Again you have done a masterpiece!
Assuming you used your favorite spiral blades that had to have been a lot of 'breath holding' work....

Wonderful piece of work!
My daughter is building a new mountain home in CO where that would display very nicely.
SO now I have to find a slab of wood and get busy! Just hope mine turns out as well!!!
Biggest problem for me is finding the slab.

The Coffee Shop / Where are your glasses?
« on: August 22, 2014, 01:41:16 am »
Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me again, asking why I didn't do something useful with my time.
 
?Like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing?? I asked.
 
Talking about my  "doing-something-useful"  seems to be her favorite topic of conversation.
 
She was  "only thinking of me", she said and suggested that I go down to the Senior Center and hang out with the guys.
 
I did this and when I got home last night, I decided to play a prank on her.
 
I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a Parachute Club.
 
She replied,  "Are you nuts?  You are 78 years old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"
 
I told her that I even got a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to her.
 
She immediately telephoned me and yelled, "Good grief, Mom, where are your glasses?!
This is a Membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club."
 
"Oh man, I'm in trouble again,? I said, ?I really don't know what to do. I signed up for five jumps a week!!"
 
The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that my daughter had fainted.
 
Life as a Senior Citizen is not getting any easier, but sometimes it can be fun.

If it gets cold enough to get below freezing you can safely knock it down but do NOT take into a warm place! A friend found one in the woods while hunting and took into the local watering hole. When the nest warmed hibernating angry hornets emerged and cleared out the bar until a professional exterminator could use the spry bombs. Bar was closed all weekend!

Well done!

My kind of project....I love doing portraits with lots of blade changes and cuts.

The most ever was a lion & tiger side by side with 709 cuts.

Keep up with the great work!

Computer questions / Re: About SPAM....
« on: August 04, 2014, 08:40:01 pm »
FWIW...(for what its worth) I have gravitated away from Yahoo and Firefox completely!!!

For a browser I use Maxthon Cloud Browser and for 'serious' email I use "hotmail" which is no longer available but you can get it thru .msn....

Gmail is my 'conversational' email but for the serious stuff I go with my 'hotmail' account which is very good at sending the 'crap' to the spam folder and I check it daily to see if there is something that slipped into there that I need to look at and then i just do a full delete of all the 'crap'!

Firefox has become so big & bloated that i gave up on it 2 years ago!
"Maxthon" Cloud browser is based on the IE kernel without all the Microsoft bullshit.
