Ms Rumba, the jacket and you look fabulous. Will you be making some o'these now that you have a base? The Duchess

So, is the "ACK I've got a date!" fellow, or some other lucky bloke? The Duchess

Is cotton like hay, where if it is baled and pressed slightly damp it will molder. Thus creating heat and smolder ready to burst into flames at the first dose of oxygen? The Duchess

Yeah, there really is something to having your own action figure. Especially when it comes with an accesory pack. The Duchess

Her figures aren't porcelin. They are "porcelin like in appearance." Judging from the fact that she started with a mass produced 12" action figure body they are probably some sort of vinyl or plastic. I have a friend who does this sort of thing. He makes some fairly phenomenal look alikes to various action movie stars. He even made me an action figure of myself! Its pretty impressive. Plus now I can sit around for hours playing with myself...

Most particularly since this Monday has been scientifically proven to be the most depressing day of the year! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4187183.stm

Hmm, I think a while back we had a thread devoted to tall women. I recall that there were quite a number of us there. The Duchess

It occured to me today as I was working on my latest sewing project that I have several yards of the upholstry material used to edge/trim/face your jacket, Skot. I was planning on making a gawahzee coat from it, but ended up using a purple version instead. The Duchess

Welcome back. It's always fun to see old names return. The Duchess

picutres, please.

You must do your hanky panky with finesse.

Relax, and remind yourself that the difference between hanging out with friends, and "on a date" is a very thin little line. Right up until the hanky panky happens, anyway. Run around the block a few times before he shows up, then you'll have an excuse to hyperventillate. The Duchess

Hmm, here we go. 1. Drink Drink as much of whatever you like. Just don't puke on me or anything I own, go away to do that. Don't expect me to like you more when you're drunk, and do expect me to take your conveyence away. 2. Clothes Wear whatever you like. Don't expect me to look at it or like it. Except if there are kiddies around, then cover the swimsuit areas, even if they don't have to. :) 3. Friends Be good to your friends. 4. Behavior Try whatever you like, I'll leave if it bothers me. But remember, other people are looking and probably have cameras. 5. Conquests King of the mountain can be fun, but if you crow too loudly someone will probably push you off. 6. Language Inuendo's are fun and swearing is decoration not substance. 7. My personal bubble has a radius of roughly seven feet. If you're that close and you piss me off, pain or death (depending on the instantaneous verdict) will swift. The Duchess

Looking awfully spiffy! You had better be carefull... The Duchess

...if women ran the world...would missles be shaped different???? Somehow, I think they'd be shaped just like they are. :) The old Love and War adage... The Duchess

Looks great! The Duchess

A Better Business Bureau for piratey shopping experiences. Let's try not to be inflamatory here. Just state the company and a brief description of your experience. This could be a good resource for those of us who do lots of online buying and selling. It can be very difficult to correctly guage the quality of work and customer service by just viewing a website. This doesn't have to be a complaints only section, feel free to cite instances of great service or work.

You could also take a length of fabric twice as wide as you want the sash. The double it over "right sides together" and basically flat stitch a long bag and turn it right side out to finish. The Duchess

On one I used a rolled hem stitch. On the other I just folded it over twice and straight stitched it. My sashes are fairly wide, so I fold them over once or twice, it makes a nice pocket and hides those edges. The Duchess

Hmm, I don't fit any of those. Cut and style is not period, I'd have probably been hung. But I do use only natural products (some sort of fear of burning and shrink wrap) , sew most things myself and aviod hot glue like the plague. The Duchess

I made Guiness pretzels once. They were...a little...solid. I think that is the best description. the Duchess

I better not say anything...... and I already typed the part about a Dirty mind....... If it is really dirty not even the whole ocean can get it clean? The Duchess

You own more scarves and sashes than you have socks. (O'course that could also be "you might be a belly dancer if...") The Duchess

I've listened to it quite a bit since I bought it. I even had a little 25 hour road trip where I conducted a pseudo experiment. I listened to Swagger, Drunken Lullabyes, then the Real McKenzies (Oot and ABoot) and finally Within a mile of Home. My initial opinion still stands. The Duchess
