PQ>Hi! Ed,

Hi Paul,

No thanks, if I wanted to listen to it I could Search for it and listen
to it.

I'm not sure if I will do that though, it might not be my style of
music.

PQ>That is a neat idea.  She was a beautiful person, with faults.

Me Too!

PQ>Wow!  That is weird.  Back in those days I was collecting fonts from any &

I like keeping old files too, so far everything I've looked at from the
past that I have put on floppies is still viewable although I've read
others say they lost everything they've had on floppys.

I noticed the O and TT ahead of the font name whenever I look at the
font list.
I don't know what the O means, and don't care as long as I like the look
of the font.

PQ> EV> Such is the love of computing!

PQ>Some days you think you have a handle on it, and then wham!  Something new
hi
PQ>you between the eyes.  :)

I'd say AMEN! to that.

Compare Windows 3.0 to what's coming now.
It's a whole new ball game.

Saturday Fall begans here, does Spring start down there Saturday too?

Hope You have a good Spring there.
