Come to think of it, since I’m in the shameless begging mode anyway, if anyone has an LJ code to spare, I’d appreciate that as well. I have no pride, but I can reciprocate by baking some Neiman-Marcus cookies (it’s the [real deal](http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/service/nm_cookie_recipe.jhtml), foks, and it’s quite good). ---

Well, I’d love an invite, if anyone’s still giving them away, but I just wanted to tell Earthling that you don’t need LJ codes anymore, just go sign up. 'Course, now that I’ve posted that, they’ve prolly gone back to codes. If so, email me and I’ll send you one. weirddave0 at hotmail dot com if anyone has an extra gmail invite, or if you need a LJ code. Danke ---

I’d love a gmail account, and will send you (kosher!) yummy homemade baked goods of your choice as a sign of my eternal gratitude if you invite me - email me at gs371 at yahoo if you have one to spare. Possibilities include brownies, cream cheese brownies, choc-oat-chip cookies (which have a serious neighborhood following, requiring me to make a quadruple recipe to have enough to go around), chocolate cookies, or anything else you think would be shippable. Hot fudge pudding cake, my all-time best seller, is sadly probably not in that category 🙂 ---

That takes the cake! I send out the last of my invites and now there is an offer for baked goods in trade. :smack: ---

This just in-Yahoo Mail just increased their free mailbox size from 6 megs to _100_ megs, with a 10 meg file size limit. Looks like the e-mail war has started, folks. 😛 ---
