Mother’s Day is this Sunday.  If you celebrate it, don’t forget about
it.

I received this email last week.  If you haven’t checked out my 50
Secrets of Blissful Relationships, I invite you to at:
http://www.50secrets.com

Mr. Webb,

I just finished reading “50 Secrets of Blissful Relationships.”  Of
all the dating and relationship books I have read (I have half a dozen
sitting on my bookshelf), this was one of the most helpful, easy to
read, and relatable ones.  Though I am not in complete agreement with
you on one or two issues, your brief collection of articles gave the
valuable advice, not just the kind people want to hear.  I really
appreciated how you voiced unpopular opinions on things like
pre-marital physical involvement, dating, and religious differences.
I cannot wait to read through the book with my boyfriend.  Your advice
is priceless!

Thank you again,
Stephanie Mayes

Have a blissful week.  — Michael

Screensaver Setup
by Scott Grandi
http://www.TheRomantic.com

Submitted by: Scott Grandi

Would you like to use your computer to express your love for you.
Here is how you can change your screensaver to be a declaration of
your love (on Windows at least).

A.  Set up a “screensaver” on her/his computer that tells her/him that
you love them.

1.  Left hand click on your desktop
2.  Click on “active desktop.
3.  Click on “customize my desktop”
4.  Click on “screen saver”
5.  On the screen saver screen, scroll down to the
“scrolling marquee” and highlight.
6.  Then click on setup.
7.  Type in a message of love – and modify fonts as you see fit (you can use a
font that needs to be decoded if you want to get really imaginative).

This message will show up whenever the screen saver pops on.

or…  B.  Scan a picture of your loved one and use it as the
“background” of your desktop.  (follow above instructions to step 3,
then click on “background.”)
