re #433 actually in the future parents will be able to pre-select certain
traits in their future baby, like hair and eye color. So we may have MORE
blondes in the future not less. Because ya know, gentlemen prefer blondes

IVVHB- my Aunt sent hubby and I a quilt for our wedding present. :) She
had waited find out what colors we liked (got the info from my mom) and
then made the quilt. :) It's absolutely gorgeous!! This is a woman who
used to make quilts professionally- she had a booth at the Ann Arbor Art
Fairs for a number of years. I'm in love with the quilt. :)

Happiness is not having to shoot the guy with the gun while at work the
other night.

I just sometimes you say things here knowing full well the reaction from many
members and then a year from now when it's getting brought up again (heck,
make it 5 years from now), you'll ask why.
That being said - I'm glad you didn't have to shoot - or get shot.

Of course, it could be the people who complain about things bru says that have
the problem...

Okay, so some of our clients are people with guns, but they just call-
they rarely come here. :)

I'd rather not give the name, but I work for a company that provides
computer services- desktop technical support, equipment, engineering
support and networking. Generally clients call in with problems and I
get them in touch with an engineer.

The problems begin when people bring guns to the workplace where there
shouldn't be any...

I work in computers for a mid-sized bank. Seven years going, and I've
never been at a branch while it was being robbed. Came close a few
times though.

She could crochet an afghan in return... if she has time and wants to.
But that is up the Anne.

resp:454 well I'll certainly do something. Not sure about cross-stitch
though, I tend to do large projects that are a year in the creation...

The neighbor for whom we do laundry and bike repair has been bringing over
boxes of chocolate peanut butter pretzels and getting Jim sick (he eats it
all within a few hours) after he ran out of apples. (He gets things by
volunteering at a church where they give out food from local stores). Today
he came to ask if I had a dryer because he has a new job as a cook at a
nursing home and his jacket is heavy cotton (I said to plan ahead three days
in this damp weather). If we are awake after 7 (we have a couple of other
neighbos who keep unusual hours) he will bring us the leftover vegetables from
supper. I expect once will be enough to fill the freezer. What are we going
to do with all the local produce we froze last fall?
Would Food Gatherers want to pick up from a nursing home?
