Happy Birthday!
Yesterday we celebrated a birthday. It wasn’t mine, or my wife’s, but it was one of my children’s, but not of the flesh and blood variety.
Actually, it was The News’ Birthday! Yes, that’s right. The News at ElephantToenails.com was born on Jan. 1, 2008.
Over the year we added 156 articles within 27 searchable categories and 484 tags for reference.
If you have a moment, take a trip down memory lane, but first let me say that I’m concentrating on being clearer and as succinct now as possible, so please take that into consideration as we step back in time, OK?!

Hi Scott, Several times a week i try very hard to end my day by checking out et.com before closing down for the day,having the love affair with these elephant-toe nails knives would not be the same without et.com, and my small collection of swellcenters would be even smaller. just needed to say thanks Scott. take care Vernon

Thanks Vernon
I am glad you enjoy toenails and ET.com. Yes, you have a nice “small” collection of swellcenters. If I wanted to limit my toenails, that is exactly what I could focus on too.
Scott
