Ann, thanks for adding to my vocabulary grin. I've never heard the word 
malarkifizing or malarkiface. From the context, Ithink  they're words I'd like 
to use at times, but couldyou please explaianto me a bit more what it means 
(you can tell me offlist if you want. I think I know a person or two--I think 
my husband has aperson we could use the terms with if I knew for sure what it 
meant?
