Whoa, that's funny-not-so-funny, amnow. I'll make your link clickable (hmm-reminds me of what I just read in by's post, about how we're all in such a hurry; but it is true that a lot of people here won't take the time to copy and paste a link):
http://www.adcritic.com/interactive/view.php?id=5927

It's easy to do: type these brackets--[  ] with url inside them, then put your link, then put the brackets again, but at the end put a / in front of url. Um--it's actually easier done than said . I will put the example, but I will use the brackets that come up when you use the Shift key--otherwise you couldn't see it.

Note: I have had many problems when I began a link in the middle of a line. So now I always hit Enter, then start the link cue on a new line: no problems.

You're right [lightbulb], mav, normally it does, but...?? My link works. Go figure. Hey, I wonder if that changed when we went to the new server?
Just 'cause you've become a Reverend, doesn't mean you get to levy a sin tax!!

Jackie and maverick, Thanks for the help. If you'd been looking just now, you'd have seen that I duplicated the post...and had forgotten that I'd already 'sent' the link! Yes, I'm old, and I'm losing my mind!
I had a birthday package for my son-in-law with several cards sitting in the box. The weather forecast is so dire, I decided to mail it today, so I quickly sealed the box and brought it to the PO. When I got home, I typed to my daughter..."send back any unsigned cards, and I'll use them at future appropriate times"! Did I, or did I not sign/send a birthday card? OOPS.

You forgot the last right bracket, mav'. Works like a charm if you add the bracket.
