"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, yeah, this doesn't do that.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Hrm, this seems like a good deal.

Erin, feel free to send it to me and I'll delete the last page.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Erin, have you tried Ctrl-Shift-End before the page and cutting instead of deleting? Sometimes cutting will get rid of those extra breaks when deleting won't.

Arggh. I've tried them all. No joy. But thanks for the advice, all.

Javachik, I'm sending it to you, and I really appreciate the offer. It's a rough draft, so don't judge!

Consuela, going to Spain issues aside, how do you like the Mytouch? I'm up for an upgrade in March, and we have T-Mobile with unlimited call, text and data, and I'm trying to decide which phone will be best for me.

Hi Erin, just got it, fixed it, and sent it back. Happy to help.

The resume was actually created using a table, so the margins of the table and the "narrow" margin of the resume settings were screwy. So I selected the paragraph mark after the table and formatted it with 1 pt of font size, zero spacing before/after (and as hidden text, too, if necessary). Then I pressed Ctrl+Shift+8 again to hide non-printing marks, and the blank page disappeared.

I am writing this down. I am no graphic designer, so I do use some templates for certain resumes, and I have run into formatting issues that have taken me more time to fix than the damned writing itself.

THANK YOU.

My pleasure, Erin.

There's also the time-honored solution (which I believe is actually called a Maggie after the person who put forth the idea) of copying everything except the final paragraph mark and putting it into a new Word document.
