Don't forget font-size...  :-)


Use 45....then when you write "this state sucks" it will take up the whole page....
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Is this an assignment?  How long does my report have to be?  Single or double spaced?

Think of it as a quest :-)

No report is needed, but there will be a test.  :lmao:

There is a Frank Lloyd Wright house in Dallas that I really like.  I saw it when I was very very young.  I told myself I would live in it one day.  I lied to myself.

There's one very similar in St Louis. I met the owner, who commissioned the house from FLW. The owner was very, very old. He told me about FLW visiting him while the contruction was going on. FLW wore one of his capes. The owner was a little old man who wore an ascot tie and beret.

It is now owned by STL County and they do tours. I've been thinking of becoming a docent there and learning to give tours of the place. I love visiting various FLW creations around the US.

I hope so. Right now you're in the armpit of the state.

Nah, she's behind the Orange Curtain--not as bad as LA County.  Besides--San Fran is the armpit.  LA is the asshole of CA.

Hey, Beg it's a beautiful house, and I know you will make it a wonderful home. Debk, I love your house as well. Maybe one of these days, we will find the home right for us.We both love the older style homes.
