   Depends on the DPI setting you have.  If 24 is too big, drop down to
   20 or less.

 JP> What is the story or joke about this Shipwrecked ?

  Well, it is a play on words of sorts.   Shipp is the name.  Hesperus
  is the street that I live on (in a neighborhood called Longfellow).
  And Longfellow had a story or poem called "The Wreck of the Hesperus".

  I put it all together into a tag line which gets filled in
  automatically to give a date/time stamp for when the message was first
  composed.  Except that the year has to be set manually.   You made me
  realize that I have not done that this year!!
