  1. Totes adorbs. I'd heard of Pee Wee Reese but didn't know much about him. Just googled to learn more. Interesting life.
  2. Oh yes, I remember now. That makes sense.
  3. That brings the name "pigtail" to mind. Wasn't there an Akro with that name?
  4. Thank you very much. And a warm and safe holiday to you, too!
  5. A Thai dessert with pink tapioca clumps and green gelatin-y noodle-y bits in sweet coconut milk. Slurp.
  6. But what does "0xFF" mean? Other than the number 255 ....
  7. Thank you guys for the vaseline eye candy. That's an interesting tidbit about your MFC finds, Brian.
  8. Please everyone stop with the gotchas and poking. We all understand what the other is talking about. Let's keep it about the subject and not the people. Pretty please.
  9. One underlying question is why some marbles seem more prone to orange peel than others. Vacor is well known for orange peel for instance.
  10. I see two distinctions: (1) intentional versus accidental And among the intentional ways to get it: (2) oxblood from batch versus oxblood from aventurine Dave's oxblood has been intentional, albeit not from batch. What other marble makes would have made it intentionally? It's tantalizing to think Alley might have done it knowingly.
  11. No, I haven't been checking any math.
  12. Yes, food for thought for sure
  13. A classic I had to use on someone today.
  14. These are my Dali sparklers ... enhanced by Alan
  15. What? Do I hear sarcasm? I hope! We need a sarcasm emoticon.
  16. That looks like a painting. Swishy brush strokes.
  17. Just to be clear in case I wasn't, the Marble Kings are Alleys. Presumably leftovers bagged by Berry Pink after he bought Alley.
  18. What Galen said. 1940's Alleys from St. Marys like in these bags .... or Vacor Old Fashions.
  19. Galen is right about the marbles needed some sort of numbering system. But better yet, start a new thread for new questions. Just a couple of marbles per thread. It was good to see all your marbles at once to get an overview. Now if we want to get into the nitty gritty, a new thread for new questions will cut down on confusion.
  20. Yes, this is one I thought possibly vintage. It looks a bit like a Peltier Rainbo in this view, but I don't 100% recognize it. So ... it's interesting ..... In other views it looks more like a different style. Like a Master Sunburst. Just ..... different ...... and cool.
