  1. Re oppossum:

    Legion, I bet none of those people will ever mess with you. It works with your “intimidation through obvious and skillful use of heavy, dangerous machinery and hand weapons” suggested for wierd neighbors.

  2. “It has to switch on to the Local track Dave….”

    It can do that without waiting for a C to come from behind, pass and get in front of it. Both tracks converge. Everywhere else around the world the Express would get the go ahead. You anbd rob need to travel a bit more.

    Shows how much you really understand.

    donatella, i kinda agree with you about the flea. i mean it’s cool and all and it is what it is, but for the most part it just seems like an overpriced yuppie craft fair. it’s not really a flea market much. obviously it seems to do well, and there’s a market for it, but it’s just not the kind of stuff i look for.

    Yeah, that is my point. The ultimate “flea” is EDDIE HIBBERT’s. I absolutely love going there. I have found all kinds of things in there. He makes no pretense of making it a store, it is stuff he got from salvage joints and he just brings it out on the street. I got from him:

    — beautiful women’s club chairs (reupolstered, now great)
    — Mirrors
    –mahogany coffee table
    — candle sticks
    –AMAZING FIND – a handpainted victorian fan (now framed, looks great)
    — patio set – got the cast iron frames, ordered cushions on line. Nice. it works.

    Plus, I get to talk to Eddie. AND watch the people show for a while. Really fun.
