Number 7 cracked me up the most!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog. To answer your question, my fab layout (it's new and I'm still excited about it) is one of the free templates on BTemplates.com. Here's the URL for the page I grabbed mine from: http://btemplates.com/blogger-templates/3-columns/page/7/<br /><br />It was a royal pain in the @$$ to personalize my banner, but I'm an avid Paint Shop Pro junkie and know how to get inside the HTML coding and monkey with it...and I'm stubborn enough to devote an entire day to the task. (It would have taken less time, actually, if the Blogger Mice hadn't been chewing the cyber lines that day...) Other than that, the actual template was very easy to install and format, probably the easiest I've ever attempted. I thought the three column layout would be hard to work with, but the template is very user friendly.<br /><br />Thanks for asking and I'm glad you like it! Have a wonderful Easter weekend!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899768909313326172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852800943772489474.post-73807515408759865172010-04-03T03:14:58.352-07:002010-04-03T03:14:58.352-07:00Great post - made me smile :-)Great post - made me smile :-)K M Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801740095715755112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852800943772489474.post-12926136749262284002010-04-02T20:01:28.739-07:002010-04-02T20:01:28.739-07:00I loved that line in in two, a little cheese with ...I loved that line in in two, a little cheese with your whine.
