OK NumisEd, can you please explain how you were able to keep 3 straight columns, no matter the length of the first word of each line?

Before the two columns, I use the html tag "code" (encased in square bracklets). Then, the space in between the two columns is set by using one- or two-tabs characters "amparsand amparsand pound nine" (the sequence of characters, no spaces). Finally, the list is ended with the html tag "/code" (encased in square bracklets).

I have no idea of how to figure this one out, but I do like the Franklin and my name is Ben, so I'm going to try with a random weight and hope for the best.

I'll say 4 pounds, 10 ounces

I'm also doing random numbers on tonight's PowerBall lottery.

Next Drawing - Mon, Oct 31
Estimated Jackpot
$1 Billion
Cash Value: $497.3 Million

Whoa! That's a lot of tax!!!
