Most apropos with the gansey. :-)<BR/><BR/>Commentary on all the news programs/ Sunday morning political programs are in overdrive on debating strongest campaign, it is over for Hillary, etc. Conventional wisdom here seems to believe that Hillary must win both Texas and Ohio to remain in the race. Latest polls seem to show Obama taking Texas. I can't watch this stuff without thinking of you and what opinions you would have on viewing it all.<BR/><BR/>Ralph Nader announcing his presidential campaign on Meet The Press this past Sunday has barely caused a ripple.stash haushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10244605573080920528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-21210040835475252552008-02-27T20:53:00.000+00:002008-02-27T20:53:00.000+00:00Is there someone involved with the Games competiti...Is there someone involved with the Games competition that you could ask for a clarification of the rules? Sometimes people are unnecessarily terse. Would it make a difference if the "sweater with motif" had the same motif repeated?<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I comment, mostly I don't because I'm trying to make only useful comments. I urge people to check out Shandy's blog.

I'm not a very good commenter either. I'm sorry about that.<BR/>I always look forward to seeing your progress on the Gansey... and before that, the Princess Shawl.Calliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03387113235256571166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-41241987992726086042008-02-27T15:24:00.000+00:002008-02-27T15:24:00.000+00:00Hi, JeanI mostly lurk but I after reading Shandy's...Hi, Jean<BR/><BR/>I mostly lurk but I after reading Shandy's comment and remembering something I heard this morning, it seem like I ought to de-lurk more often if I'm enjoying a blog. (unless it routinely gets hundreds of comments) The statement I heard this morning was in relation to a fundraiser that needed 559 more donations in the next hour. The commentator said, "so if you think it will happen without you, you're wrong." Decent life philosophy.<BR/><BR/>I'm curious about those turkish slippers. Has the Ugg boot craze hit your shores? There was a felted pattern in IK a few years back that looked like fun. but I can't remember enough specifics to know if it would suit.Barca Violahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716626154893889858noreply@blogger.com
