Keith, that is a great story! Thanks for telling it. You see, you never know
where
something will lead, and here, my association with Joe has brought you to me.
Now who
knows what our association could bring?

My site is up and running. I just checked. It almost never crashes, so if that
ever
happens again, just come back soon and it will probably be up again.

I did already check out The Recipe Family and found it to be a very cool site.
I'll have
to spend more time there to really check it out soon.
