  3. This was a great, I like the "olfactory experience".;) The picture is fun too, brings back my childhood, in fact particularly my sister - as her favorite toy was a monkey.;) She still has him to this day.;)

  14. Never know what you'll pull out of the barrel these days, that's for sure. And I do hate those unpleasant olfactory experiences! What a great giggle for the morning, Nessa! Hope you have a lovely week!

  16. Must have had too many windows open at once. Makes me wonder how many other comments went into the electronic dustbin.

    I just said I thought a seeing eye monkey is a great idea. I could see himriding around on the seeing eye dog and taking things from the shelves at grocery stores. Or, maybe not.
