LukeJavan8 Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/08 Posts: 8438 Loc: Land of the Flat Water	Oh my, oh my. Thanks Peter. That is actually better than the attempts the pilot does for the Prince in the book. Your's has the amorous looks of Spring madness. I am appreciative. _________________________ ----please, draw me a sheep----

Tromboniator old hand Registered: 05/10/10 Posts: 954 Loc: Alaska	You're welcome. I don't think I've seen Le Petit Prince in almost fifty years. I read Vol de nuit a couple of years later. Oh! I just discover Le Petit Prince online at http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks03/0300771h.html. Je le lirai, peut-être ce soir.

Pardonez-moi, Pierre mais> it must be Monday on a Friday. I knew there was something special about the sheep, but I could not quite grasp it, and am still having trouble, as I said, Monday on Friday. So you had to spell it out for me so I'd notice. Please continue, because I like it, but am still so thick headed today. Must be the weather, temp dropped to 40 this AM. _________________________ ----please, draw me a sheep----

LukeJavan8 Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/08 Posts: 8438 Loc: Land of the Flat Water	Wow: hope there were not any injuries. Keep us informed. All we get is Osama. I have to tune into the BBC or France24 to get world news, even news in Alaska. I looked and I saw it for a moment and then I'd lose it again. Sort of like those things similar to "Where's Waldo" where you stare and stare and finally a 3D thing jumps out at you. THANKS FOR THE SHEEP _________________________ ----please, draw me a sheep----

LukeJavan8 Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/08 Posts: 8438 Loc: Land of the Flat Water	Just one of those everyday thing, huh? We don't get them here. Not too far from the New Madrid fault down in Missouri, but I've not ever felt one, tho' they say they happen. Probably we'd think it was a train or truck or some such thing. Glad it was not too serious. _________________________ ----please, draw me a sheep----
