Happy Birthday, Iris!
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

Thanks, but that sounds like the same version that was linked before. The strings and cabaret sound on the number - are those Clint's? If so, seriously double cool. That just seemed out of character for any song he'd ever do, even as a cover.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Beth, that's a great picture of Percy.
Oh yeah, and the floor looks good too.

Thanks! We think he is quite handsome. I am hoping to get better pictures of the tile next to dinning room floor, but we need to clean up a bit first

All is well that ends in pizza.

That is indeed the very one I linked to.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Now, I can kinda see how it might be one of those things where it just takes 4-6 weeks for the shirts to be made and shipped out, but no where on the site that I have seen specifies that, so I just do not know when to expect them to ship out.My Uncle was printing T-shirts for awhile. He would wait until he got enough orders on one print and do a batch of them. Considering it takes about 10 minutes to print the transfer, heat up the iron, line it up, and press it down, it seemed a bit crazy. If someone orders it, send it out. It's not like he was a high volume shop. Maybe these guys order the shirts made rather than make themselves, so they wait until enough are ordered to get the bulk discount. Dunno.
VW, hope CDB is ok. next time say "stay safe".
Hey, how are all the CA folks doing? Sounds like the wild fires are super wild, and not in the fun way.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Billytea - all the it's nothing ~ma in the world. Everything will be ok. . Love to you all.
That's very kind of you. Though I feel obliged to point out that it was Typo Boy doing the ma-seeking. (I wouldn't want him to go ma-less on my account.)
I am in fact having a great time here. Wallybee's parents have been staying with us for the past fortnight. It's been good having them around, Wallybee's been so happy seeing them again. I think they're pretty impressed with my Chinese, and with my beef-roasting skills, which I broke out today. (Along with a Yorkshire pudding, because after all, roast beef.)
Yesterday we all went to the zoo. I'm very sure they're impressed with just how many animal names I know in Chinese. It was a fantastic day too. The weather was perfect, the echidnas were active, the golden pheasant displayed to us (I've never seen one displating before), the Lady Amherst's pheasant came out to give us a clear view (those two are my favourite pheasants; or at least they were, the tragopan's courtship ritual is providing stiff competition). Wallybee especially liked the orangutans (they have a new enclosure, with a puzzle-maze the orangs can push peanuts around to get hold of them). Her parents were particularly impressed with the aviary, and with my reaction on seeing the echidnas were active.
This is the best weekend I've had in some time, it's been really quite relaxing. (Can I add, what a difference it makes getting on with one's in-laws.) Oh, you'd think having them around would help my Chinese; but when they're together they all speak Shanghainese.
