Sam has put a question up, and it is encouraging to get feed back and such. So far, I'm the only comment-reply, so go for it (besides, i'm curious what your answers are).
here's some quick web or programming trivia for you to learn. codes usually start with a < code type .. code entry.. and end with a /code type>. e.g.
< a href="http://www.biola.edu">Biola!< /a>
yeilds a linked Biola (without the initial space between '<' symbol and 'a' or at the end the '/'. Perhaps someone can explain that a bit better. That is a complex form of coding, you can also italisize, put words in bold and maybe underline as well by using < i, b, or u (respectively)>word or phrase to be changed< /i, b, or u>. just remember there is no space between '<' and the i b or u.
this is useful to know for a lot of reasons (coding reasons). but it is also useful for a little bit of humor as you can make fake understood code which conveys meaning. example:
"you, you.. you ALWAYS tell me i hold my spoon wrong! < crying> maybe all i need is for Barny to show me how!" .. ten minutes pass .. < /crying> shortly after.. "sorry about that teary mess earlier, dear, i just don't know what to around silverware sometimes."
this isn't really the best example. but it's the best i can do for 'spur of the moment'. usually it is shorter, and much more witty.

Hi Luke, just dropping by. Your site is always good to read. Philosophical, witty, and thoughtful. < small voice>And it's fun to read, too.< /small voice>
Also not the best example.
/but the best I could do at this hour
//9 pm isn't that late?
///slashes are fun as well
thanks for the compliment suzanne! your example was certainly better than mine, though peter's example was pretty much how it is. Good stuff, fun humor.
actually peter, i'm not learning html.. these are just things that I've picked up gradually. (c: "html" so THAT's what that is! < /wonder>
yeah, it's funny-difficult trying to write the < ... > stuff as illustrations because of the spaces which are necessary, but absent in practice. ah.
again, thanks for the posts, and hot chocolate DOES taste good, but I do like coffee and tea as well, and espresso, and hot milk, and hot-ish water. and did i mention tea?
css, will look into it, i'm sure there are good online resources to peruse (skim).
lastly, you think 9pm is late, suzanne? try 1:20am. Heh. I gotta get home and to bed.
In my web-design-teacher opinion, it is pointless to learn html without css. Css is where all the fun is.
Now, when you start learning a interpreted or compiled language, the inclusion in conversation gets more obtuse, and definately marks you as a geek.
9 pm isn't usually late. But I had a < nerd>Mystery Science Theater 3000 collection < /end nerd> calling my name. And THAT kept me up until around 1:30 am. HTML is simple and pretty funny, though I want to take up Tech Samaritans idea to learn other programming languages.
/did somebody say hot chocolate?>
Are you guys fellow MST3kers? I adore Mike (or Joel) and the 'bots. Great to see more women embracing their inner nerds.

sorry la, i'm trying to explain it so that other people CAN understand, but it is difficult (in response to my mom's post which said:
"But the other of people no[can't] understand! Like different words are your writing and confused [am] i... "
i love direct translation. it's a beautiful thing, and i think, not so hard to understand.
You can use HTML entities so you don't have to put a space in your examples.</trick class='neat'>

Also, why stop at HTML? Creating and using mini-dialects of XML is much fun!</ignore advice='Tim Bray'>

That should be:
