BTW, the number of posts on a page is user-definable. If you want. The default value is 10, putting you on P. 27 after 270 posts. If you go to MyStuff>Edit Preferences>[down ten options] you can make a page be any number of posts up to 99; after doing that, the same 270 posts puts me only 3/4 of the way through page 3!

BELLS
HEAR the sledges with the bells,
Silver bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night!
While the stars, that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With a crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells—
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells

The My-Oh-My bar was a disaster
But the Green Parrot was a blaster
We went back the next night and had a S -> L

Oh noooo...that endy beat me by an hour. Again my peers

Endy, it looks like you and I ran into the same problem
you and JJ ran into.
Either you can play with teaser or we could give the
next person the choice:

TABLES OR TEASER


what say you?

Ideally I'd like to be ever so diplomatic and post one word that could have come from either of them.

Too bad. No can do with ABLEST and EASTER. But the're different!
