    It could be perfect in the right setting. [/quote]

    I agree... I'm envisioning lots of dark wood paneling and deep red velvet, for starters....

    馃槃 I love this visual. You saying to the piano "ok, you can visit, but you can't stay" and the piano "aww, dang it. Ok."

    The coup rolls on.

    Tuesday's order provides new details on how government agencies will work with DOGE to reduce the size of the federal workforce, and calls on the heads of federal agencies to "promptly undertake preparations to initiate large-scale reductions in force." The order did not specify a range of how many workers may be affected and lose jobs.

    The order also sets out new guidelines around hiring. It says each agency should hire no more than one employee for every four employees that depart. Additionally, the order calls on agency heads to consult with a "DOGE Team Lead" around hiring approvals.

    Less than three weeks after its release, President Donald Trump鈥檚 memecoin has produced more losers than winners. For every dollar in trading fees the Trump crypto creators raked in, investors lost $20.

    A total of 813,294 wallets holding cryptocurrency lost money through ownership of $TRUMP meme token shares in the 19 days since its launch, according to an analysis by cryptocurrency forensics company Chainalysis commissioned by the New York Times. The losses鈥攁ccumulated as users either held onto shares of the coin as its value plummeted, or because they sold shares at a loss鈥攖otaled about $2 billion..

    We know about Doggerland in part because fishing craft have periodically hauled up evidence of land-based plants (ancient wood and tree trunks) and human settlement from the ocean floor of that part of what is now the North Sea.

    Thanks for this.
    I've been thinking of going to Hurstwood Farm pianos near Sevenoaks and this Piano Shop in Tunbridge is only a few miles south.

    @wtg He was part of the original "Free State Project" here in NH, having moved from WA. We all know how that turned out. Look up the book, "A Libertarian Walks Into A Bear".

    That was a beautiful eulogy from Sheryl. I remember seeing pictures of a few of Teachum's quilts on FB and especially remember one remarkable example that she had completely hand stitched, irrc. I also remember her posts about her garden.

    Here you go, Andy. My error-- yellow not rose gold.

    There have been decades of great ultra-thins from several companies.

    I owned an original Jaeger-LeCoultre ultra-thin with solid case back, stainless steel with silver dial. Selling it is one of my few regrets.

    But this ultra-thin is the most perfect one in my humble opinion.

    I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I could find 25k of loose change under my couch cushions.
