Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!
O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.
O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.
O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Hmm, I didn't explain it well. First, there's a "<", then the words "font color=white", then a ">". Then you type your text. After that, there's a "<", a "/font", and a ">". Make sure there are no spaces between the brackets and the tags (or commands) they enclose.
Heh, I'm not sure that made it any more clear.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Test Our setting must be wierd. It works on our computer if we leave the spaces in. OB will be so pleased I've written it down for further reference. LSA
To: HairOfTheDog
Sure.
And I just remembered I never did bring over the ear stuff...I'll grab that, too.
To: osagebowman
Heh, well, whatever you did in that message worked! ;-)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
For example:
<font color="blue">And the text following comes out in a color. You turn the color off with a generic </font>, and you go back to the default color, black.

Tricksey, she is!
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
You like it ...!
To: Rose in RoseBear
Well, yeah.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Thanks for your patience!! We just don't use this stuff enough to get it down pat, and it is really frustrating when you want to do it but can't remember exactly how it goes, because instruction to a computer have to be right or you can't get the desired result and OB is one of those people with that wierd electrical auora that tends to screw up electronic equipment from time to time, so you just never know what the problem is.

Wow, Malcolm McDowell looks *old*.
To: JenB
Why, thank you! :-)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Oh man!! THAT's who it was!! I knew that he looked awfully familiar!!
John and I usually watch "24", after we've DVR'd it so that I can cut out the commercials. Then Joseph and I watch "Heroes" after that. I've enjoyed "Heroes" a lot!

Now I'm trying to figure out who the actor who played the dead Russian guy who tried to help Jack was. He looks awfully familiar, but I can't place him.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Heh, you are. It's fun freeping in pairs, isn't it?

You guys are silly :-)Yes, yes, we are!
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
I checked the IMDB website, but they don't give any of the other characters' names. He did look a little familiar, but I'll have to go back and watch it again.
