this is from my favorite question sequence in the DCIS interview; nothing compares to asking someone my grandma's age about her sexual functioning

Purchased 10/19/06. I finally broke down and bought the thing. He had it on promo. Came with a pretty cool graphic (rat fink is always cool, regardless of his history) and with a free hutch. It's hard for the tool trucks to carry hutches around with them, so it's coming via UPS in a couple weeks. This thing was way more than I wanted to pay, and it put me off buying the house for another year, but there was no more tricks to be had with my roll around. It was giving up.
Origin and location of my Flicker Art Work and Photography
Someone had asked me if whether this is my phone number and my simple reply is no. This is simply my zipcode location among what is other millons of zipcode locations in all of the United States. A zipcode is a geographical general location and it is not a telephone number. You might have 5000 people who live in a geographical zipcocde. You might have two or three millon people who might occupy it.

The great rarity of this chair lies in the original wool Turkey-work that covers its seat and back. “Turkeywork” refers to a type of woven fabric with a knotted-and-cut wool pile that was made in England in imitation of Turkish carpets. Used for chairs, cushions, and table coverings, the fabric was exported in matching sets for chairs. Decorative fringe once covered the row of nails around the seat and back. Simple chair frames of this sort were also commonly upholstered in leather or plain wool fabric.
