    Carl - I have that pic on the wall in my office, right next to the sign saying "I am silently correcting your grammar." Best thing about the Apostrophe Man pic is that it's missing a comma...


    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    Back on thread... without all the purple and cartoons.

    My Daydream is for a small octagonal house with floor to ceiling walls made of hurricane proof glass. Surrounding the house is a deck protected by the overhanging roof. Each of the floor to ceiling "windows" can be pivoted to allow air to flow through the house. This is not a big house. One bedroom, one bath, small kitchen with a living room area. A place to read, relax and for a computer to keep up with what is going on in the world and SRP.

    The house would be situated on a river and I would have a boat not only to fish, but to go to restaurants, bars, and other places up and down the river. I would leave a small pickup truck land side to go grocery shopping or when I get stir crazy (not likely to happen!).

    The reason I would not go stir crazy is because my dream also includes a three car workshop to hold all my tools and allow me to tinker my heart away. I will have a land side mail box so I can still order things I want on the internet. Maybe I will build the house and surrounding deck on top of the workshop so I can wake in the morning and watch the sun rise from my bedroom and, as I sit on my deck in the evening, I can watch the sun set.

    I guess I could have written this in prose. Such as: "The sun appeared over the horizon and glistened on the river's water with a promise of becoming much more. As the sun rose further and caressed the surrounding glass of my abode with the genteelness of a lover , it was like a diamond chandelier having been turned on. The brilliance, magnificence and color were awe inspiring and was the welcome to which I awoke for a new day of life."

    But hey, I don't write that kind of stuff.

    Oh well, it's nice to dream.

    Well, yes. I guess it should be "I'll have that chalk, thank you". Is that what you mean? I think I saw that picture here first...
