Anyone got some gasoline, a match, and stop watch?

Any bets on how fast and how many fire trucks it takes to put this much kindling out?

With only a book on the art of Trompe-l'œil, and 100 liters of paint, Skeezit figures the tax appraiser will just pass his building right by.

But then again I am Polish-Swedish & Norwegan......Ski, climb mountains and fall down a lot, and she still loves me.

I've heard of the market and have always wanted to go there!

I hear that you can purchase just about anything in the market? Any truth about that? Maybe next spring I'll find out for sure when Mrs. Moosie and I visit the UK and Ireland for vacation!!!! [Mrs. Moosie has Irish aunts and uncles (her 85 Y.O. mum's siblings) + a rash of first cousins living throughout the UK....most are located in the greater London Metroplex area and Manchester area.]

I mentioned to the Super that it would be nice to have a couple chairs in the courtyard. I don't think he likes people making suggestions!

Congrats PW, you're the first and only one to figure it out as Obsessive CHAIR Disorder!

Of course you win the Booby Prize: You get to pluck-out any twelve chairs of your liking, starting at the very bottom of the chit pile! hehehehhehe
