where you will get the last of the clues. 

 

If you have missed a week you can find the back issues on the website

puzzles to get your clues.

Have a blazing week.  -- Michael

Michael,

I would like to take this chance to say what a difference you have made
in my marriage.  Ive bought a couple of your e-books.  All are
great, and the tips from the *500 tips* book has just about given my
husband heart failure!  He wonders where his old wife went - not
that he wants her back!  We have been married for 6 years, and we are
just opening up and really getting to know each other through your
books.  We are Christians, (I am a pastor's daughter), and its about
time someone helped me out without being immoral or degrading!
Thank you a thousand times!  ( And my husband thanks you, too!)

~~~  Contest     ~~~

This is week five of the *Quest for the Gold* contest.
Here is how it works.

Each week for 5 weeks you will have to answer a series of riddles or
trivia questions (usually 5) to get a clue.  At the end of the 5
weeks you will take the 5 weekly clues to solve one final puzzle.

Everyone who submits the final correct weekly clue will be entered
to win a trip to the prize vault to claim one prize.  All those who
correctly solve the final puzzle will be entered to win a trip to
the vault where they can claim 5 prizes in addition to one of my
ebooks.

Last week, from all the correct entries, I chose Dean Smith.
Go pick out a prize from the prize vault.

This series will all have to do with flowers that have a connection
to romance.

This flower is deadly if consumed in quantities yet it is used to
make medicine for the heart.  What is its botanical name?

Use the name, all lowercase, using no spaces to
complete the URL http://www.theromantic.com/______.htm

If your answer is correct, you will see the next question to answer.
If it is wrong, you will get an OOPS page.

Once you have answered all the questions correctly, you will be told
how to notify me so I can enter you in this weeks drawing.

TheRomantic.com's ever growing PRIZE VAULT is filled with books,
several board games including Romantic Sensations, An Enchanting
Evening and others, CDs, dance lessons and other fun stuff at

~~~    Tip of the Week    ~~~

Past Due
by B Hoover
http://www.TheRomantic.com/

I used my computer to print up a letter to my boyfriend telling him
how great he is and how crazy I am about him.  At the time, he was
trying to pay off a lot of bills that he and his ex-wife had
incurred. 

 

He was desperately trying to stay ahead of the game, but he was always
struggling.  I decided to send him a collections notice. 

 

On the document I created I used a font that was most like a business or
typewriter font, I also used a feature in my word processing program
that puts the post office bar code under the person's address, I had
hoped this would make the letter look more official.  I bought white
window envelopes (like a business would have) and I printed a fake
(but believable) P.O.  box as the return address on the envelope.
In the body of the letter I purposely printed in large black letters
"PAST DUE". 

 

I folded the letter so that the "past due" could be
seen through white envelope in order to give him that "oh no, not
another bill" feeling when he saw it.  The body of the letter was a
past due letter indeed, I stated how much I loved him and how my
hugs, kisses and attention were "past due" and that he was letting
his situation get the best of him.  Then I invited him to dinner so
that I could bring his affection account current and of course I
stated a due date. 

 

He was very amused by my creativity and he was
so excited when he got the letter and it gave him a nice break from
all the bad news he normally got via U.S. Mail.
