She's got quite the eye.<BR/><BR/>Mathman, D-Cup, I am fascinated by this owl-woman you speak of. <BR/><BR/>Dr Zibbs, howdy! Thanks for stopping by! Yes, the yarn art was a great craft wasn't it?<BR/><BR/>Barbara, what sets her room apart though is the relative lack of earth-tone walls and fake wood paneling. She does get the burnt orange in on the bedclothes and curtains though.<BR/><BR/>MnMom...NO!? Cardboard? Rocket fuel, maybe, turpentine, perhaps...but CARDBOARD? I'm so sorry. <BR/><BR/>Doc, thank you. We try.<BR/><BR/>Megan, Don't try and buy it from her, she'll rip you off.<BR/><BR/>Skylersdad, I don't drink rotgut, and it's 101 proof, so whatever it loses by being "fancy" it makes up in being devastating.<BR/><BR/>Cormac, we are a family of throwbacks.<BR/><BR/>K, thanks for stopping in! Nice to meet you. I'll pass that on to herself.<BR/><BR/>SomeGuy, I always do...<BR/><BR/>Fran, it's a wonderful room. I enjoy going in there and hanging around. She plays wonderful music, too, and has a cage full of trained rats that do tricks.<BR/><BR/>Erik, vodka mixes well it's true, but is no substitute for the finest <BR/>American spirit--bourbon.<BR/><BR/>Heals, no kidding...Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09747874295331152779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27540291.post-55847947801686963422008-11-17T23:55:00.000-05:002008-11-17T23:55:00.000-05:00Bubs, what a funny post.
