Student Union is one thing; union of students is just wrong.

Not if I can help it.(LOL)  Even I'd have to figure out egg in the eye, 
especially since I don't like eggs much. The smell turns me green first 
thing in the morning.

->  RH> Yeah well.  I wish I had a string of those beads. I do have a 
necklace

Nope - I definitely don't have anything like that.

Good for him.  It'll help the legs too, especially learning to deal with
any 
nerve deficits.  
 
->  RH> I've got a button scissor here that isn't good even for that.  No 
clue
->  RH> where that came from.  Grandma's sewing machine is still in
->  regular use.
-> 
-> I don't know if either of my grandmothers had a sewing machine. I have
-> my maternal grandmother's wooden cutting board, a biscuit/doughnut
-> cutter, garlic press and a few other small kitchen tools. Also have some
-> of my paternal grandmother's cookie cutters-- some may have been her
-> mother's.

Grandma's machine was bought with my uncle in-law's employee discount, some 
time in the 60s.  My other grandmother's machine was a pre-WWI treadle.  
Still have it, but it needs servicing if someone were to want to use it.  
My dad was an only child, and the contents of Grandma's house were moved up 
here in the 60s, so we have a lot of her things even now.  Some kitchen 
stuff went in a tag sale about 15 years ago, but we have plenty of other 
things.
