[lace-chat] secret pal thanks
To my secret a big thank you for the exquisite bobbin - such craftsmanship and a choice of unusual woods, it will be a pleasure to use, thank you. I bulk buy beech midland bobbins from Tim Parker, so my commemorative bobbins (from lace weekends) and the bobbins I have received in a swap from Jeannette Fischer (south africa) glow in their beauty nestling amongst their less adorned brethren and your bobbins from last month and this month will join the other beauties.

[lace-chat] Old Folks
HI Tamara, Well, here's my offering for Chat tonight. They were new to me, I hope new to others. Now to go back to my s'Gravenmoer and the 3rd chevron... A little old lady was running up and down the halls in a nursing home. As she walked, she would flip up the hem of her nightgown and say, "Supersex" She walked up to an elderly man in a wheelchair. Flipping her gown at him, she said, "Supersex." He sat silently for a moment or two and finally answered, "I'll take the soup." An elderly Floridian called 911 on her cell phone to report that her car has been broken into. She is hysterical as she explains her situation to the dispatcher: "They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!" she cried. The dispatcher say, "Stay calm, Maam, an officer is on the way." A few minutes later, the officer radios in. "Disregard.", He says. "She got in the back-seat by mistake." Carol Melton Valley of the Sun, 140 days with no rain at Sky Harbor. (Scottsdale got poured on yesterday but nothing at the airiport) Saturday and Sunday hold a 60% chance! Whe!

[lace-chat] :) Fwd: Late-Night Political Jokes
There's a morsel here for each side of the fence to savour :) From: R.P. "More problems for Hillary Clinton. The head of New York state's leading gay rights group describes Hillary Clinton as a disappointment on same sex marriage. Today, her husband Bill described her as a disappointment on opposite sex marriage." --Jay Leno "Did you know the winner of this year's best foreign language film got an Oscar and one of our seaports?" --Jay Leno "Plans were announced to raise $300 million for the George W. Bush Presidential Library. $300 million. That's almost $150 million per book." --Jay Leno "Hillary Clinton now says she didn't know her husband was giving Dubai advice on the port deal while she was ruling against it. Hillary not knowing what her husband was doing, is that the first time this has happened?" --Jay Leno "I'm sure you have heard by now, Bill Clinton is looking for 25 interns to work at his library. I was thinking about that, could you fit 25 interns in his library? Clinton says that anyone he hires must be good on the computer, good on the coffee table, good on top of the copy machine." --Jay Leno "The Oscars were seen in over 100 countries, two of which don't hate us." --Jay Leno "George Clooney won for Syriana, which was about the CIA and what people will do for oil.
