  1. We all went in on lottery tickets and won, so now we're all millionaires. Sorry you weren't here to get in on it.
  2. Thanks for reassuring me that these are real. Here's a good English word for you if you don't know it yet .... "smithereens". You familiar with that one?
  3. Cute .... but on a serious note ... Schiller sounds like what causes fire in marbles with striations ... maybe?
  4. My turn soon. Camera found. Marbles chosen. /end tease
  5. A neat list of adjectives for describing different kinds of luster and sparkle and iridescence -- Bob sent it to me. Nice pics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustre_(mineralogy)
  6. That would be a very nice display ... plus a nice way to keep oneself selective. I like it a lot. Need to remember.
  7. I'll vote yes. A slightly fuzzy vote though.
  8. Looks like we're in for six more weeks of winter. I can dig it!
  9. I covet charm strings. Hoping to come across one for a nice price in the wild. I stored my buttons in different ways like I did my marbles. Sometimes little baggies, sometimes in partitioned trays in Riker cases, sometimes bubble wrap lined boxes.
  10. That PPP is something else! Makes me think of an eyeball as drawn in an anatomy text.
  11. Like! Czech, yes? I might get into buttons again. I mostly sold off my buttons which I started collecting shortly before getting into marbles. I kept a couple of couple of different, interesting glass buttons. *putting it in queue to get pictures of*
  12. Sometimes I wonder if people make up words for these lists. I hope these are real. http://mentalfloss.com/article/28315/15-wonderful-words-no-english-equivalent
  13. Happy Groundhog Day. My favorite day of the year.
  14. How lovely (everyone) I have a fondness for contemps with specially designed stands made to match
  15. Nice randomizing! Great pic! MY pop would have known what kind of bike that was.
  16. Peanut Patch brand boiled peanuts .... I approve.
  17. .... I did a google search for a Tabasco sulphide ..... no luck
  18. I now have an idea for my turn .... and as soon as I find the box with my camera I'll join in.
