Naah...the canny old bugger would be building models. I like to think that there's a little Leonardo in us all mixed in with a little bit of Dr. Frankenstein and other appreciators of contraptions.

Oh dear, pants humour. Here am I giving a serious artistic diatribe and it is hijacked by a toilet joke.

I can see a lot of British units having bad dice rolls in the near future.......... ah the joys of being an umpire .... muhahahaha

Keep those suggestions and hints coming folks.

Aahh Grasshopper, once you can snatch the X-acto knife from my hand you will be ready for the outside world

Great!! I can look forward to making my way in the world with a bald head, wearing a sheet, and never shaking hands with anyone because there is a knife embedded in the palm of my hand..... hmm ..... could be a TV show in this one.... no.... too far fetched.

I have found that a trip to an "Arts and Crafts" store can be fairly productive on occassion. We have a chain of A&C stores named Ben Franklin in Virginia and not finding what I needed at Michaels, I went in there today.

Ornamental Broom -.99cents

Enough coarse weeds/grass to last me a while - $9.99

Caspia - $3.99(used in flower arrangements, makes good small shrubs)

Group shot - $14.97 ... What a deal!
