Lateral Thinking, p 71

While people are thinking on the last lateral thinking puzzle and the newly posted riddle, I thought I might as well waste a little more time before getting to things I need to do today : ) So, here is another "think outside the box" puzzle.
There is a short story which describes the end of Time and its reversal, with people living backwards from the grave to the cradle. Other than in fiction, where would August come before July?

    Yes, I allow the answer "in alphabetical order"--for that is the idea behind the dictionary.

    Another 25 pts awarded to Kris. Boy, you are cleaning up!

    If you want, and think that this site needs more advertisement, you could tell Dwight about it... and does Sarah know this is here?
    (Kyle knows, but is out-of-town right now. Actually, he's out-of-country currently on vacation with Ashley and family.)

    oh, and why dosen't amy ever comment?

    the only way i know of to get publicity is to comment on other blogs a lot, and leave your website.

    the other thing i was thinking, was that when you click on someones blog link, it takes you to a 'profile' page. if someone has more than one blog they are all listed at the bottom. i don't see one of those for your blog. (there is a link to mine under my picture)

    any of that help?

    Yep, it helps... I had been debating how much of my "profile" I want others to know. I figure, it probably doesn't matter in the long run, anyway.

    Plus, I didn't think I had a good picture to post--but, as you see, there's an okay one of Amy and I. : )

    And I had purposely commented my "profile" link out of the code so it wouldn't appear and take up space. But, I updated my profile--to some degree--and stuck it back in my blogs.

    Thanks again for the suggestions.
