A house like that would be nice.

Swedish stamps, recently released:

11523. alistairconnor - 9/30/2004 3:19:51 PM

And which one of them is you, Pelle?

11524. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 3:21:54 PM



11525. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 3:22:46 PM

I had something to say, but I forgot what it was.

11526. alistairconnor - 9/30/2004 3:28:29 PM

That never slows me down! Say something else instead.

11527. PelleNilsson - 9/30/2004 3:43:00 PM

Another recent stamp.

11528. RickNelson - 9/30/2004 3:43:52 PM

congrats Jexter!

kewl underground house. I saw one of those in Southern Illinois.

Congrats, Jex!

I have such a wonderful husband...I can't get down onto the floor to clean the stove properly so he did it. My 50+ year old stove now looks almost as good as the day my daddy bought it for my mom! And works just as well, too, I might add.

Alistair's latest prompts me to announce a quiz. Who are the four persons depicted on the stamps? A certain gentleman among us -- he knows who he is -- is excluded for reasons that will eventually become evident.

11531. PelleNilsson - 9/30/2004 4:01:07 PM

Answer clockwise from top left.

11532. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 4:31:01 PM

Lord, this is driving me nuts because these men's faces are actually familiar to me......except for the guy in the top left who resembles an actor whose name I can't now recall.

11533. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 4:57:25 PM

He looks like Burt Lancaster to me, Ms. No.

11534. wabbit - 9/30/2004 5:07:47 PM

Top right is George Bernard Shaw. No doubt I'll know the names of the others, just don't recognize the faces.

11535. Macnas - 9/30/2004 5:13:04 PM

But...

11536. Macnas - 9/30/2004 5:18:23 PM

I'll just get my coat shall I?

11537. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:30:10 PM

Oh lord, wabbit! You're right. That makes top left Yeats and bottom left Beckett and bottom right will turn out to be the guy who wrote Juno and the Paycock or something. I don't know who he is but I'd guess he's an Irish author.

11538. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:31:05 PM

Where're you going, Mac? Trying to scoot out the door before spilling the beans?

11539. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:34:28 PM

Mags,

You're right. Yeats does look like Burt Lancaster in that picture but that's still not the actor I was thinking of. It's some contemporary guy who's in his 40's-50's about now, I think. I haven't seen him in awhile. He generally plays supporting roles and I keep thinking of him a bit sweaty and disheveled in a lab coat.

Gawd my brain is Swiss-cheesy.
