Wine rack and corkscrew; something with their
i new
initials on it...like a monogramed corkscrew. Heh.

- Tivo
- Fat Lowes or Home Depot gift certificate
- A weekend at a bed and breakfast...

dunno

toaster


Some friends of mine had a wedding once and made the mistake of saying explicitly they didn't want a toaster.

They got about a dozen.

hahahahahah

figures people would get what they don't want.

I was actually thinking of a nice set of crystal wine goblets...the initialed corkscrew would be a nice touch.

weekend at a B&B also sounds nice.

There's one up in new hampshire that is really nice...old victorian mansion connected to a really good restaurant...includes breakfast and dinner with the room and it's reasonably priced too. Stonehurst Manor

Hey, I wish I'd known about that place when I lived in Maine! That looks like a great idea.

I also like the wine goblets. The reason I mentioned the initialed corkscrew is because when I married Keoni, I was very happy to change my monogram...and looked forward to having it for the next 50 years or so. ;-)

A bottle of vintage port that will be drinking at an appropriate anniversary can be nice.

Arky, your mention of hearing the Republicans in your sleep reminds me of my dream last night...not political but we came to see you and Bob and I decided I needed to "pop back home to get something I forgot"....ha!....and when I drove up in the driveway, the police were there and arrested me!

I woke up before I found out why....

15053. arkymalarky - 5/20/2005 2:59:10 PM

Oh my!

Just pack carefully when y'all come--you don't want it to be a premonition! ;-)

I just thought I would drop by to tell you that everything is under control in Uzbekistan.

Arky, thank you for your response re: Irving Snodgrass. I mentioned teak furniture and the Snod to my next door neighbor who is an owner of a "home store" a year or two ago. He just expressed an interest for the first time a week or two ago.

15056. wabbit - 5/20/2005 7:27:19 PM

Uz, these are the two websites for Irv's Bali businesses:

furniture: JavaBaliExpress

stuff: Bali Stuff

15058. PelleNilsson - 5/20/2005 7:52:22 PM

Hit the wrong button. Sorry.

15059. arkymalarky - 5/20/2005 8:18:09 PM

Sorry I misinformed you, Uz.

15060. wabbit - 5/20/2005 9:01:40 PM

Arky, you may well be right that Irv isn't involved with the Bali businesses anymore, I don't know one way or the other. I just had the url's. I should have said "Irv's Bali businesses, last I knew". PsychProf may know more.

It's 95° here.

Hey, right now American Politics and Conflict in the Middle East have the same post #.

15064. arkymalarky - 5/21/2005 3:34:48 AM

Just got back from graduation. I'd promised seniors I'd go, and I'm glad I did. It was great seeing everyone.

15065. Magoseph - 5/22/2005 4:35:08 PM

I am sure they were very happy to see you, Arky. I always found myself much invigorated after attending a graduation.
