Ophelia, do you have an icon posted for yourself now? If you don't, perhaps
someone will help you post one if you don't mind giving your address; I
don't know if some aren't posting because of keeping aneminity (sp?).
If you do have an address posted already, I think you can post two -- I
don't think there is a rule against posting more than once, but I may be
wrong.
Help, Administrator! Help.

You can post more than one....I sure did, as I have a permanent
address in Idyllwild, CA, and I travel for a living. I put my
temporary address up as well.

Let us know if you need help.

I'm still trying to get to Scotland! A friend of mine mailed me a packet of
information about places to visit, B&B's, pubs, etc. I wouldn't know of any
relatives there since my family came to the U.S. too many years ago but it's
still #1 on my places to visit.

I bought my parents the video of Casablanca... can you believe my (then) 73
year old mother had never *ever* seen that film?? OMG! One day last year I
called her on the phone and she was all like, you're interrupting us, we're
watching 'Casablanca'. LOL Oh, pardon me!

In my dreams, plop me down in Ricks. Everyone loves Ricks.

Tee hee hee. Very funny Wayne. And by the way, even though
Pittsburg (sic) doesn't exist anymore, it still has an *h* at
the end. :-)

It's disappearing letter by letter, Kate. :-) Having lived in Cleveland for
over 43 years, I do know about the "h" in Pittsburgh. Must be my fingeres.

BTW, did you know that Cleveland used to have another "a" in it?
{Cleaveland} It was originally named for General Moses Cleaveland, but later
changed. The stories vary as to why.

Oooooo yes, that sounds tasty! One of the best meals I had in Europe
last time was in Belgium, in a tiny little restaurant in Brugges. We
got lost :-) and this was obviously a family-not-a-tourist
restaurant. It was wonderful. A couple of women dining near us heard
us wondering aloud how we would ever get back to the hotel, and
offered to take us there. I have very fond memories of Belgium!

There is another movie (1938 black and white) that we watched a couple of
nights ago, (Algiers) which has some of that intrigue of Casablanca which
starred Charles Boyer and Hedy Lamarr - two beauties of cinema.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0029855/
"Beautiful Gaby meets a romantic jewel thief in the mysterious Casbah." and
"User comments: Almost as classic as Casablanca."
But, I prefer Casablanca.
