    Are you saying those are fashionable? Damn. What did I do to deserve that? Oh, well - I'll just wait until next week when the hipsters are wearing Lentil Framed Retro-Aviators or something...

        Well...I tried to interest him in electricity, but he just fixated on gears. At least the hints I dropped to young Joe Jaquard had some effect.

              Good point.   Fortunately, I've learned to embrace the vision(s). Or, as I posted on my webpage:   SMUT - the stuff that dreams are made of.

                        I haven't seen you here in a long time, but I'm glad to see you back as an upgraded, new and improved, "professional" member. I tell all my friends that I knew her when she was just a "member." It makes a fellow proud... :-D
