Thanks for the offer, majroj, but I've decided not to upset Ell's natural order as she sees it.  I haven't bothered telling her I'm right - it's not worth the hassle.

I'll email her if that would help.

I am not worthy, I am not worthy!

Hey!  You mean I'm right about something - I must tell Ell, not that she'll believe me anyway.

Pedantics, My Specialty
I stand corrected. Also sit, kneel and walk. Except after yard work.

Come to think of it Taps, I wouldn't dream of reading a 'vomit' heading either.  Thank you for breaking your rule - and for the compliment.

I don't usually read anything with the word "vomit" in the title, but I made and exception for you, because you are special.

Well that's me told off, majroj.  I was always under the impression that MOLD was the American way of spelling MOULD.  Who knew it was something else altogether?

Not only can the little creamers be confusing, they can be vomit inducing. Thanks for the info young man.

That's od, majroj.  I was thinking about Gomedome yesterday - must have been when you first thought of the connection.  I used to love Gomedome's posts.  I wonder how he is doing now with his innovative and inventive mind?  Whatever it is, I hope it is successful.

JMcN, your auction stories remind me of Gomedome's

MOLD is fungus, a tool to lend form to cement and the like, and shaped strips of wood.

MOULD is soil, usually forest duff.

Some "creamers" in the little cups advertise no refrig needed while others definitely do. Could be confusing.

Yep, she always has the right answer sam444.  She ended up with just over $300.00 worth of jewelry.  There wasn't anything that took my fancy - well, nothing I'd pay those prices for.

It certainly wasn't the kind of day I was expecting, Pat.   Normally I can shut the noise out if there is too much, but the trainee had a voice like a foghorn and he planted himself in front of us.  Still, it was an experience - I might be able to write an article or a blog about it, or use it somehow.

Good answer by Ell! I think it needed to be two days from the way you write it up, too! Now, did you buy anything after all that waiting? sam

Sounds like a terrible way to spend a holiday -- in a crowd
of shouters, and moldy coffee cups. Yuck!  But I have to agree with Ell. Woman guts and man guts are different. Viva!
