lstmmrbls Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Bob, your groupings are some of the most interesting pics on the board. Not only are the pics just plain fun , it is enjoyable trying to see what you are seeing when putting them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbobam Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Appreciate the compliment. I don't encourage anyone to see what I'm seeing, since 'that way madness lies', but thanks very much! ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstmmrbls Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 But Bob, I think we are all a little "mad" already. We collect little balls of worthless glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdesousa Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 But Bob, I think we are all a little "mad" already. We collect little balls of worthless glass. Galen, Something is worthless only if you can't either eat it or make love to it. Can't eat marbles (except paper mache marbles) and Steph probably won't let me tell you what you probably already know about drilling glass marbles and stringing them on a line. Anyhow, I agree we're all a little mad. But marbles aren't completely worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hey Galen, being as worthless as they are....please go right ahead and drop that little showoff box you carry around in the mail to me asap. I would hate to see you get mugged over something so worthless. Just lookin out for you buddy! =} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 the glass of the balls is worthless. We give them value as collectors. A ball of gold is not worthless you can smash it flatten it, heck grind it into dust it still has worth. Not a glass marble .I would send them to you Paul, but the case they are in is worth $32,000.00 (LOL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbobam Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks Winnie! Great marble. The second view looks like there's a another blue and white marble inside an orange-striped one! I was wondering something about Steph's Akro last night, but wasn't quite sure what it was. Think I have it now. Want to know if that marble in-hand would look pretty much like it does in the photo. There's something about the colors that's both 'bold' and 'pastel' at the same time. It made me wonder if 'cranking up the contrast' would make it less or more accurate. Maybe the way this one is making my brain waves go back and forth is exactly what makes it special. ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbobam Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Because of the light reflections, these look like 'smileys' to me. #1 doesn't really work. But: #2 is definitely angry and/or dissapointed, and #3 and #4 are happy and possibly drunk. ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
