    A great Good Morning, all! Huge storm moved thru a bit ago (just rebooted computer). Oh, Chicago, where the winds come whistlin' 'cross the plains... sort of anyhow, the sky turned a sickly shade of green-gray, the rain sheeted, and my neighbor lost power (for a change out grid is OK). Flea market report: pretty much similar stuff as reported last week on the refugee board. Old, vintage tools were selling. In the post card area (I asked): real photo shots of small towns from 19th-early 20th c., and small town businesses, and old trucks/cars were "hot." Also, and I found this interesting antique holiday cards, esp. ones for Thanksgiving? Why? Is poultry "hot"? no answer for that.Now, with thanks to my unpaid, but ever enthusiastic PR folk (lludwig and wellington), I would be greatly honored to have a permanent spot on this board. I can't imagine why there would be a need for a permanent spot, but IF it were open to ALL chat members, then, as we say in the Midwest, "It's OK by me."

    The old BB saw the publication of 4 of my books. People celebrated with me, and many BB'ers helped with them along the way. I received data and persimmon pulp, books and encouragement from many, many posters. In fact, the books would have been far less rich in content had it not been for their help. My life (and I mean this sincerely) has been greatly enriched because of the on-line and in-person friendships I have made, all facilitated by the BB. Thank you all! (end of speech).
