cool!  :)

< thinks that would be very nice of ^! If < could figure out how to do it  :-\\  An Elton John one would be cool!  :)
< wonders if ^ just wants to put an Elton John pic in ^ sig?

If so < would be happy to help ^  ;)

Maybe something funky from the 70s. Not anything too recent, I liked his earlier look with his wild outfits and glasses!  :)

Here's one! http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:D6oFGzs7xAMJ:http://www.bbc.co.uk/totp2/features/wallpaper/images/1024/elton_john.jpg

If you want more...go to google and type his name...then go to images....click on one and then when you see it at the top of the page, right click and go to properties....copy the address then paste it in your sig line :)

Wishes ^^ good luck reaching 5000  :) while she's at a humble... uh... ???  not 100?  ;D

< says welcome to ^ and also adds that ^ will build up the count in time ;)

< waves hello to ^ and ^^. ;)

Howard

Happy thanksgiving, Howard. Don't get too full on the old turkey, heh?  ;D

< hasn't said hello to ^ lately! So, how's everything with you? Any words of wisdom today?  :)

< Absolutely LOVES ^ avatar and sig pics :)

Thanks ^! Now that < knows what to do, < will probably change it more often!  ;)

< LOVES ^'s sign. line and avatar.





Cat

^ has held her 'catwoman' avatar for the longest time.

Words of wisdom, Gemini? Hmmm . . . 'Jammy' which means to be lucky in a smug kind of way (especially when playing games).

Hello ^....< wonders if ^ would like that PM eventually ???

I'm really sorry, Mark. Which PM are you referring to? I may have forgotten something since the last time I posted. If so, forgive me in advance. My memory is awful.

I'll send it soon...these three could easily be perfect fodder for Jeff Foxworthy ;D

<loves the Snoopy picture on ^^^^^^^^'s sig line. :) 8)

Thanks to ^ and ^^^^^^^ (Cat)  :)  and to Bobby, I've never heard the word "jammy" except when describing pajamas  ;D

Lol. There you go. Come to Britain, have a game of darts, hit a bullseye and say 'that was jammy'. We would be most impressed by your knowledge of British colloquialisms.  ;D

I get what you mean about the old pajama thing. We tend to say 'jim-jams' or, if you're lazy (like I am) say ''jamas' instead.

I don't think there's any way I would hit a bullseye! I've played darts a few times and never hit a bullseye yet  :(

<says to ^^: You're Welcome. ;)

<says good evening to ^.

< says Hello to ^  :)

< wonders if anybody else has had a repairman who talks for ever

< can tell ^ that there are a few of them around.  The plumber we had was pretty well versed in the art of chatting to avoid working :D

He was friendly.. but just ever freakin possible point of conversation he had an opiion on.. i went downstairs and did some ironing cus i thought like he would do some work, but he followed me and pretended to look for a socket in that room whilst i did it. Then i took some upstairs and put it away and he looked in that room. I was.. a bit worried.. lol

maybe he "liked" you  ;)

:o

I was wearing very revealing flip flops..

According to some programme (that one wear they teach you how to dress and set you up on a date) flip flops are a sign that you 'swing the other way'  ;)

< says Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Night to everyone :D

< says good afternoon to ^ and v

< Tells  ^ to know the role!

< Congratulates Jeff on 13,000 posts :)

^ is offline right this moment while I am typing but^ has always responded with only positive things to postsI have made in recent past. 
Plus, that Sylvester& Tweety looped chase scene is very clever! But so are Calvin and Hobbes doing the "hippy shake" 8).

< thanks ^ for the kindness :)

<wants to know if I can call you soon.^


Howard

Thank you to ^^. :) I'll have 14K before you know it.

< is sure of that as well :)
< has to wake up very early for work so < says "Goodnight" to ^ and everyone else and wishes all a great night and day :)

G'night, ^! ;)

Good Morning ^ and V :)

It's not morning now, so < will just say good evening to ^!  :)

I still love ^'s sig picture with the Christmas lights on Snoopy's doghouse! :)

<says Good Evening^ ;)



Howard

< is proud of ^ for doing volunteer work....< also does that and enjoys it very much!

< agrees with ^^ about ^^^'s sig line pic....< even made it a wallpaper for < computer :)

I would like to tell ^ and ^^ that I do volunteer work as well! :)

That's great ^

^ is studying hard today (I hope) and < hopes ^ does well on the exams tomorrow ;)

< Dittoes ^ remarks concerning exams.

Double dittos here  ;D

< says "Hi" to ^ and ^^ :)

<says hello to ^ and wants to inform ^ that <has been studying for exams and will continue to do so after <signs off.

< did exams in June.. < hated them... asks ^ if he has considerd finding an exam he isn't in and attempting to do hilarious things in it or was this just < crazy idea

Hi Alchoholica (and everybody here).  :)

<says hello to ^ and ^^.

< see's that Bobby logged on about 5 minuets after he left. < would have stayed on if he had known that...

Despite being in total disagreement with ^'s avatar message < still enjoys having ^ here and had fun posting with ^ this morning

< says "Hello" to all :)

< is very nervous about <'s medical mystery and dr. appt. today :-\\

< also concerned about ^'s Medical mystery.

When do you see the Doc>?

< hopes^^ gets some sensible advice and help from^^'s doc

Thanks ^ and ^^....I go to my doctor today at 4 MST....I'll keep everyone informed in the 2000's thread. I'll probably only get a referral to see a cardiologist today though :-\\

When ^ sees the doctor, it'll be 3:00 where <lives.

Love ^ jumping dolphins.

Apreciate Alchoholica's comments.  :)

< caught ^ this time

How's things?

Meh pretty good.. the Alliance & Leicester have offered me a job at there head office, 13K a year basically doing admin, data input in there Finance office.. this for a man who didn't pass GCSE math lol..

Yourself.. all is good\?

Data input is what I do for a living, mate and I didn't pass GCSE maths either, lol. It's not glamorous but it pays the bills. At least the admin duties will break your day up. Have you been given a contract yet?

As for me, I'm fine. My girlfriend's gone to bed and all is quieter all of a sudden . . .  ;D

Not yet.. i am going in to talk turkey with them on Tuesday.. but it is basically sorted.

Yeah data input.. it can't be great fun but it'll.. well.. occupy me huh.

I'll listen to my i.pod and make a game of it.

You do it with E-Mails don't you?

Extra-Extra!! < went to my regular doctor...(Update in the 2000's)

Nothing really happened that < didn't already expect

Hello to ^ and ^^ and ^^^ and....well everyone!

ok, that's good to know.. so a-ok

As far as what < already knows...yes but as for the mystery of what is wrong...not really....yet :-\\

Ah that's great. It will keep you away from the drink for at least . . . eight hours, heh?   ;)   ;D


Yes, an MP3 player is essential for data entry because the task is so boring. It is a piece of survival equipment for getting through the day in my job.

I work for Royal Mail and do data entry with people's letters. If the machine that checks all the letters doesn't recognise one it will send it to the mail centre for us to type. Here are a couple of 'hints' for sending that letter quicker than normal . . .

- Don't use a red envelope (even on Valentine's day). It doesn't show up well on the computer and we have to get them manually sorted. This will take longer to get to the other person's door.

- Don't draw pictures on your envelopes.

- Always put a return address on the back of the envelope.

- Postcards are usually marked as low priority so putting them in an envelope will get them sent off faster.

Fascinating, heh.   ;D

Just found out three people have posted since writing my essay on letter-writing. Would like to say a big hello to Mark and hope that the mystery illness is solved sooner rather than later.  ;)

God.. if you read back a few pages in what did you do today, you will see i had an eventufll day at the post office

<hello^ ;)


Howard

Hello to ^ & ^^

< says to ^ and everyone else...Hello, I Must Be Going (Great LP and title by Phil Collins!)

Howard

Hello to Howard and the gang. Now for an impromptu sing-a-long . . .

"Deck the halls with bows of holly
Tra-la-la-la la la-la la la"

"Tis the season to get jolly Fa la la la la...la la..laaa..la"

"I don't know the words so I'm a wally . . .

Fa la-la-la la la-la la la"

;D

"You should have learnt, it is now your folly.. fa la la la la..la la ..laaaa.laa"

Bit weak really..

That's not a bad effort off-the-cuff, Alchoholica.

A joint parody in the making perhaps.. or maybe not  ::)

Alright Bob.. daylight hours.. rare for you eh


Lol. Yeah. It's the weekend so I get a chance this side of 12:00am. I've had to get Christmas presents (eugh!) and the tree up (double eugh!). Glad it's done (until we have to get the blimmin' thing down again).

How's your day been, man?

Aye..been n' got a tree today n' all.

Friggin needles all over the bloody place and it poked me up my nose so i wasn't best pleased there.

Didn't get up 'till about 2 however.. wen't out on the tiles last night.

You know you love the Christmas preperation really ;)

Just learning some important life management skills from 'San Andreas' at the moment.

Up your nose, heh? So you got a real tree then? That will be fun hoovering up.  ;D

Grand theft auto? Is it a good game? I could never really get into it after feeling dissapointed by the first game. I might try the Miami one though considering I'm a bit of an 80s man.  ;D

Hello to ^ and everyone else :)

Hi Mark.

Yeah Bob it's right good.. worth gettin.. if i was you i would get 'Vice City' it's brilliant.. very very 80's it's worth it for the soundtrack (on the radio when you get in a car)

< hopes that ^'s hangover is easing.





Cat

< Thanks ^ it's pretty much gone.. however < is worried that it's coming up 1Am and < isn't even feeling slightly tired.. it may well be a long night.

At least there is good company

< is glad to hear that ^'s head is better. For insomina, < wishes that ^ could listen to an old professor's of <. That would deffinately put ^ to sleep.  :D



Cat

< has had numerous 'Teachers' over the years who have managed to put < to sleep.. < rememebrs one inspring French lesson where < was sound asleep and when the bell went to signal the end of class < fell out of his chair.

Another interesting occasion was when < was in the school Theatre and an exceptionally bad version of Macbeth was being done.. < fell asleep and near the end when the Castle is being attacked there was some loud music and < woke up with a.. "aaaarrrghhh what the F-C-U-K!" which wasn't the response hoped for from that specific scene.

LMAO @ ^






Cat

^'s Telling < that ^ never fell asleep during a Lecture?

Nope-but there were times when < had a really hard time trying to stay awake.




Cat

Don't let Carlos hear that

< could be very facetious and say that it was his class, but the truth was it wasn't but a collegue of his and Carlos (as well as other collegues of his) is well aware that students had a hard time staying awake this this guy's class.




Cat

Right..

Did said Proffesor wear Tweed and a Trillby? ;)

Who? My girlfriend?  ???


Yes.How's the wifey doing? getting along well with her? ;D


Howard

Yes.How's the wifey doing? getting along well with her? ;D


Just about.  ;D

She's had a difficult few days and she's been having a go at me for various things. One being using her birthday wrapping paper for Christmas presents. I don't know why she's moaning, it gave no indication that it was birthday wrapping paper.  ::)

I don't think some women need an excuse to moan.  ;D

Modified to add: She's not my wife just yet, Howard. I'm trying to come to terms with that one.  ;D

Correction
I don't think ANY women need an excuse to moan. ;D

Lol. Bang on.  ;D

Me thinks i might get it in the neck now  ;)
