Question: Bob asks, "How do I print an email without everyone’s name on it?"

Answer: Great question. We all get email messages that are forwarded from others. Sometimes the messages have been forwarded several times before they get to us. As a result, you can have a big long list of names which if you plan on reading the message or saving a printed version, is just completely irrelevant. There are two good ways to handle this situation. First, if your email program has a print preview feature, then you can preview the message and once you know where things fall, just print out the important pages. This works best for really long messages, or maybe attachments. Second, you can just hit the reply or forward button in your email program. It doesn't matter which, because you're not really going to send the message; but when you start to reply or forward, you'll have an editable version of the message. Delete the names and just print out the edited version. Don't forget to check both the top and bottom of the message.

Cool Site: Christianity.com: Here's a site with tons of stuff to do. Christianity.com has an online Bible, devotionals, blogs, forums, chat rooms, the audio of Chuck Swindoll's Insight for Living, John MacArthur's Grace to You, Dr. David Jeremiah's Turning Point ministries and others. You can sign up for newsletters delivered via e-mail, and have those nagging questions you always wondered about answered by some of the most respected Christian leaders in America. For instance, have you ever wondered if Christians should go into politics? Set in the context of the run-up to last year’s Presidential election, Chuck Colson answers this question with a "Yes, we should". There are video answers to some of the questions, you can leave a prayer request privately and someone at Guideposts will pray for you. There are lots of study resources you can use, sermon preparation helps, and if that wasn't enough, the site even includes quizzes and games! Like I said, the site has tons of stuff to do.

Cool Gadget: Icoeye's Save Bookmark: Not everything has to be high tech or expensive. I have recently rediscovered books. Yes, actual books with physical pages. OK. Well, books need bookmarks unless they're very short. A fun bookmark is available for free at Icoeye. You just download and print out the bookmark. It has a small picture of a floppy disk on the end and the word "Save" next to it. Because after all, isn't that what a bookmark does, save your place? Check the show notes for the link to this kooky bookmark.

It's All "Geek" To Me: Hover: This week's term is hover. It means to position your mouse pointer over a link on a web page. When you hover over a link, the pointer shape changes into a little hand. Often, the link will change appearance in some way, usually by changing color. This term is in widespread usage in Internet contexts, but is gradually replacing the term "point" which means exactly the same thing, but is normally applied to hovering over icons, menus, and other things besides links.
