I can easily do it with these categories. I just, uh, never looked at your

I didn't go through it for links. I could link just about anything, as you
might imagine. I'd say to wait until the messages are archived, then I'll
link them. Of course, that means that things that don't get archived now,
we'd have to RElink when they DO get archived. I dunno, maybe that's too
much trouble.

I'll do that one next. I'm in final rehearsals for a show right now so my
evenings and weekends are shot. I did that page last night between my son's
birthday party and doing laundry into the wee hours, bur I'm not sure I can
get another page finished until maybe tomorrow. I just want VERY much to get
this set.
