i new
initials on it...like a monogramed corkscrew. Heh. 15046. iiibbb - 5/19/2005 9:13:53 PM - Tivo
- Fat Lowes or Home Depot gift certificate
- A weekend at a bed and breakfast...
dunno 15047. iiibbb - 5/19/2005 9:14:39 PM 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. 15048. thoughtful - 5/19/2005 9:21:02 PM 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. 15049. thoughtful - 5/19/2005 9:37:18 PM 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
15050. judithathome - 5/19/2005 10:52:29 PM 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. ;-) 15051. jayackroyd - 5/19/2005 11:37:45 PM A bottle of vintage port that will be drinking at an appropriate anniversary can be nice. 15052. judithathome - 5/19/2005 11:40:56 PM 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! ;-) 15054. Magoseph - 5/20/2005 6:58:04 PM
15055. uzmakk - 5/20/2005 7:17:26 PM 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. 15061. judithathome - 5/20/2005 10:38:53 PM It's 95° here. 15062.

15063. arkymalarky - 5/21/2005 3:33:52 AM 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.
