Ctrl-Clicking on the link does the same thing. @:-)

I've always used Ctrl-click in Word and never on the Web itself. New shortcuts every day.

I taught my mother how to book HHonors reward stays by herself (read: without my help) today. Now to see if said knowledge sticks...my Magic 8-Ball says "Not a chance in hell".

Eloquent might be the wrong word. I'm having trouble getting it into any usable format. :(

As much of a cop-out as it could be, Word templates might be a source of help.

I expect that to be much like Tio Pepe's in Baltimore, with which I am familiar. And my goal was 200 by the end of the year, which is ^

My Magic 8-Ball says "Outlook Cloudy". I must have the officially-licensed one.

MSN's website had a text ad for Ruth's Chris and the "Greatest Steak Ever". Fortunately, ABP was able to handle the text ad.

Steak, with globs of herby rotten butter on top. :rolleyes:

My understanding of this was that they would not insure two people having different plans from the same insurance company. All our stuff is separate, so hopefully we won't run into issues. There was never a place to specify if a spouse was covered under another plan so... :confused:

Anywho, I just ordered our new dining room chairs to go with the table my Dad and I sanded and refinished a few weeks ago. In this order, I also included a Wii for my wife as a Christmas present. Let us hope she doesn't figure it out this year (or start reading FT...).

Agreed. Ruth's Chris has a pretty good cut of meat but they ruin it by slathering it in awful butter.

Playing some of the Wii Resort games helped pass a recent weekend where others had food poisoning ...

Despite that I have six books that are purchased and yet to be read, I wonder if I shouldn't order more from my B&N wishlist just to get the list down into reasonable territory. There are 19 titles on it right now, and some of them have been on there so long that I added titles as hardcovers that are now out in paperback.

Enormous portions of great food with lots of wine to wash it down does not contribute very much to loss of weight. This is indeed a problem with which I am well acquainted.

Is there a non airport Newark DO going on?

And further completely ruin it by serving it on a sizzling platter which continues to cook it so that it is nearly impossible to get the entire steak blood rare. :td:

There is a hockey game at the new rink on 12/12 that some of us are attending but first stopping in at DPs for dinner.

Even if you don't like hockey, come on up and have dinner with us.

If you ever come to TN, I am given free books weekly :p

The insurance companies utilise a "coordination of benefits" scheme. If you are both covered by carrier A, they generally use the "birthday rule" (whoever has the earliest birthday in the calendar year between you and your spouse) to determine whose coverage pays. Not sure exactly how it works when there are different carriers involved, but I am sure there is some split between carrier A and carrier B. Maybe it uses the same formula as EUA? :D
