how does a post-a-holic change his 'just hatched' status.

Been there, done that, goes fast.

Just post! It'll fly by, I assure you!

We were all hatched here, however we have no clue which came first the chicken or the egg?

Very cute phoenix!

Phoenix how did you do that?

thorman,

I'm a hatchling, too, just eggactly a week older than you are. And I love being a hatchling. Intend to be one as long as possible. It's great to have a valid excuse for my blunderings and ignorance, and I have no trouble at all operating under low expectations.

Before you know it you'll be a hatchling no more and yearn for your misspent youth

Aa I cannot imagine you as just hatched however I do see it below your name. Is there snow on the mountains yet?

quinn1,

You must be referring to both my misspent youth and my misspelled youth. After posting, I read that I can edit my post and went in search of How - but the forum that promised to be about correcting a post did not tell how, and the statement "You *can* edit your posts in this forum" did not have a link. Maybe I ought to spend time with the FAQ; when all else fails, read the directions. (I was going to change "eggactly" to "eggsactly" - no biggie.) -- Speaking of hatchlings, here's a bit of trivia. The shortest "ology" occupation is that of oologist - one who makes a study of eggs, especially birds' eggs. -- Now you know why I am mulish about hanging on to my Just Hatched disclaimer.

Aa, on posts which you have written, and only on those which you have written, you will see a radio button in the upper right-hand corner of your post marked "edit" . . . hit that button, and away we go . . .

I love it when Setanta dances like that !

Sssshhhhhh . . . Lovey . . . not in front of the kids . . .

(Who's going to goad Aa into post number 10, thereby becoming a Newbie and No Longer Just Hatched?)
