That's true, and it does rain hard most afternoons this time of year.

Karis, the one in my pic is a a tree frog. Look at his suction cup toes. They have no problem climbing up the side of a building. In the morning look out at the sides of the windows, they hang out there during the day.

It's true, my apologies, he's probably a very lovely, albeit S C A R Y, frogamander.

This morning and for the next three days through Saturday September 14th I will be working at another Coin Show. Luckily this time the show is only 12 miles from where I live so I can go home each evening to crash and sleep in my own bed.....

Everyone take it easy and don't let life hit you in the butt...take care and behave yourselves!!!

Take care.....Leo

Leo,

I'm into quartz watches now, I've done manual winding and automatic watches as well as clocks so I'm pretty much seeing the last type of watches I need to see when it comes to basic ones (I still have to take a look at more compicated ones but that will be later on in my formation and the basics will be covered).

It's interesting to work on a quartz watch, you see quite a few things that you can work on and you think that unless we're talking about a 5$ watch it would be well worth it to have them serviced or repaired if something goes wrong, there's much more to be repaired in those things then one would think.

...The only bad side is that it's quite boring! There are some wheels and gears indeed but it's not as interesting since you know that once you put in the coil and the electronic circuit board things work and you don't quite see it as clearly as a mechanical watch.

Is that the second one!? I played The Dark Descent (screamed like a little girl all the way through) as well as Justine (the add-on in TDD), I wish I could play that one as well but, alas, the fact that I'm in an apartment makes me wonder if it's a good idea, I don't want to annoy my neighbors!
