That's better - Thanks BTW oh yes I am familiar with TinyURL Preview feature but why must I visit Tinyurl homepage to see the preview? I'm trying to make my internet surfing as less stressful & time consuming as I can :-)

re: I'm trying to make my internet surfing less stressful
I agree, but I gotta ask:
What's less stressful: Previewing pages at TinyURL or repeatedly posting as you did in Response #2?
I applaud your efforts to get people to stop using TinyURL, but alas, your quest reminds me of this guy.
Don Quixote is a middle-aged gentleman obsessed with the chivalrous ideals touted in books he has read. He decides to take up his lance and sword to defend the helpless and destroy the wicked. In the end, the beaten and battered Don Quixote forswears all the chivalric truths he followed so fervently and dies from a fever.
Ever faithful,
Sancho
