Orange vs redish---Vacor "Michelangelo" for me but consider a Vacor "Tornado"--the big ones do not act as well as the smaller ones. Nice find!! Marble--On!!

akroorka replied to shiroaiko's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Said with great grace my friend---the se'ance thing is out of line imho. We all research marbles shiroaiko. We all have to keep our wits about us when we are challenged. I try to keep this place clean and accept arguments as well-----the se'ance thing, I do not like to see it posted here at "TheMarbleConnection". You will be challenged with what you consider as fact and many consider as---well-- out there a bit from what we are used to. Patience is the key with any collectable--Marble collecting reqiures a bit more than most. I appreciate what you are posting to the maximum as well as any here. Please do not get Pissed when you are challenged. Lashing out is not good for this board--or any disccusion as far as that goes. I just ask you to keep ---- the "ego" in check---- and of course--- Marble On!! -
Thanks Alan--for looking again. I will defer to you assessment.---but it is quite convincing to the untrained eye.( you have to agree here😁) Marble-On!!

Shrioaiko , You have stood up quite with the doubters with grace. I do not know if you are man or women and I could care less. Just keep it coming. I, for one, appreciate what you are giving us here. Marble--On!! -
There is one thing about nets--you can check them before you buy them. Slow down and check them first. A buy and grab never does any one any good. You can blame the seller all that you want to--I would blame "me" "Myself and I" for a bad purchase in your shoes. I will always blame myself for a bad purchase--always---- Marble On!!

Ragnar was a barn cat that kept creeping inside of where he previously lived to beat up the house cat. I took him in just because of the chipmunk invasion. I kept him in a crate for two weeks in the garage--of course I took care of him--after that I let him out and walked him around the yard, he followed me around like a dog listening to what I had to say. He was an orange "Tabby". He defended his ground but just played with the chipmnks and let them go..My prevoius 0range "Tabby"--Larry--was a much better hunter--he ate them. Now--today at least, we have a rescue center about 500 yards from our house. They fix strays and then let them go.. There are plenty of cats around for sure. I Have three dogs and cats are not in my future. I remember a young Vet telling my that Larry/Ragnar sounded more like a tool than a pet. They were both for sure. These two cats, even though they lived in the garage or outside were two of the few animals that I trusted with my grandkids--so gentle!
