The reminder worked like a charm as the woman discovered that she had lost ten pounds in the first month of using this method. The downside to this was that her husband spent so much time going into the fridge to look at the picture that he ended up gaining fifteen pounds! ___________________________________________________ BAKED STUFFED CHICKEN 6-7 lb. chicken 1 cup melted butter 1 cup stuffing 1 cup uncooked popcorn salt/pepper to taste small palstic bag and duck tape Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

It's just pictures and some simple web pages with mostly just text about our seniors club. What complicates it is that various members want to have the ability to upload stuff without having to go through me. Fran Dear Fran There used to be dozens of uploaders, but Filezilla beat them all. It is simple and easy, and 100% predictable. You get it at Filezilla I have used it for about 30 years and never had a problem with it. With Filezilla, the same as with ANY uploader, you have to INSIST that anybody, who wants to upload anything, first download what is up there to their computer, edit and update that, and THEN upload the edited version. If they don't do that, then they trash all previous versions. You will have to be the big meanie and change the password whenever somebody trashes the old, existing vesion by just barfing new stuff up there and not edit the existing stuff. It is also a good idea that you periodically download your site and save it with a name indicating the date or version, so that when somebody messes up, you have a safety copy. That applies to ALL uploaders, not just Filezilla. Have FUN! DearWebby Walking up to a department store's fabric counter, a pretty girl asked: "I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?" "Only a kiss a yard, " replied the smirking male clerk. "That's fine," replied the girl. "I'll take ten yards." With expectation and anticipation written all over his face, the clerk hurriedly measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly. The girl snapped up the package and pointed to a little old lady standing beside her. "Grandma will pay the bill," she smiled.

The father was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decides that if she is old enough to ask the question, then she is old enough to get a straight answer. He proceeded to tell her all about the "birds and the bees". When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open. The father asked her, "Why did you ask this question?" The little girl replied, "Mom told me to tell you that dinner would be ready in just a couple of secs." ______________________________________________ Colonel Jack: What's your name, driver?

On his first day things were going great until he arrived at one house and noticed there was no wheelie bin out the front. Neville thought to himself, "I wanna do a good job and not get fired from here but if they find out I missed one house then I will get fired." So he went up to the door and knocked on it. To his surprise it was a fellow Aborigine who answered. Neville breathed a sigh of relief and said to the other bloke, "Where's ya bin?" The man replied, "I bin on 'olidays," Neville then said, "Na, maite, where's ya BIN?" "I bin on 'olidays I tell ya," was the reply. Neville, slightly frustrated, says, "Na, ya blimey idiot. Where's ya Wheelie Bin?" The other bloke looked round to see who might be listening. "Well," he said.
