Here's something just for you from "Love..Actually"..

BY JONI MITCHELL
Rosen flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons ev'rywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on ev'ryone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As ev'ry fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living ev'ry day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

Kool... About you being in the precious and semi-precious gem business.. there is so much stuff out there, that is so much cheaper than a person can buy here.. I don't have an importer's license. Do you? We have a friend that does though.. We brought as much stuff back as we could. Nice jewelry,carvings etc..

You know when we were in Australia, we made friends with a woman who ran a opal shop in Cairns who worked directly for the family that owned the mine.. Nice stuff.. Mary got some nice stuff relatively cheap. But that was a couple of years ago when the Aussie dollar was cheaper....

And in Moorea, Nice black pearls a lot cheaper but they are tougher to deal with as they have to be in a climatic controlled environment or they might check.. :(
