The weevil outfit doesn bring out the color in my eyes, don't you think?

And now I'll close with the obligatory foreign quote so as to show I'm not just cute, but erudite, too:

Ich freuden gott geshtunkenen mit ein umlaut und amsterdamen oysterstuffin. Und ralph.
I am not much of an oyster stuffer, myself, but then.. I'm nur verbunden in Deutschen und nicht wie ein teabag durchtränkt. Ja? I thnk I'd Ralph too.
Arleen says ...

"Schreckliche Grammatik, meine Lieben, aber sehr lustig. Besser verbunden als verstopft! Mach weiter so."

(Next time I see Ralph, I'll pass along your message.)

Best wishes,
Jerry

Thank you, thank you... I was seeking just the right (low) level of German proficiency (or rather, 'proficient German' (cough)) to uphold the level I perceived I was responding to... "Schlaapsticht"?... I think?

(honestly, I do know that I know just about enough German to get myself shoved out the train station door for butchering "My ticket will cost how much?", or "Where is the toilet"... of course, with the new upswing in restroom oriented travel guides, I may be in luck on that second one!)

Hey Justin! How's married life?? Yep, my new tatt includes an Awen symbol... naturally.

Take care...

The feminine noun, Awen, has been variously translated as 'inspiration,' 'muse,' 'genius,' or even 'poetic frenzy.' The word itself is formed by combining the two words, aw, meaning 'a fluid, a flowing', and en, meaning 'a living principle, a being, a spirit, essential'. So Awen may be rendered literally as 'a fluid essence', or 'flowing spirit'.

Hi Emm... Martin explained it rather beautifully, so the only other thing I have to add is that the left ray symbolizes feminine energy, the right ray the masculine, and the center ray is the balance of the two.

Oh, the shame

, time to 'fess up.

I cut and pasted it (rather beautifully) from here:

And a finer form in cutting-and-pasting was never seen before, Martin...

Got a new host site for the BHP pages, with *NO* pop-ups or ads!

Now I need to get the recordings done and the music files uploaded... in all my spare time, LOL!

Look for the second page animation, right after it loads...

Edited for poor typing and editing skills... LOL!

I love the possum graphics! You should make t-shirts and tote bags and mugs. It's a very classy logo. But I think the home page should say "WHO - WHAT - WHERE - WHEN - WHY - WHEREFORE" so they're all W's. (Never mind the why and wherefore...")

LOL! I like that! May have to do that... Thanks for your kind words!

We are planning on the Tshirts, and I have a good design ready for bumper stickers too.
