Hillsborough, NC. 10/26/92
With my baby Ben (why oh why didn't we take off his hat?!?). But it's my Ben! I swear!

Bill held him for the longest time and did the jiggle and sway thing folks who know how to hold a baby do! Finally, when Hillary was at the microphone wondering where Bill was, I reached in and took Ben back. Bill looked him in the eye and kissed him on the forehead and handed him (reluctantly) back to me.

And now Ben is 20 and about to vote in his first presidential election himself!

All choked up in NC, that's me!

Edited to follow Aristus's advice about how to get rid of the code that came in with the photos! YAY! (Thanks, Aristus!)

5. I have Photobucket but they're probably similar

If you have the four following choices use the 'Direct Link' one and the text will not show up.

Email and IM

Direct Link <--- use this one

html code

IMG code

7. I also would like to know how to post a photo without the url, name, etc.......

8. I posted a p.s. picture and had better luck. . .

I'm using flickr and went to "Share" and then "Grab the link" and then "Grab the HTML/BBC code". (all in a panel at the left of the screen)
Copied and pasted that version of the code and it came in cleaner without anything but the picture and my name for it. . . .

Hope this helps! I wish I could figure out how to get the pic to import without ANY text. Apparently photobucket is better? . . .

9. Great pics, ncgrits. Love them.

In the future, when you cut and paste a photo link, highlight and delete all the code after the .jpeg. That should get you the pic without the extra code.
