INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

Spookie, The beauty of the Columbia is there is a parking lot right behind . You know how Disney designs everything out of sight. Columbia's right on the corner. Easiest to get to restaurant in all of downtown. I may come from a different direction for certain poop reasons. Schatzi's been there enough. DS and I meet down by the divided road where the lusciously landscaped canal is located. I get out of the car Schatz' poops in short order on command. I bag it and dispose of it. No one around. I hate to pick up poop in front of people. Indelicate. But across from the Columbia is a park. In case doggy spookie has a need.

HI1-Yes re; glass, almost said no, but realized that was just the day you asked . I pick up Wexford whenever I see it. Lot's of it coming on the secondary market now i.e. thrift. More now than in the last 15 years. Wexford was made by Anchor-Hocking for the middle class from 1950 till 1970. Not sure when production stopped. It has lots of facets. It's pressed glass. It was made for the middle class to give a sense of cut crystal. What I like about it is 1. it's pretty after going through a wash with FINISH  2. it's incredibly rugged  3.The glasses are great in a woman's hand. Not too heavy and not slippery in anyone's hand. The thrift price should be .50 cents to a dollar per glass. Been picking up the serving pieces for the last year. Price should be between 3-6$. Haven't seen them before this year and have gotten quite a few. Ebay prices are way high. RC ridiculous. I've gotten my cousin to the point she's collecting it in Canada LOL. My favorite cousin out of 63 first cousins YAY. She's now a snowbird 1/2 hour away. She bought a condo here on Cocoa Beach. By the time I'm done she will be well stocked

Checked out your Lenox Falling Star today on Ebay. The bowl and the two candlesticks were listed at 89.95 On RC they only showed that the bowl and a picture were produced. The candle sticks are beautiful. Incredibly whimsical. Harkens back to the whimsy and artistry of Art Deco. Stylistic and elegant.

Have a section in DS room where I've been storing stuff for him. I found three 14 inch platters that he chose from what I collected, on the floor and then noticed the whole area upended. One of the dogs must have been trying to find a storm hiding place. Not a chip on the glass---amazing. Haven't checked everything out--just the trays. It was a moment of " What am I looking at--why are they upside down and all over the place"

Tip I learned a few weeks ago for chips on glass. The cardboard emory boards. Just keep working a chip until your satisfied. If it doesn't work--pitch it. Unless it's really valuable. Then make it a planter, or flower holder.

Smarrty,Yay 40lbs. that's the exact amount according to doc records I've gained since Dec 2012. Stupid docs ignoring what I said. Not No More.

Nay never No More.................hmm that's a line in a song
Found it "Wild Rover" I think Irish or Australian drinking song

Smarrty good I'll pass on to Philly. I feel bad about Tang not being here. The threads she's on (cuz I checked too), are inline with her problems. Just wish she were here too. Of course blame myself, she said I scared her. Sucks, I was feeling protective. Pisses me off, I think she has been mismanaged, but she didn't need me being strident at the time. poop.

Paws, what a great thing to see, before going to work. WOW I loved Akron Ohio, but after being in Florida for several months after we moved in 1992, I said I would never again live where there were grays skies everyday. Akron Clevland was /is second to Seattle Washington for the number of cloudy days. In Akron, when the sun shone, people would remark all day about it. We didn't really understand that there was a different world out there.

Nettie Thanks for your opinion :0 Loved the motorcycle granny

Blondie, hugs babe, enjoy your drugs-----sounds strange, but I know you get it.

Okay possibly done, realized I did an overlap.  I can do this split screen thing with Windows 8.1. Very cool. read on right, type on left.
