Yes you will.  For US, you'll do anything. and Especially if Linda asks

Did you want a heart shaped cookie too, little boy?  Have you been good?

You shoulda seen this woman wandering up and down the aisles in the
WalMart parking lot today with her basket full of prchases and a very
bewildered expression on her face.  Guess she forgot where she parked her
car (or Heaven forbit - I suppose it might have been stolen).  It really
was kinda funny to see her face as she went back and forth from one row
of cars to the next, and back again to a row she'd already done. Like ya
know,

"I'm sure I parked the car in Row C, but it doesn't seem to be there.
Maybe it was last week I parked in Row C.  Maybe it's in Row D today.
No?  Oh, well, perhaps I'll try Row B.  Not here either.  I better check
Row C again..."

I sat watching for a while but I finally had to leave.  I don't know if
she EVER found her car.  In the end, I felt really sorry for her and I
really wanted to help her, though I don't know how I could have, but
OTOH, I didn't want to embarass her by letting her know I'd been watching
her bewilderment either.

Subject: Re: Swaps

AS a hostess this would not bother me at all as long as the committment
is met by the stamper.  After all, the more people who join our
"movement" the better. Don't you think?  As long as they send all the
stuff they are supposed to, what difference does it make if they're on
the list or not.

As a stamper, especially on a list this size, I'm not even likely to
realize that someone in the swap isn't on the list, so again, what
difference does it make.

As I've been in many swaps where there were stampers included who were
not on the particular list involved and they worked through one of the
list stampers as Barb has proposed to do. We always had their
participation and obligations fulfilled.  It seems to me that if they
have enough interest to want to join a list swap, they surely would be
worth having in the swap.

As a matter of fact, I have taken my XANTH swap to both AOL and GEnie as
well as a private list, and offered them the opportunity to join too.  It
never occurred to me that someone might object to this and I didn't think
to ask permission. And indeed, as the hostess, I believe I don't NEED to
ask anyone's permission.  As a fellow swapper though, I would do as Barb
did and ask if it would be ok to bring outsiders in, but I would ask the
hostess of the specific swap they are interested in.

Subject: RE: Hello  Try this one for size

It depends where this counter is located as to whether it would work or not.
if nothing else you can use it for ou ring out counter. I think doing demos
from a long table people can either sit around or gather around would work
better for demos.Or you can use the counter for display purposes display a
stamp of the month or a display of cards that have been made by other
customers and fellow stampers to give shoppers ideas nd promote more
sales.....
Where is your store to be located???

Our "club" is so loosely formed that we don't have a name! We are just any
local stampers who are free on the first Wed. night who want to come to
what we call Share Night at our local stamp store. We can bring a project
we're working on and/or show and tell. We provide our own supplies, altho'
if we forget something the store owner will let us use her class supplies.
We stamp and talk for a couple of hours, then sometimes go out for frozen
custard. Just a nice time away and a chance to stamp.

Great deal on the pogs. I bought a bunch when Toy R US got rid of theirs. I
use them to make trading pins. I also use them for the kids party so the kids
can make their own party favors. When I bought my pogs, I also bought the pog
maker, It cut paper to fit the pogs, great to use with old wrapping paper,

My cats LOVE those spiders. They pick them up and shake them, throw them
in the air and pounce on them, toss them away and chase them, bring them
to us to play and fetch.  They never seem to tire of playing with their
Stampo Spiders.  At bedtime we have to hide them under our pillows so we
can get some sleep.

Every now and then one gets lost.  Then, whether or not I need stamping
supplies I have to place an order with Stampo, just so I can get more
spiders and flies.  Don't you feel sorry for poor me.  Just imagine
having to order from Stampo.. tssk tssk tssk,  poor lil ole me.

Subject: Re: TAN: juno's inbox capacity?

Sue ,

Those messages are in the JUNO directory on YOUR PC. Not on Juno's server
anymore.  The limit for your INBOX is probably related to the size of
your Hard Drive's unused space or the size file your program (even Juno's
inbox) can handle.

For example.  If I want to look at my inbox using a WINDOWS editing
program like Notebook or Write, when there are lots of messages in there,
the file is too big, then Notebook won't/can't open the file, while Write
can and Juno, obviously can.

But the original question was how many messages before the JUNO MAILbox
(not your personal inbox) gets full, and this question refers to the JUNO
server mailbox (where they sit between the time other people send them to
you and the time you download them), and how many can wait there for
distribtion.

So far, we haven't discovered a limit.  Not to say that there isn't one,
just that so far, no one that we know has reached it.
