[lace-chat] Olympics

2004-08-14 Thread Jane Viking Swanson
Hi All,  I'm back from the IOLI Convention and finally got to sleep
late today so I can write e-mail .  Anyway,  I watched the
beginning of the opening ceremonies of the Olympics last night.
I may have the end on tape but I'm not sure.  I loved what I saw.
The people made up like statues were fascinating to me.  And
they looked like Minoan sculptures and the other things they
were supposed to look like!  The math part was neat and I saw
a hula hoop that was like a giant Slinky (spring)!  I really love
seeing some of the techniques used for stage shows - one
group of women had on dresses with three flounces made of
board or something and the flounces moved independentely of
each other.  There were also waves done in the same manner.
I have a note here about fish in the sea but I don't know what
that means .

Now I'm watching the opening day events and trying to figure
out what channels have Olympics on them.  We have cable
because otherwise you don't get anything here.  So far I've
found three channels with different sports on them.  I got to see
the Thorpedo in one swimming heat .  Wasn't he about 18
at the Sydney Olympics?  He looks like a handsome man now!  Actually there
is quite a bit of eye candy .

Jane in Vermont, USA where the sun is out!!  Rain from the next
hurricane is on the way :(  I hope all the lacers in the path of that
are doing okay!

[lace-chat] SP thank you

dear  secret pal 

good news: i went to the post office this morning to get my parcel from 
Australia 
bad news : it was open and when i checked with the list you had written on 
the green label the ornament was missing and also probably the card :i had 
the CD ( fantastic . i'll take it with me to my office . it'll add the 
touch of nature needed to make work tolerable  ) the note pad with its 
gorgeous soft coloured frog , the pencil , the little book of calm 
(very useful  . i'll carry it in my pocket to have a quick look when 
needed .. VBG) and the three skeins of cotton thread .(such pretty colours) 
... 
 
it seems i shouldn't have taken the parcel but sent it back to sender so 
you could file a complaint on your side of the planet ...  it wasn't the 
same clerk behing the counter when i went back to the post office to say 
something had been stolen and she nearly accused me of cheating .. i came 
out fuming ... but i live in a part of town where some people make a living 
out of such things so . she wasn't entirely wrong ...

i have kept the envelope . if you need it just tell me and i'll post it 
back .. this makes me wonder whether the July envelope will reach me at all 
... but it doesnt matter . i know it left Australia and  you didn't forget 
me ..  the Post Office is not what it used to be ..

a lot of thanks again 
wondering what september is keeping in store for us ... hugs

dominique
