Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments I read care and feeding of unmarried men for another challenge and it just didn't do anything for me...the title just had nothing to do with the story (that I could figure out at least)...what do you think?

Sandra | 4260 comments Jade, you can type the date next to the ones you've finished or you can cross out by using html.

At the top of the comment box is (some html is ok). Click on that, then look down the list and you'll see examples of how to do various things including crossing out.

Basically you use <*s>......*s> this would be how it looks, just leave out the *
