Of course, maybe good word of mouth coupled with an ad blitz will save it... but at the moment, it's the laughing stock of my catalog.

That's a bummer! I'll have to queue it up next and write a review on it!

I'm happy to have found a source for peridots!

And less materially, I'm happy to see us all getting back into silliness mode!

And I can walk again, after suddenly getting gout in my ankle last week. What next? Scurvy?

Oh! I know! I know! I'm happy 'cos I lost weight this summer! (In addition to losing the Gall Bladder!)
Congrats on the weight loss! I found it, in case you need it back. Also, just got Verdant Skies. I needed the reminder.

I should do that, since I'm hobbling around on crutches. Would be mighty entertaining to watch!

No kidding! Where's a good laugh when you need one? You can't just pop one of those into the trebuchet and fire away, you know.

Yes, but the crutches are for gout in the left ankle. However, we rented me a wheelchair, and off we went over the weekend to a big gem and mineral show in Georgia. I slipped in the hotel bathroom because of being on crutches, and came down with one hand in the toilet, the other flailing, and landed on the tub edge with my chest, just below my neck! Luckily, I only broke a toe and had a few bad cuts on my GOOD FOOT!!! Arrrgh. OH! But at least I'm caught up! I don't have to worry about getting hurt again until after Ricky's next bizarre accident. We seem to be competing for the Klutx Kween Krown.
