The best-ever Christmas card I got (admittedly, some 25 yrs ago, before the e-cards became popular) came from Israel: Golden sand at the bottom, relentlessly-blue sky on top, broken by a single star pointing to a falling down, isolated (no other buildings in sight, unlike in the story), "stable"... The three kings approach on their camels... Joseph stands in front of of the stable and yells to them: "It's a goy!"

[lace-chat] :) Fwd: Windows
I may have seen this one before. It's still as funny as ever, though, so I'm forwarding. Wish my husband thought of that one, years ago, when we equipped the house with storm windows. But then... he had never been a blonde and that path of thought is not something that comes naturally to him, alas :) From: M.D. Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with an expensive double-pane energy efficient kind. Today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago, and I still hadn't paid for them. Well, helll,... just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him exactly what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves! Helllo? It's been a year! I told him. There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up. He never called back. Guess I won that stupid argument. I bet he felt like an idiot. -- Tamara P Duvallhttp://t-n-lace.net/ Lexington, Virginia, USA (Formerly of Warsaw, Poland) To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace-chat] Christmas card arrived from Dorcas
Hello Dorcas, on Saturday your pretty Christmas card arrived. I love the tatted ring. It is so special! Thank you very much! I will scan it and send the scan to be put on the website. It is great to have such an early Christmas card. I don't think I ever had one so early and a pretty handmade one, too.

[lace-chat] Anyone know how to connect to Geocities FTP server?
I have Ace FTP and have never had trouble connecting to Geocities' FTP server before (before I lost my old hard drive adn former settings), and am not having trouble connecting to the Rootsweb FTP server using the same port 21, now. I'm getting the error message host not found (authoritative). I wrote to Geocities pro support, and the tech person made two suggestions including make sure I use passive (psv) mode and use port 1080. My housemate and I opened port 1080 on the routers and I got the same error. I wrote back with screencaps and got a generic help file telling me how to connect to the ftp server for Geocities in the UK.I am NOT kidding. I have my screencaps of my ftp client setup at http://community.webshots.com/album/569002728CUMEiB Does anyone see anything I am doing wrong? I did enter the password more than once.
