>>"Maybe I'll try Texas Longhorn Orange"

>Ah, the color with no rhyme.

My daughter's favorite:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Some poems rhyme
But this one doesn't

Dick, you went first, you have only yourself to blame.

Ode To Excel Redux

When last I looked Excel had crashed
It's hourglass cursor spinning

What had I done, is all lost
or was a dll just missing

"What would truly send me to heaven,
would be a row 65537?

But to what sort of lengths would you go:
have you ever considered FoxPro?

Thanks Bene. I liked the green too, but I see green everyday at work and I’m quite sick of it. Maybe I’ll try Texas Longhorn Orange.

Hey Dick- love the color green that I saw yesterday- This blue makes me feel washed out! Anyway this site seems really helpful and user friendly- I just don’t have any idea as to what you are talking about. bene

While with your thoughts I fully agree
and your rhymes are not tortured to an unreasonable degree
I'll posit that not every Tom, Dick or Peter
would go to such lengths to murder the meter
