We have been waiting for 2 Christmas Cards containing family photos to arrive

from various family members back home. We thought they were delayed a

little

with all the Christmas mail this time of year.... but it is now January 2nd.

So ... we felt we were waiting a little TOO long so our family that sent the

photos and merchandise credits - from Newfoundland - found the receipts and went back to the stores to have the envelopes tracked. All the cards have been used, in

Ottawa, on December 18th.

There were 2 envelopes. One containing 4 photos and 2 merchandise credits - one for

Chapters, and one for FutureShop. There was another envelope with a gift certificate for  Chapters. The Chapters merchandise credits were used at

Bank Street location. The FutureShop one  on Merivale Road.

Since our mailbox is locked, and there is only one key (mine) - who took

these gifts??? Stealing mail is a federal offense. My bf just called Canada

Post and we  have a file number now with their Investigations department for

what good that will do. He  is also working with Future Shop on Merivale Road - they may have a way that we can narrow down the person.

On another note, we did receive a few HBC gift cards successfully

through the mail, so go figure.

*Sigh*

Happy New Year All!

Help. I am trying to setup a golf spreadsheet that contains two

worksheets. The first worksheet displays team numbers with the score

several columns to the right. the second worksheet summarizes the

information by displaying the team number and the score for the given

team number sorted by score.

second worksheet that looks at the first worksheet , finds a particular

team number in column A for instance, and then displays the score for

that team which is contained several columns to the right. For

example, worksheet 1 looks similar to the following:

A B C

TEAM NAME SCORE

15 Bill/Bob 22.5

7 Rob/Gil 17

On spreadsheet 2, I would like to have a formula that finds team 15 in

column A and display the score that is contained in column C.

I tried the lookup function and it works for some teams and not others.

After reading Excel help, I think it is because lookup will find a

value that is equal to or less than the value I have given for the team

number. In any event, it did not work for me. Keep in mind that each

week the scheduled matchups change, and as a result the team numbers on

worksheet 1 will fall on different rows from week to week. The columns

for team number and score remain the same each week.

Does anyone know what formula, if any, can accomplish this for me?

Thanks in advance.

PS - sorry, I couldn't get the columns to line up correctly in my

example above.

Hi RTCNers,

I have another question. I sometimes hate when I get stitching "ideas" because

I never follow through completely on them.

Anyway, I was toying with the idea of doing little gift tags for all my friends

for Christmas when I remembered seeing little sachet bags for sale at Michaels.

I couldn't remember who made them or what they called them, because online

searches have yielded very very little. My mother showed me some of her

spice/tea/sachet bags she buys from various catalogs made from muslin.

So my question is twofold:

A) Who makes the stitchable sachet bags?

B) Is the muslin stitchable? It looks even enough, but I might worry about DMC

being too thick for the holes.

Rule #1: When in doubt -- buy him a cordless drill. It does not matter if he

already has one. I have a friend who owns 17, and he has yet to complain. As

a man, you can never have too many cordless drills. No one knows why.

Rule #2: If you cannot afford a cordless drill, buy him anything with the

word ratchet or socket in it. Men love saying those two words. "Hey, George,

can I borrow your ratchet?" "Okay. By the way, are you through with my 3/8"

socket yet?" Again, no one knows why.

Rule #3: If you are really, really broke, buy him anything for his car. A 99

cent ice scraper, a small bottle of de-icer or something to hang from his

rear view mirror. Men love gifts for their cars. No one knows why.

Rule #4: Do not buy men socks. Do not buy men ties. And never buy men

bathrobes. I was told that if God had wanted men to wear bathrobes, he would

not have invented jockey shorts.

Rule #5: You can buy men new remote controls to replace the ones they have

worn out. If you have a lot of money buy your man a big screen TV with the

little picture in the corner. Watch him go wild as he flips and flips and

flips. Forget the program, your entertainment is watching him have fun!

Rule #7: Do not buy any man industrial sized canisters of after shave or

deodorant. Men do not stink -- they are earthy.

Rule #8: Buy men label makers. Almost as good as cordless drills. Within a

couple of weeks there will be labels absolutely everywhere. "Socks. Shorts.

Cups. Saucers. Door. Lock. Sink." You get the idea. No one knows why.

Rule #9: Never buy a man anything and then tell him he should read the

instructions because the box says "some assembly required". It will ruin his

Special Day. He will always have parts left over.

Rule #10: Good places to shop for men include Northwest Iron Works, Parr

Lumber, Home Depot, John Deere, Valley RV Center, Menards, Fleet Farms, and

Lees Schwab Tire. NAPA Auto Parts and Sear's Clearance Centers are also

excellent men's stores. It doesn't matter if he doesn't know what it is.

From NAPA Auto, eh? Must be something I need. Hey! Isn't this a starter for

a '68 Ford Fairlane? Wow! Thanks."

Rule #11: Men enjoy danger. That's why they never cook. But, they will

barbecue. Get him a giant gas grill with a 100 pound propane tank. Tell him

the gas line leaks. "Oh, the thrill! The challenge! Who wants a hamburger?"

Rule #12: Tickets to a Dodgers game are a smart gift. However, he will not

appreciate tickets to "A Retrospective of 19th Century Quilts." Everyone

knows why.

Rule #13: Men love chain saws. Never, ever, buy the man you love a chain

saw. If you don't know why, please refer to Rule #8 (Remember what happens

when he gets a label maker?)

Rule #14: It's hard to beat a really good wheelbarrow or an aluminum

extension ladder. Never buy a real man a stepladder. It must be an extension

ladder. No one knows why.

Rule #15: Rope. Men love rope. It takes us back to our cowboy origins, or at

least the Boy Scouts. Nothing says "I love you" like a hundred feet of 3/8"

manila rope. No one knows why. (AGS note: I prefer the 1/2" miulti-colored

poly rope.)

Rule #16 NASCAR. Men love racing. Season passes if you are rich would make a

nice gift...at least it gets the man out of the house 36 weekends a year...

RULE #17: Tarps. Men love tarps. Big ones - at least 10 x 12 feet. Helps

haul the leaves out to the street. Make sure it is green or brown to remind

him of the batchelor pad days with brown carpeting and green table cloths.Hey Holly,

Good morning. Back to the grindstone. The weekend was good. My

kids have a jamming social life -- ha ha -- so I drove them around to

2 birthday parties and a sleepover and a soccer game. Not much rest

for me.

Tim is out of town on business, too, so it was that much busier.

I'm up for joining the gym, just let me know the details. You are

talking about the Crunch on East Lakeworth Drive, by Target and TGI

Fridays, right?

I gotta run. Taxi Time!

Smiles,

Tina

Subject: Hey -- Weekend and Gym

Hey Tina. Good morning. How was your weekend? Did you do anything

fun & exciting?

Kyle and I went down to San Diego on Friday afternoon. Hung out in

San Diego all weekend, doing tourist stuff, like the zoo and some of

the shops.

We went to the beach, but didn't go in the water of course, but it's

way too cold this time of year. :) We had fun. It was good to get

out of the city.

We left the kids with a nanny so it was a parents weekend. =)

Anyways, I am planning on joining the gym here in L.A. I spoke to

the manager and asked if they give group discounts. He told me I got

myself and five friends to join, he would give us $10 off per month.

I don't know if you already belong or want to join, but thought I

would ask.

There are five of us so far. It's

1. Kelly Perkins

2. Lydia Thompson

3. Jane Jardina

4. Missy Erikkson

and myself, of course

Well, let me know. Either way, no worries. Give me a call later.

Have a good week,

Holly
