Huette, count your blessings. Devra is in my Kingdom, so we see each other
fairly frequently, frequently enough that I WILL go in and throw her out of
her shop to relax for a few and get something to eat, and she does nothing
but show me More Books I Gotta Have, every time I see her.

You're looking at $700 on a one shot deal. It's much worse when you see her
in person- if I'd had it, I could have easily spent $500 every time I've
seen her, and neither gone OOP nor out of my fields of interest. I figure at
this point, I need several thousand to just catch up- and it's worse every
time I see her.

Devra, you're an evil woman... Just wish I could have sent you more
s/u/c/k/ - er, customers this weekend, but not as many already a/d/d/i/c-
er, "trained" metalsmiths and cooks showd up as I had expected...

OTOH, guys, had a marvelous time discussing and teaching relative newbies
and youngsters my skill- you'll hear more when I unwind a bit.

If you're anywhere near enough, Boredom War in the EK is something many of
you would love ;-) Excellent event, on a beautiful new site ;-)
