...Mafia-style-shakedown, but I need a favor. I'll soon be releasing my new book on Kindle (Couchgrouch Year One, co-written with Frank Miller), and here's my hurdle: Quite a few JPFers have links to their sites embedded in all their posts at the bottom. How do you do that? I'd like to have links to all my books, Soundclick and SoundCloud in mine. Bear in mind, I'm a tech dum-dum so if you try to explain it to me, pretend you're explaining it to your cat. Gotta run...in addition to coordinating Harry and Meghan's tweets, I've been hired by Trump to put a horse's head in the Ukraine president's bed. Ps...that was a fake book. My real one has a different title.

Now that you've gone this far, you may as well add a link under each book title so people can click and find. Very few people do the work of finding the title, especially if you don't either. If you want to get real fancy, you can also make each book title an actual link to each book. Here's how you do it, but you have to be smart enough to open two tabs on your browser: -Using the Full Editor in JPF, right where you typed "Americana", instead click the Insert Link button. It looks like a little blue globe on a paper clip. -Up pops a box that says: "Enter the URL of your link" and this is where you need to open another tab, go to your Amazon kindle link, and copy that link. It looks like this: https://www.amazon.com/Americana-Robert-George-ebook/dp/B00E9K23OI-Paste that link into the white box, press enter, and up pops one last box box that says: "Now enter a TITLE for this link" -Type Americana -And you get this: Americana

Thanks John. Mark, I'll give it a go before my book is released, hopefully this weekend. It's gonna be a trial. Tech makes me go all Mueller (that's not my pervue, I can't recall). In related news, I just landed a cool gig at a Ukrainian software development firm, pulling down 50 grand a month. First assignment...bamboo computers per Greta's command. Miami's going under!!!

On that note...what a complete waste of that horse's head....we will need as many of them alive when we go back to horse and buggies...all automotive workers can be re deployed in keeping the streets clear of horse droppings

We're working on car designs that outfit each vehicle with both solar panels and windmills, plus a canvas bag for the dead birds.
