15303. judithathome - 6/2/2005 9:04:20 PM I think we call that a raft. 15304. Ms. No - 6/2/2005 9:06:24 PM Hahaha, well, we only paint tooled leather black if we're hopelessly inept crafters. I do, however, know a couple of folks who make rather more exotic leather crafts.
I've no idea what the cost is like, but I know my dad built the floating structure for a raft about that size out of oil drums. They were welded together and then the wooden platform was secured over the top. It got us down the Tar river for several summers flying under Redbeard's flag. 15305. Ms. No - 6/2/2005 9:07:17 PM It's only a raft if it leaves the dock.....what that makes a car that never leaves the yard I couldn't say. Art? 15306. Magoseph - 6/2/2005 9:14:16 PM From our friend PsychProf:
The wedding was all that I wanted and more...I'll get some pics up when they come out. Ms Oz looked so beautiful it took my breathe away. And I now have a new daughter. First dance was so neat, swing...first dance of bride and her Dad was to Woolly Bully, and Ms Oz and son danced to My Prayer, Dion-Bocelli...I danced all night, and the last dance had 120 people form circle around bride and groom, and move in and out to "That is what friends are for"...best man and woman wrote speeches in tandem, each taking turns making us laugh and cry as they characterized their love for their brother/sister...and the wedding vows...too much for me to take, as I wept like a child...the chapel was on a private woman’s school, with sunlight bathing us thru many windows... .for three days I never got more tha a few hours of sleep. Well, the couple is in Iceland now, climbing glaciers and golfing at midnight. We await the video, but for now we have the DVD my youngest(best man) made that captured the history of bride and groom with pics and film clips, accompanied by Enya and S-G, Bookends...Ms Oz and I watch every night. 15307. jexster - 6/2/2005 9:34:30 PM Where's he been?
MIA, whilst the Prof boogies, I trust he realizes that he's missing out on a major league development in sports... 15308. thoughtful - 6/2/2005 10:34:09 PM brother is still in ICU...they can't get his bp down. Very frustrating. 15309. judithathome - 6/2/2005 10:59:08 PM Oh, so sorry to hear that. Sending good vibes his way.... 15310. arkymalarky - 6/2/2005 11:11:43 PM Me too, please keep us posted, Thoughtful. 15311. judithathome - 6/2/2005 11:45:00 PM Arky, you've got mail... 15312. Magoseph - 6/3/2005 8:57:49 AM thoughtful, I hope there'll be better news today.
Hello, Mac! 15313. Macnas - 6/3/2005 10:16:28 AM Eh up Mago. 15314. Magoseph - 6/3/2005 10:35:28 AM Where's the humor in this cartoon--can you tell me?
 15315. Macnas - 6/3/2005 10:45:46 AM I suppose that, it's saying most of the american public have forgotton or never really heard of watergate until now.
Piss-poor cartoon in any case.
I like Dilbert, Barkeater lake, and Get fuzzy. 15316. Magoseph - 6/3/2005 11:21:12 AM Since it was in Harper's Magazine, I assumed the meaning escaped my understanding. 15317. judithathome - 6/3/2005 5:11:32 PM I thought it was rather funny, myself...
Mags, in the letters section of my papaer today, someone took Bush to task for using the word "disassemble"....you have a good ear! 15318. robertjayb - 6/3/2005 5:26:59 PM I caught that and immediately thought of my good friend, concerned. Seems to me that he, too, has been trained to disassemble. 15319. robertjayb - 6/3/2005 5:43:34 PM Came through part of your territory the other day, judith. Down I-35E at midafternoon. Mercy, what a mess. After hours of peaceful cruising through Kansas and Oklahoma my ankle started to cramp from all the stopping and starting. Shaken, we bailed off the interstate at Hillsboro and took to the boonies. That was a good thing. Fine roads (thanks to our state's larcenous contractors) and we avoided the smalltown speedtraps. 15320. arkymalarky - 6/3/2005 5:54:00 PM Hey Judith! Just got back online and responded.
I just got back from a tooth-cleaning--the best appointment of the FIVE I have this summer. The other three are replacing old fillings and finally finishing this stupid root canal. 15321. arkymalarky - 6/3/2005 5:54:24 PM Other FOUR, I mean.
15322. robertjayb - 6/3/2005 5:59:34 PM re the latest Bushism: I've heard it said that if you are determined to use a word you don't really understand, get it out there good and loud. As I recall, dubya did that. Good for him.
