                          Do you know? Does your mom or dad know? Do your grandparents 
                          know? Well, someone has to know! Tips are passed down 
                          from generation to generation. With the world as busy 
                          as it is today and with families living in different 
                          areas of the world, it is hard to learn all of the tips 
                          the way people used to.&nbsp; </p>
                        <p>People are looking, believe me! Finally with the internet 
                          it is possible. At Tipz Time we can compile the tips 
                          in one area. People pass through here everyday. Many 
                          people leave their own tips that have been passed down 
                          from someone and many people discover something new 
                          that worked for them. Send them in, we will post them.<br>

                          Who is behind Tipz Time? Believe it or not, 39 yr old, 
                          <a href="http://www.wendyshepherd.com">Wendy Shepherd</a>, 
                          wife of 19 years to a wonderful husband named Michael 
                          and mom of&nbsp; 3 little boys! While the kids sleep, 
                          mom is having fun making a resource on the internet 
                          for those who need to know a tip or two.&nbsp; <br>
                          <br>
                          Tipz Time started as a single page of tips back in Sept. 
                          of 1997 on my personal homepage. I was always intrigued 
                          with the many tips that people seemed to have for different 
                          areas of their lives. My mother and mother-in-law always 
                          contribute tips and many people I know tell me tips. 
                          I had to share! I had to have a place for it all. &nbsp; 
                        <p> In February of 1999,&nbsp; Tipz Time got it's own 
                          domain. People that pass through are the main contributors 
                          to Tipz Time now.&nbsp; It is blossoming nicely. We 
                          just gave it a facelift, and worked in some ways to 
                          make it easier to see what tip areas are offered. We 
                          also offer update lists to bring our visitors back.&nbsp; 
                        <p>I truly enjoy working on the site. I wouldn't have 
                          it any other way. I have so much to learn, yet I have 
                          learned so much. Everything including the graphics are 
                          done myself. It is nice to have dreams of what would 
                          become of Tipz Time in the future. I hope that it would 
                          become a great resource for everyone to refer to anytime 
                          they think, "Hmm...I wonder if there is a tip for this?" 
                          Hopefully the answer is, "Well, let's look it up at 
                          Tipz Time!"&nbsp;<br>

                        <p>Tipz Time is a resource that holds many household / 
                          garden tips and craft ideas that people send in, and 
                          include many that are passed down from our own family 
                          and friends. So it is by the people and for the people. 
                          It's a sharing world here.&nbsp; </p>
                        <p>Tips for keeping pesky raccoons out of trash cans, 
                          and keeping cauliflower white. There are many tips for

                          into ever growing categories. There is also a message 
                          board where you can ask for tips that are not found 
                          yet at Tipz Time. It can make you dizzy! </p>
                        <p>We are striving to make Tipz Time the largest and most 
                          comprehensive online resource for tips, ideas and crafts.
