 * On the side-bar I want to delete the “Archive” text/link but I don’t like to 
   delete actual code. Is there a way I can just comment that part out so I can 
   get it back in tht future? I assume this is what I need to comment:
 * <?php } ?>
 *  <?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=<h2>Navigation</h2>’ ); ?>
    - <h2>Archives</h2>
 *  -  <?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’); ?>
 * But I don’t know where to put the /* */

 * I assume you still want the navigation on the side – so the rest of the code 
   can’t be commented out.
