used by anyone for any purpose?

Let's don't put that one on the website, I guess. It's kind of comical
because she copies off all of them I send via the list and puts them in
the library but I'm not supposed to put any from the library on there.
It's a touchy subject -- I LOVE HER DEARLY and she is SOOOOOO GENEROUS
so no sense in making her mad but it seems rather odd that what's good
for the goose isn't for the gander or whatever that saying is. She can
do it but we can't -- oh, well, we have plenty going up :) She had also
told me I could share that e-mail from her that had that obit in it then
gets mad 'cause I just put that one obit up -- oh, well, don't put it up
there permanently please. Later maybe we can :)
