OT:Snipes

As I said when I introduced myself a while back, I've only been reading the
newsgroup
for a couple weeks but already I have seen Lucretia Borgia (good name, hon!)
GO OUT OF HER WAY to pick a fight with Mirjam, twice no less!
What is new is for Mirjam to sink to her level---so much better to just
ignore it dear and stick to embroidery and other needlework-I note you have
tried. Guess I've thrown my hat in the ring....<sigh>
Gee what a surprise, hostility about the middle east-go figure!
Will ignore new snipes from Ms. borgia ...I guess she's an old hand here
but she sure does rile up folks...not just Mirjam it seems..
I would like to scan the two pieces that are my XS WIPS but haven't had a
chance.
I invite you to visit my picturetrail album where there is both embroidery
and (mostly) crochet items that I've made. When I used to read this NG years
ago, there were now picture albums nor blogs...what a nice treat to be able
to see everyone's work!
I thank the person who suggested that I bring my projects to the hospital
when I have my surgery, but I would hate to contaminate them, as infection
is part of the reason I'm going in-an infected wound as well as a non-union
of my broken femur (from last October no less!) I guess I'm going to
contaminate some books however!
The Power of Now is keeping me sane since there have been so many ups &
downs to this saga...but this is really OT!!
ttfn,
Marilyn in Oregon

Eons ago, a wise person told me that there's always at least 3 ways to
do (or say) anything; a corrolary (spelling????) is 'there's a right
way, a wrong way, and my way.' This last is quite true of rctn

This is a much more interesting thread than I thought it might be!
Thanks to all! (I expected somebody to be writing about the bird -- a
Wilson Snipe is about the size of and similar in coloration to a
quail, but with a trim, rather sleek body, slightly longer legs, and a
long, slender beak -- neat little critter!)

There are also snipes that are wonderful, fast little racing dinghies.
