| Finished signing off on the tax returns... Had to stop at the AD's to look for a new bracelet... hmmm, ohhh, that's nice... cool... yes, I saw bracelets; and some had watches attached. Robin says, "Your newest watch isn't even on your wrist yet. It's somewhere over the Pacific" "Yeah, I have a sickness," was all I could come up with. One that Mr. AD showed us, I saw the look in Robin's eyes... she almost pulled the trigger for me. She's an enabler, I tell ya, |

| I'll take her with me when the bracelet comes in. They're also expecting my Tutima's return from Germany shortly, so two possible trips across town coming up. BTW, two of the ones looked at today have black dials, and she says "You already have a couple black ones. They're nice, but how many black dials?" Soooo... that's when we looked at the other that her finger twitched on. |

Do some HONEY DOs, that always helps me Hell, being home, I do so much, she never gives them to me. Her weakness is where we're going tonight, our local Argentine bistro. |

| One of the other pieces, that was really cool to see, was a Breguet skeleton pocket watch from the 1880's, that sometime in the early part of the 1920's (according to the owner), someone fabricated and attached lugs to, making it a wrist watch. They had just finished servicing it at the AD's. Very cool to see a piece that old, running, and keeping what my AD called "pretty decent time." |

Whoa Tim, that does sound cool ! I can imagine how surprised you must have been to see something like that. It's neat seeing how different people enjoy this hobby ! ____________________________________ | |
