ReplyDeleteI think there are whitecaps on our swimming pool--very very windy!
ReplyDeleteThis is HANK: Any Jungle Reds out there who can manage to take out all the white spaces in this post, feel free..I've battled the formatting for hours now..and finally..gave up.
ReplyDeleteThink of it as..suspense?
Hi Hank.
ReplyDeleteTook a look at the page source for the post and there are a lot of:
< br />
< br />< div>< /div>
< br />
< br />< div>< /div>
< br />
< br />
in there. The < br> coding is what is giving the white space. It adds a line. If you take those out you'll have less white space. I had to put spaces in the < br> and < div> because Blogger accepts HTML tags and was putting in actual spaces in my comment.
Oh, BRILLIANT!! Thank you. I thought I had taken out all the stupid divs, but they just reappeared and ah...so frustrating. Anyway, now it's a little wacky, because I'm sure I altered a magic < or a > or something, sigh. But you get the picture!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cindy!
Survived Irene. It reminded me of having lived in New Orleans some 20+ years ago. Today is a beautiful day - sunshine and blue sky. Hope everyone else is safe, too.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting a lot of rain and have been since very early this morning so we put streaks in The Kid's hair. Sadly, I couldn't convince her dad to let me do his.
ReplyDeleteWe lucked out with Irene, even though the eye of "Irene Lite" passed back over land about 60 miles west of us. Still, no water in the basement. No loss of power. No trees down in or near our yard. We feel lucky and humble.
ReplyDeleteYeah, lots of finger-crossing going on...
ReplyDeleteSpent the weekend in San Antonio and, like Houston, it was 109 and dry. So, fortunately, haven't had to deal with Irene (wish you could package up some of the water and send it our way!). But having survived Ike (and 17 days w/o power), my thoughts are with all the folks affected by Irene!
ReplyDeleteSafe. Irene turned out not to be so bad in Queens, NY. But I stayed awake most of the night changing towels under the new leak that sprung right near the window. Noticed this morning that the leak has been building for a while. My window sill seems to be moving away from the wall!
ReplyDeleteOh, Shizuka, good luck to you! Hope that turns out okay.
ReplyDeleteNancy, thanks..whew, that must have been a mess.
This has been a week for rejoicing that I live in the scenic, and currently sunny Northwest.
ReplyDeleteI finally got my power and Internet back. Seems like we got one and then the other went out.
ReplyDeleteNo damage but tossed all the food in fridge and freezer.
