 1) Click on the graphic to open the Calendar. 2) Once there you can click on any month and even click to the right to go into next year. Once you are in the month that you joined FR you will need to click on the number in the calendar and then an add item screen will come up. 3) In the next box enter your name in the "Calendar Text" field and then click on submit. 4) If any of the screens fail to load simply click on refresh in your browser and that will usually fix it. 5) If all else fails or simply if you want me to do this for you send me an FReepmail and I will gladly do it for you. ~Mixer |

Howdy!
OMG, Nan, if there IS a correlation between sin and sickness, I'm going to come down with the Bubonic Plague for that one!
Uh, think about who else we know. My brain hurts when I consider some of them as my sanity link.

Just keep pingin' me and sooner or later I'll show up!
It's good to be among the smiling faces again.
Love Canal is a neighbourhood in Niagara Falls, New York. The nickname "Love Canal" came from the last name of William Love who in 1896 began digging a canal connecting Lake Ontario and Lake Erie (bypassing Niagara Falls) in order to serve as a water power conduit. It was never completed but the Hooker Chemical Company, located west of the canal, had the ingenious idea of turning the uncompleted canal into a dumping ground for the chemical by-products of its manufacturing process.
Once the canal was filled with waste, the land was covered over and sold to the Niagara Falls city school board for $1.00 and a school and subdivision of homes was built right on top of the waste.
The chemicals were detected leaking out of the site in 1977 and many health problems were also reported. Residents were evacuated after a lengthy fight with the New York State government. Today, it remains a ghost town. The main dump site is fenced in (with a school and many homes bulldozed over and buried in the ground with the waste). Over the rest of the area of crumbling, dilapidated homes hangs a gaunt, eerie silence, reminding visitors of the spectre that hazardous waste poses in our modern society.
How perfectly fitting that it was the Hooker Chemical Company who started this debacle for dipwad algore to claim to have discovered. ;-)
Getting in a few Hellos and {{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}} before my 1:30 meeting.
