I have a number of trees and propose to make about 10 to 20 gallons of the stuff, depending on the crop.

Nic made me rewrite our SEO page. I thought I had all the info well written and clear, but she came up with a far more user friendly version. Am I really too much of a techie? Well I got excited over a program for calculating the distances between geocoordinates yesterday, so I think we all know the answer to that one.

We went to Meedhupparu for our honeymoon, and now Nicola's brother is going to the same island. He and Tracey are gonna spend a week in Meedhupparu, so I will definitely get some fresh reviews of them.

4000 backlinks

Although Brown Bear Web Design has 4,000 backlinks they are not a high pageranking site. Maybe this is because most of them are from sites on the same server. It will be interesting to see how things change as links from external sites on different servers are added. We have been converted to the usefulness of article aggrogator sites..
