Laughing Dogs
In 1989, a German restaurant called the Hummer ist kline was established by Henry Costell, who was 51 at that time. The Hummer ist kline was situated on the corner of Popular Avenue. After the restaurant was established it was obvious that it wasn’t going to last very long. The food was terrible and nothing like German food had ever been, or will be. Before the restaurant could go into bankruptcy, Henry closed the place for two months. He borrowed some money and changed it entirely in the hope of making a fresh start and when it open again it was now Legend of Greek: a Greek restaurant. Some of it’s customers, in the hope that it would be different then before, made their way to the place to find out that the food hadn’t changed. Even though the name of the dishes had changed the end result was still a crispy burnt piece of inedible slop that could make a goat lose its appetite on a diet.
Three months later, Henry died of a heart attack and the business was now handed over to his son, Jonathan Costell, 43. In summer 1990, Jonny (as he was usually called) made the restaurant go through another transformation. After two more months of renovation the restaurant was now the Laughing Dogs. Even though the name was far worse then the previous names but the food was better, slightly. The food was slightly edible and as it was a fast food burger restaurant situated in a nice location, the sales were higher then before, however they weren’t that high, but high enough to let the restaurant pay its debts and run on a fairly small profit.
Jonny designed the uniform of the Laughing Dog’s and as his favorite colours were red and yellow, so were the theme colours of the restaurant. He also designed the logo, which had a picture of a dog (which didn’t look like it was laughing) with his tongue sticking out, pasted on to something that looked like a red and yellow looneytoons circle with the words Laughing Dogs on it.

I can't see it either, BUT can pull it up by copying the URL from the properties box. I also think I know how to fix it: you need to go into geocities filemanager, and rename the file so it ends in .txt instead of .jpg, then link to the file named with the .txt ending.
That should work.
