Owen, I immediately went, looked up and perused the other eBay items you've 
been bidding on during the last month...an interesting collage of stuff  I 
learned new things, thanks!  eBay still knocks me out.  It is an amazing 
repository of collective human knowledge (produced voluntarily!) and a 
seemingly endless source of interesting activities and games (e.g., 
voyeuring/sampling someone else's interests and knowledge).

Yes - it is interesting and many do not know that you can search by bidder to see what 
people have been up to. I have such diverse interests (or weird as the case may be) 
that Krista  always says if anyone were to go through your studio and see
what you have they would not know what to make of it or you. 

I particularly like ebay as a source of both inspiration and for art supplies.
