Default [IBC] Thank you......

Oh good lord Jim, now you've gone and done it. Two of oldehippies favorite subjects in
one paragraph and you've got him hooked on bonsai forever! ;-P

Glad to see you've finally made it over here Bill! Time to start on some RL trees instead
of the virtual ones we've been playing with for so long.

Just wanted to add to the book discussion and let you know that your library can be a good
source of book material. I can access my entire library system via the web and order them
up that way. It makes it nice to be able to preview books prior to buying them.

Take plants and book home and follow the instructions in the book
and BUILD YOUR OWN BONSAI. That is a heckuva lot more satisfying
than going out and buying someone else's bonsai, then just
watering it. That's kinda like reading about sex. (Or beer. ;-) "

I like the mental picture...read about sex.....well, Kama Sutra does come to
mind. lol

To make it clear, I have no intention to buy another's work. Sort of like
wanting a custom car or motorcycle then buying one somebody else made. I
want to get my hands into it and create my own living art.

Okay, since I am disabled I don't get out and around all that much. We just
had a 'Super' Wal-Mart addition built in town but I never did too much
shopping there. Now I have a reason to, and I know getting out and doing
some walking is good for me. Thanks for the tip. And Friday the temps are
expected to be in low 50s so guess where I'm going?

But maybe just for the books first, I'll see when I get there. ;-P

Bill
