I just saw it tonight. I liked it, but the book was much funnier (especially the audio version read by Adams himself). They did a pretty good job though. Weyrwoman

Hi S.O. I wrote a message to you, but I'm having problems with AQ mail. If you didn't receive it, please write to me at: AnnaFerhanna@aol.com Thanks! Sits N Knits

Has anybody else been having problems with AQ today? I went to my mail box, tried to answer a letter, clicked send, and got a page of gibberish. The same thing happened when I sent a post to the "Postal letterboxing" message board. I wouldn't be sup...

Quote Do you really want to restrict it to Premium Members? Ryan, I think that the restriction may hamper the project. Very probably most folks that haven't become Premium Members yet may not know that their membership has certain benefits. BTW we wil...

Went to McGalliard Falls in Valdese today and I have got to tell you this was by far the hardest I've ever had to WORK to get a box in my VERY short Lbing life. ok, well it probably is no biggie for a fit 20 year old gal or guy but for a fat 38 year o...
Board: Traditional Letterboxes
While Connecticut is the 48th largest state, according to land, (3rd smallest) in the country, Florida (where I live) is the 26th largest. In the number of letterboxes, CT ranks #1 and FL is #18. Now that may be a little amazing, possibly just inter...
Board: Traditional Letterboxes
Yes, that is one way to look at it... I remember thinking the same thing when I first found out about letterboxing -- all those boxes in that little bitty state and the nearest box to me here in MI at the time was 90 miles away! But it didn't take me...

Quote Oh, the planting opportunities that awaited me! If you plant it, they will come ;-) I exchanged receintly with TJMich. They showed me their collection of SpringChick stamps in their log book. Don't know when I'll get a chance to get up to MI....

Hiya! Yep, I got your messages. After Teepsman sent me your address as my send to buddy, you sent me your Orlando address right afterwards. I responded, but if AQ is acting up, you probably didn't see them :( The stamp went out in the mail this mo...

I don't think it's fixed all the way. I just updated my favorite boards, and now all the messages on my older and newer favorites are listed as new. I clicked around and one of them reset, but I don't remember what I did. When I updated the favorite...

While trying to figure out (unsuccessfully I might add) how to make one link on a web page a different color from all the rest, I discovered that my website's home page displays weirdly on Safari. The webring navbar and counter are at the top of the p...

Hi there! We just returned from NS, and can report that there are only 4 boxes (we found 3). HOWEVER, as promised, we left a few items on Capr Breton Island. I will shortly be posting the clues for the boxes. Cheers, Pete aka Jiggs P25 F321 X72 E5...

I don't know when it will be possible for me. I'm due July 9th, so if I can't get up there before then, it will be a while. I'll look into it though. Weyrwoman

Thank you ShadowSpirit and Ryan for telling me how to do the specific link color. :-) Quote The HTML code looks awfully complicated (and therefore, more prone to error). Yeah, that's because computer D'oh people like me need programs that do all the...

Just as an FYI, please, if you host clues elsewhere such as LbNA, do not type www.letterboxing.org as the URL for the clue. That's the website of the clue, not the page with the clue, and it can frustrate people to click on what the think is the clue t...

Rumor has it that Paul Newman and Robert Redford are planning to turn Bryson's A Walk In the Woods into a movie! Redford would play Bryson and Newman would play his good buddy, Katz. I'd think this was an April Fool joke except that, well, it's not Ap...

Quote Paul Newman and Robert Redford are planning to turn Bryson's A Walk In the Woods into a movie Wow! That is truly amazing. And Julia Roberts, too! I loved Bryson's book and thought that many of the observations were spot-on. I never quite und...

Quote I never quite understood why it generated so much controversy in the hiking community. I never saw the harm in Bryson's book either, though I know it's a sore subject for many thru-hikers. I saw a T-shirt that read "Bryson is a candy ass". Whic...
Board: Reading Room
Yes, I don't see Redford and Newman cast all that well in it. Too old, perhaps? I just can't see Newman with a bunch of 'extra baggage' on him. Could prove to be an interesting film, though. Wonder if it would appeal to the masses, though? dvn2r ckr

I thought since were discussing books made into movies, that I'd share my thoughts on this one. Bear with me. If anyone has read the HH series, you know how brilliantly mad Douglas Adams was. I don't feel that it came through in the movie. The prob...
