Bulfinch's Mythology, (illustrated version from 78).

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Fuckin A Richard!  :plus:  :viking: I like it. I am considering a fire agate piece from ebay. Later on I may send you a link and ask if you agree to the price for quality if I think I want it. Still mulling it over.

When i was little i can remember my Dad saying  "it fell off the back of a lorry" when describing goods of a dubious origin.

That phenomenon is ongoing.   I am often presented with such items.  Today,  i was presented with a lovely BNIB Samsung Galaxy Note II.   It literally fell off the back of a lorry.

This thread is titled 'what have you bought lately' and i can honestly say i purchased a new case for it.  From Argos.   :zoinks:
blah blah blah

4 bags of good coffee and several cans of bent and dent cans in a box.  Less than 50 cents each.

  It's a shimmering column of light!  It looks as if a beautiful alien might materialize in it at any moment!  :orly:
