Ben,
Try this great little script.
I forgot where I got it, but it's a gem!
You can change the last three lines (the document.write's)
to add your "Today's highlights..."

In the fourth to last line, I see it has a small Y2K problem,
but it's easily fixed on Dec. 31. (  See the   + ", 19"  )

Hope this helps,
jimmy
