Pieces of me falling off. And the thermometer gave me a reading of 94-point-something a couple of days ago. I have to consider the possibility that I am a zombie.

No ... it stayed on the bandaid, and then went into the trash. A hunk of me into the trash. Then the hole was covered up by a new bandaid and I posted a whine on facebook before I eventually went back to check to see if my food was burning.

ooooooohhhh! Wonderful display. I have a lot of AMTs in the queue to post soon. Got behind.

Not familiar with Murano ...... Looking forward to the lessons from the folks who are .....

... if your first thought when you first glance at something as amazing as this is to look more closely at the bottom right panel to see if those are marbles .... well, the smaller version which first popped up on facebook looked kinda marbular ...

Ray, I found a place where you posted one which might have been it, but it was hosted at AOL and is gone now. Okay, this is Scott's pic. Is there a Tequila Sunrise in here?

*waves at Ray* Sorry I didn't get on that. Been under the weather. Does Al have the right kind? Should I still go looking. (I did a quick search and didn't come up with it, but I can try again. )

So, I'm trying to eat something substantial for the first time in days and I choose to make a hamburger. As I wash up after making the patty, the bandaid on my hand is loosened, and I figure after you handle raw meat that's probably a good time to change your bandaid anyway .... So I rip it the rest of the way off. And lose a chunk of live skin from my palm. *happy happy joy joy*

Someone pick that trophy and gumball machine up for me. Okay?

*whimper* Yeah ... that's me. Mmmmm, Nyquil. All day long!

Four ribbons? Yeah, not seeing horseshoe.

It would be nice to see cutlines. But Vitro sounds good. I probably wouldn't say horseshoe. Maybe someone else would. I'd push for a little more U-shape. But ?

I don't see cat's eye. Don't know what a blizzard is. Could be an older transparent swirl. Could be a newer Vacor. Not sure at all.

Not seeing enough of the structure. If it's a snake, then that means it's an Akro and there will be one ribbon. It will start on one end and then curve around in a corkscrew pattern until it hits the other end. Sometimes flash can help isolate the structure of transparent marbles. Also, sometimes photographing the marble while underwater can.

Vacor (Mexican, modern)

Also to consult.

Yes! Gotta be more factories like this around the world. Gotta! Tinka, tinka, tinka .... saying it three times so maybe I will remember it. Space reserved for little notes: Started in 1953. Victor Hugo Chiarlo 15 machines along the way San Jorge

Bring 'em on!

Yes. Blue base is special.

Yes.
