Welcome to the board one and all!
Terpin: no ma'am, hiding shopping bags and/or cutting off tags and saying "this ol thing?" does not constitute lying! I'm thinking those are just basic marriage survival techniques!
Blue: Holy Smokes that's a painting? The image is so amazing I thought it was a photo. You do awesome work: got any more pictures to share?.....who is the most famous thoroughbred you've ever painted?
as for falling: well yeah - sometimes the falling part is fun too.....like when you can't get unclipped and your hands are still on the flats and you just kinda tip over like a tree! LOL (of course not that I would Ever know anything about that
)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
