Dare I ask what is 'green water'?

Bobbins are usually a one size fits all sort of thing. Some take plastic, others take metal. I know my mom use to have a very old Singer and she used the regular metal bobbins in it. If they are truly a strange design, then I suggest you contact some sewing stores that specifically work on sewing machines and such. Those people would or should be pretty knowledgeable on bobbins and such.

Thank you so much Ransom and Graydog! The information was quite useful and I think Boats understands more now.

I just would like one to put on my car that has a skull and crossbones and the saying: Nothing in this vehicle is worth your life.

Well I'd like a 'green fairy' with the wings removed and preferred roasted over an open fire.... Welcome! I was at Pyrate Con too!

Hubba hubba hubba! What some great materials! I have a pretty good idea now of why you have so much fabric....

Well I'm going next week -during the day to see it. I can't wait for a great romp of fun!

It's hard to tell exactly where the fire is, as the news here is rather spotty. Anywhere near Aptos?

I finally feel like I have been granted peace of mind thanks to someone else.

I'm asking for my other half, Boats. He wants to know where he can get real black powder? He's bought some that were "suppose" to be, but they fouled his gun up pretty bad and would not ignite. The last time he went out to the desert a couple of months ago, he literally had to light the flash hole with a barbeque lighter in order to get rid of all the gunky supposed gun powder stuck in in his gun. The lighter worked, but he certainly doesn't want to go through that again. He also has concerns about companies shipping black powder. Any help from you very knowledgeable people would be great! Thanks, Rumba

LMAF!!! Must be all those swords you have!

Well, Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other, and finally they got married, and had a little sweet potato, which they called 'Yam.' Of course, they wanted the best for Yam. When it was time, they told her about the facts of life. They warned her about going out and getting half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed, and get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato,' and end up with a bunch of Tater Tots. Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her! But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become a Couch Potato either. She would get plenty of exercise so as not to be skinny like her Shoestring cousins. When she went off to Europe, Mr. and Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for the hard-boiled guys from Ireland. And the greasy guys from France called the French Fries. And when she went out west, to watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped. Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and wouldn't associate with those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from the other side of the tracks who advertise their trade on all the trucks that say, 'Frito Lay.' Mr. and Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University) so that when she graduated she'd really be in the Chips. But in spite of all they did for her, one-day Yam came home and announced she was going to marry Tom Brokaw. Tom Brokaw! Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset. They told Yam she couldn't possibly marry Tom Brokaw because he's just...... Are you ready for this? Are you sure? * * OK! Here it is! * * * * A COMMON TATER ********************************************************* Jamaican Sandals While on vacation a married couple walked into a shoe store. The Salesman said to them, 'I have some very special Jamaican sandals I tink you would be interested in. Dey make you wild at sex.' Well, the wife was really interested in buying the sandals after what the man claimed, but her husband felt he really didn't need them, being the sex god he was. The husband asked the man, 'How could sandals make you into a sex freak?' The Jamaican replied, 'Just try dem on, Mon.' So, the husband, after Some badgering from his wife, finally gave in, and tried them on. As soon as he slipped them onto his feet, he got this wild look in his eyes, something his wife hadn't seen in many years! In the blink of an eye, the husband grabbed the Jamaican, bent him violently over a table, yanked down his pants, ripped down his own pants, and grabbed a firm hold of the Jamaican's hips. The Jamaican then began screaming, 'You got dem on the wrong feet! You Got dem on the wrong feet!

I had some brief trouble, but then I got a message saying they were trying to avoid hackers and therefore were requesting people change their passwords. That was a couple of weeks back, not having any problems now.

Man do I understand that! Disney has the strictest rules of any business I've ever come across. Just ask Iron Bess. Let's put it this way, I was taking a vocational class ( many years ago) and I was put in the back in the warehouse. Because I couldn't take the standing after day 2, I told the Supervisor about my situation and asked if I could go up to the Employment office to see if there was something else I could do that would be easier on me. When I got up to the office, I was told because I walked off the job I was fired. No amount of reasoning would be listened to. I've heard very similar stories from people too. Don't work for Disney unless you like getting your butt kicked a lot. (Sorry Iron Bess, nothing against you who has worked so diligently there at Disneyland and at the Studio)

May your strings never break!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ONE SLICK DOG!

I'd like to start this week over.......

Using a 10 mexapixel Sony digital (Boat's just had to have the top of the line). It can take some incredible pictures, but we've had a bit of trouble with the stabilizer and some pictures came out fuzzy when we were standing absolutely still....go figure. I've finally gotten through all the pictures, so when I get them all uploaded somewhere, those that want to see them can. Rumba
