LOL
I hope to see some familiar names around here.

I think that's called plagiarism, Vickie, if you present it as your own
writing.

Yep! ;-)
Plagerism is ok as long as you remember to call it "research" AND credit
your sources!!!

I always give the source of my information, and quite often a link if I
have gotten it from a website or other newsletter. I also ask before I
do it. Sometimes I add my own notes and say "Vickie's Notes" I write a
lot myself too. One is a Frugal Column and the other is Tips and hints.
With the tips and hints, I get the same tips frommmm so many different
sources it is hard to find where it originated

If you basically never follow a recipe, I guess you're a genius in my
book. <G>. Welcome back.

Yup, that IS a problem. I found out long ago that this wonderful cake
recipe I have that "I got from my neighbor" was a Pillsbury Bake-Off
finalist or winner or something.

Gee golly. for a minute I thought you were going to say you had found new life in
Jesus Christ or something, like that idiot who spams every group in the world with
his heaven information.

Hey, Miche. Can't find a meaning for your anagram "WWMVD". Did you
make it up? Or?

Naw, I'm pretty sure that Vickie is an atheist.

Possible my notation is wrong about how it placed, but it was a Bake-Off
offering. May not have placed. Pity.

Well, for a second I thought the cross-posting shit was getting out of
hand - then I noticed you're not cross-posting. I guess you're all
right <G>.

Plagiarize!
Let no one else's work evade your eyes!
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes,
So don't shade your eyes,
But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize!
(Remembering to always call it, please, "research")
