Craft Threads Is the posting of an Art or Craft thread itself, an art or a craft? I believe that everyone is seeking a better way to get people to view a thread like that, therefore it must be art. However, I prefer to view my threads regardless of what others say, therefore it is merely a hobby or craft for me. Where to go? What to do? What time is it? This conundrum has me so puzzled that I forgot to water my trees! I do have a nice collection of pots, however, and plenty of slightly used bonsai soil for sale... __________________ Sashi-no-eda.blogspot.com

How do you know that it was lack of water that killed them? If it was, can you prove it in less than six seconds? I might be interested in buying some of your pots if any of them are green. Pretend that I am a blind man that has just read your posting--can you describe these pots to me (especially the green ones as they are the hardest to describe)? How will I know you are not just pretending to describe them? I look forward to reading your reply. I must first pretend to get my sight back. Regards, heyMikey!! ps. All your green crayons are belong to us.

I am pretending you are a blind man and wondering how you just read my post. I am also pretending that my trees have miraculously recovered and look just like they did yesterday...Anyway, all my pots are green Tokonoma ware of ancient origin and worth millions. Send a check. __________________ Sashi-no-eda.blogspot.com

He'll get the picture Mike __________________ Bonsai is not a hobby. Bonsai is a way of life. MP@BBB Studio There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way Gautama Buddha
