Thanks, Jeff & Karen--Glad the board is open

Thank you both for keeping the board open. I can`t think of a less thankless job. My hat`s off to anyone who has the stamina to do it and will put up with the abuse.

I stumbled across JF`s column when helping my better half look forinfo on home hair coloring. I can`t say that keeping track of celebrity hairstyles or other doings is high on my priority list (about up there with cleaning the lint out of my sock drawer), but I was so tickled by his choice of words, turn of phrase and analyses of celebrity foibles that I haven`t missed a column since. After all, how many people do YOU know who can use "fol-de-rol" in a sentence? And the comments on this board are often just about as lively.

Hope you all can keep it going and find a replacement. Thanks again to both of you for the hard work.
