This would gain maximum publicity and I suggest help both of them live with their grief.

Apparently the rehearsal last night went well, it was much faster than the earlier rehearsal...I guess trying to run through it as it will be today and there were no stops for "technical delays". Robin was wearing an ivory jacket with jeans. Although the gates were slated to be open at l0:00 a.m., they were still in line as we spoke and depending on which security guard they asked it could be as late as 3:00 p.m. But, our gals our first in line and Janel and Katie are the designated "runners"...so sounds like they will get wonderful seating. Woo Hoo ~ go gals, what perserverance! Crowds were down for a while this morning due to rain, and right now it is overcast. Will pass more news on as it comes along and a Happy Fourth to those on the list who are celebrating it and a great day to those who are not. Joy :) --part1_140.2d80696d.2e198dfe_boundary-- ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 4 Jul 2004 17:52:02 +0100 From: "Linda Simons" Subject: Re: Digest (07/03/2004 09:01) (#2004-43) This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_003C_01C461EF.9CD3C9E0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Leads to connect the vcr to the computer and then software that enables = you to capture video or capture from the TV and save it on the hard = drive. ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Anne Simpson=20 To: words List Member=20 Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2004 10:31 AM Subject: [words] Digest (07/03/2004 09:01) (#2004-43) How would one do that?
