Some have wondered why I havent been announcing my media appearances like I used to do.  I have pretty much been declining all radio/tv interviews for the past year or so (with the exception of Oprah),
although I must still get 3 requests a week to do a television or
radio show.  What’s the point of being a popular relationship expert
if you don’t actually spend time with your family, living what you
talk about.

Have a family focused week.  — Michael

Last week’s contest was on BREAKFAST IN BED.  About 10 great stories
came in.

If you want to enter the contests it would be helpful to know what
type of stories make it to the site (and ultimately win).  I do not
post “this is what I plan on doing some day” entries.  Anyone can come
up with a great idea.  It takes a special person to actually put it
into action.  The stories read better that way too.

The winning Breakfast In Bed story comes from Taylor Smith entitled
*Breakfast and the Waitress In Bed*.  You can read all the great ideas
here:http://theromantic.com/stories/breakfast/main.htm

This week’s contest is a GUESSING GAME.  Athena, Ashton and I will be
leaving mid-August to stay in the Caribbean for a month.  We’ll be
relaxing and I’ll be working on my 8th book, which I have been
researching for some time now.

Guess which island we will be staying on.  Hint: it is NOT one of the
more popular ones.  In fact, my guess is that most people haven’t
heard of it.  If no one guesses it correctly, the closest by geography
will win.

The winning entry will win a trip through TheRomantic.com’s ever
growing PRIZE VAULT is filled with books, several board games
including Romantic Sensations, An Enchanting Evening and others, CDs,
dance lessons and other fun stuff at

Love Is Only a Page Away
by Michael Webb
http://www.TheRomantic.com

Do you or your sweetheart carry a phone/pager?  I carried one for
several years.  It certainly can be a nuisance at times.  However, it
can also be one more way to let someone know you are thinking of your
sweetheart.

Recently, alpha-numeric pagers/phones have been becoming increasingly
popular.  You can simply type in a message and the pager will
automatically display it.  On the other hand, numbers only pagers
require a little more creativity in sending over “love messages.”

As you probably know, numbers look like certain letters when held
upside down.  One of the more well known words is 07734 (hello).  You
can also type in 143, 1 for letter I, 4 to signify the number of
letters in LOVE and 3 for the letters in YOU.

Here are a few others for you to try out on your sweetheart.

5376616 (GIGGLES)
53551,5604 (HOGS & ISSES)
372215 (SIZZLE)
55178 (BLISS)
14 (HI)
5637 (LEGS)
55378 (BLESS)
