That rangefinder is cool, Winmag! It seems like a binocular on steroids.

Hey, what was the term given to that yelp that got used in about a zillion movies over the years?

Sitting here at church whilst Luke is auditioning for the Christmas show. A friend said "if they have a part for someone who marches to the beat of a different drummer, then that's for him."

So far, I'm remaining non-attached. But we got the word that a lot of the veteran leadership didn't show to audition. So far my clarifying things early seems to have worked.

So there's that...

Well, we're getting NO traffic today so we're quitting early. Come over and get some free stuff. Lamps - you said you could use lamps, right?

What do you think of blue? It's also smaller than we have now, but it looks comfy. It's really cheap. Dark Leather Loveseat

I think it’s a more cheerful color for a darkish room!

But could you guys AND Homer AND at least one other dog and a coupla cats all fit? ;-)

I’m still getting organized here...I’ll stop over in a hour or so. I could use some lamps, yeah...particularly since if I move things around, the tall lamp by the TV will need to be replaced by something that’ll sit on a table. And I have pretty much no lighting except the overhead light in the bedroom and office. In the winter, it’s nice to have some desk lights.

Already have a couple bites on the typewriters, so there’s that.

I really like thenewlittleguitar. It’s loud. And it smells good. Mmm...new spruce...

I think it’s too small, unless it had a nice big ottoman so we could put our feet up.

Can you come now and pick things we can set aside? We’re going to start packing up.

Cool, yes; steroids, no. It's just a tiny bit too big to fit in a shirt pocket.

I wasn’t talking about the size, I was talking about capability! More goodies in a smaller package!

I cleared a space for that desk and got the TV and all moved, so if there’s a time this afternoon when you’d have a minute to run those over...let me know! I’m gonna go to the last chance at 5:30, but I’ll be here until then. ;-)

I also have hot blackberry cobbler available. Sans ice cream or whipped cream, though. I runned out. :-\

And Tam is being a NUIsance, ‘cause the move uncovered two of his foam balls and he wants to play NOW. NOW! MORE!

Heh...when you were looking at couches, did you come across this set?
http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/fuo/820534012.html

Just...wow. I’m trying to picture the decor that would actually go with.

I did see that! And I almost posted a link for you... you know, to go with your vase. :~)

Ha! I guess it *does* kind of fit with *my* decor.

Scary, that.

That is about the style we’d like... soft, comfy arms.

Heck, a few years ago, when I was having more parties, I’d have loved the orange. :~)
