Hello. This is kind of an “unconventional” question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you’ve got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this …so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I’ll just keep working on it one day at a time Thanks for any help you can offer here.

Comment on Despite White House theme, days numbered for ‘merry’ by Dennis R. Preston

Nathan,

Shame on you; how could you have published a piece on “merry” (which I missed in the original) without noting the “merry-marry-Mary” phenomenon, allowing such old standbys as “Everybody at the party was making merry; so Mary got up and went home.” Obviously not a joke in some dialects.

Best,

Dennis
