  • So Much to Learn...

    did you know...




    ...that a U.S. passport, even if it has expired, still qualifies for renewal up to 10 years after its expiration date? If you are planning an overseas trip soon and need to renew your passport pronto, contact these folks: RushMyPassport.com I used them to renew my own passport recently, and they are terrific. I got what I ordered, on time, as promised.




    ...that the American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote standing up? Yes, it is true. He also used a legendary notebook called the Moleskine, a simple black modest book that has been used by artists and writers for centuries. Moleskine journals help in daily life, work and play, at home and traveling the world. I have used Moleskin Notebooks for years. I always feel rich when I have a fresh new Moleskin notebook ready to be filled with notes, reminders, thoughts and more. Get a Moleskin Notebook.

    CSS will help you create external stylesheets for consistency of pages and easier maintenance of your site. You can create great layouts without the use of tables.
