First of all..........Ray, your strange............ ............... ...............j/k. "Pet a grasshopper"..............OK

here goess.........i had this hook (Alex Hayes light wire), in the vise........one-a-the-vises.........lol..........and had a fly goin' on it........but i was stuck, as to what to do next. The fly had two or three of the elements (parts of the recipe), finished already and i just didn't exactly know where i was gonna go next.........well, it's finished. i call it, The Ass-Backwards Grasshopper From Mars. And your gonna need one hell of an imagination.......rotmfflmaffao.

It wasn't until hank went postal, that i got the idea as to how to finish the fly.........thankx hank..........some strange ****......... .......go figure.
The cool thing that is always reapearing and restating itself, is that you are all an inspiration, each "In Your Own Sweet Way."

i'll be beging Misa to take a pic and send it to my email tomorrow.....Sat. But i gotta get a couple more "coats" on it first.....at least.

w-h, Howdy;

Glad to have been of some sorta help

Postal..... Honest,... I only worked the Fleet PO in Naples, IT during the Christmas rush back in '69 and again in '70.
Drove the truck back-n-forth to Roma twice a day...........

hank you know i was just bein' colorful........... ...........gotta stay consistant Bro!

first time i was ever in Rome......was the first gig, on my first tour of Europe, in July of '83.........60K people in the audience, in the Circus Maximus, two stages, concert promoter was the communist party, and Ornet Coleman was opening for us.....well, my boss and his band........i look out at this sea of people........and try to imagine the chariots running around in circles...........it was a way cool scene. Next morning, when i had to pay the bill for my almost wiped out mini bar.....that weren't to cool..... But, it's a good way to learn to have parties in someone elses room.....

Mark- It is my understanding that some Japanese children would traditionally keep grasshoppers as pets in tiny wooden cages. Ask Misa about it. She may agree, or she may just confirm I am crazy.
