'The Girl in Question'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
FWIW, he cried bloody murder when I tried a helmet on him this weekend.
I hear him. I think I've got perma welts on my forehead now from my helmet. Fortunately I also have the Longest Bangs in the History of Bangs (due to getting back too late on Sat. for my bang-cutting appointment).
Do you have the hang of materials yet?
We did a week of materials, but the instructor was of the opinion that we should spend a month on it to do them full justice. Once you get beyond the simple color-picking, you can do a lot with texture and shading and semi-translucency, not to mention how they handle shadows and refraction.
I modeled a crystal skull yesterday that came out pretty spiffy, actually. :-)

We at Coffincouches.com have the mindset of thinking "Green" and we know it is different but we strongly believe in recycling. Our niche happens to be 18 gauge steel coffins which we collected from local funeral homes primarily in Southern California. It is a health and safety law that funeral homes cannot resell used coffins to the general public. We approached funeral directors with the attitude of recycling. These coffins are not used for burial due to slight cosmetic inconsistencies. They are reconfigured and modified resulting in a finished product - a unique one a kind coffin couch. If you notice (although it may be too small) the six cast iron heavy duty legs are embossed with the universal biohazard insignia. The reason we utilized this sign was because safety was our utmost concern. If you are not aware, once a human body is placed in a coffin it is considered biohazard tissue. The legs have the embossed insignia for precautionary reasons in the event body fluids are exchanged on these coffins. Perhaps you would feel safe knowing that you are in designated biohazard scene!
They are very pretty! Only $4,500.

I got up at 3:30am to drive the DH to the Flyaway bus this morning. Managed to get an extra hour of sleep when I got home, but still feel like a zombie.
Me want to see the crystal skull. Are you going to post it in LJ? I love seeing all of your projects and enjoying your progress.
Would the phrase "you'll soon change your tune" make sense in French? If not, is there another colloquial phrase with a similar meaning?
I think "changer de refrain" exists, but one would be more likely to say "changer de discours", literally "to change one's speech". So "Tu vas bientôt changer de discours" would be the closest to your phrase above.
If a human body has been in the coffin, the family got charged for it. So the funeral home can't resell it to the public for funerary purposes, but can sell it to the furniture manufacturer. Aren't they getting paid for a piece of equipment twice?
Regardless of cool they look, I'd want to know the provenance behind the piece and whether some grieving family got billed for the coffin before I bought it.
Tommyrot, I'm x-posting that in Bitches so Jilli sees it!
