A lot of people don't understand other species. That is a pretty Zen Twain quote. I tried to understand it, but it's bumpy. . I was off trying to locate ~ jeez, if I could just "remember" ~ my favorite Twain quote, but I cant' find it or remember. I did find an Ogden Nash, America's great motorist:

"If called by a panther, don't anther."

I read a book once, where Twain described a visit to the dentist. I laughed hard enough I hurt my sternum. I can't remember any of that, either, except a part where he said the dentist yanked so hard on the tooth he pulled all Mark's bones out and they had to carry him home in a pillow sack.

The Ruby Yacht of Omar Khayyam, and Search for the Kerwood Derby hurt my sternum too.

I'll get smore haiku. (That's plural.)

If you think about it, if you had a thousand eyes and a small brain, that wouldn't be good.

It would be confusing.
As a matter of fact, it would suck.
Worse.

Hi penni!

To you and anyone else who might be interested, I finally, finally got the website done. It can be found at: www.enamelist.com

It has some interesting stuff - demonstrations, enamels by another enamelist, and of course, my gallery.

Let me know what you think!

(crinoids) >it is well known that they are sadly lacking in creative ability.<

But they have unparalleled tenacity. They rubbed, uhm, chitin with the trilobites. They studiously ignored the fantastic Play-Doh critters of the Burgess Shale. The trilobites are gone for waht, 400 million years now. The crinoids homesteaded on some unpopular real estate - and they're now ignoring the dolphins.
Creative? Like a rock. But staying power to make Jesse Helms look like an amateur.
