And now Kat made me do that same thing as msbelle. A bi-coastal plot of crafty nice ladies!

But do I dare go back to place where so many pretty expensive things wait to tempt me?

Can you decide in advance how much moeny you're going to spend, take that and only that amount with you, and this way you wouldn't go over what you permit yourself but still have fun?

my cat is fighting with his tail. He only likes to do this while laying about on this one chair. it is ridiculously funny. note to self: keep chair out as permenant furniture in living room.

Though come to think of it, Rolf the Dog is already based on Waits. [...] 70s Tom Waits, though.

Nope, he can't possibly be. Rowlf first appeared on the Jimmy Dean Show (yes, the sausage guy used to be a singer) back in the early sixties, ten years before Waits's first album came out. Waits was only 14 when Rowlf started pounding away on his piano.

So we're faced with the possibility that Tom Waits is based on Rowlf the Dog?

Kat, If you go to the Netherlands any time, remember my brother lives there (he works in satellites, so he can talk to Lori with lots of cool techie speak) AND his wife owns a fantastic chocolate shop, with fancy Belgian chocolates!!!!!!

So we're faced with the possibility that Tom Waits is based on Rowlf the Dog?

Or that one of them can travel through time. Probably Rowlf.

Hello, Nilly! Lovely to see you.

How are you doing, Robin? It's been forever since I posted with you.

It might help if I spelled Merlin correctly. [link]
