Geez, only Bill Gates could have foreseen the excitement that underlined, bold, and italics fonts could create.

I wish I had something new to teach every day, but I would be fresh out of topics tomorrow. Maybe you guys can teach me something everyday. :idontno:

Lindsay Lohan claims that she misquoted herself in Vanity Fair and she did in fact not suffer from bulemia.

How's that for something new? Or do you want it to be valuable? :idontno:

I am more of a factual, non-popcultural kind of guy, but I will take what I can get. Perhaps you should first tell me who is Lindsay Lohan.:idontno:

No way!?

Fact: Croched bikinis are on sale right now at Scoop. Meaning you better get to knitting.

Have you set your User CP options to WYSIWYG?
If so, highlight the text you want to be bold and use the cntl "b" feature which I mentioned earlier. Do you know how to click and drag to highlight the text?

Highlighting isn't a problem but when I do the cnrl b I get a box with xxx in it.

I don't know if my User CP options are set to WYSIWYG - How can I tell?

To set your options to WYSIWYG.
Go to "user cp"
"edit options"
scroll to bottom to Misc Options and you will see several choices from which to choose
select "Enhanced Interfaced - Full WYSIWYG Editing" (WYSIWYG = what you see is what you get.)

But did you catch my pink font color in another post?

And did you catch the Lindsay Lohan photo in Newsweek where she was so thin, you couldn't see her sideways. Drugs could only produce that degree of smallness from someone who was chubby a couple of years back, IMHO.

I loved telling Bdarg, in a very matter-of-fact way, what WYSIWYG stands for!:biggrin:


Lindsey Lohan and her peeps (including her mother) all need a good spanking IMHO. What a bunch! Wonder if they understand the concept of "crash and burn". "Downward spiral". "Liar liar pants on fire." It's sad to be 19 years old with the looks of a middle aged over-partied woman. She used to be cute.

SJ...I give you a big FAT pat on the back for trying to keep tangents out of these threads!!! You are a very brave and fearless man to take this on. Just bring it to our attention when you see it....I am afraid women were born to TANGETIZE!!!! Is that the correct usage....jdarg?

My nickname could be mr. tangent, but that is another story. Kurt is so right that people trying to actually find valuable info from posts will be lost, and we will have to repeat the same old thing when they wonder where the car wash is located. There are always new posters coming on board, and it is much easier for them to join in, if there is logic in the threads. Currently, the instruction manuel should read more like, "To see what is behind Door A, peek behind Doors, C, F, G, Z, X, and maybe Y, and if you don't find the answer, you may want to check Doors K, M and O."

Many of you know, but for those of you who don't, you can search a key word to find all the post or threads containing that key word.

Sorry about that. I thought about checking the spelling on that word, because it did not look correct, but then I thought, why bother? They will just think that I have been hanging out with RiverOtter. :D
