    This got the gears moving in my one brain cell. I'm remembering something about the High Arm Philadelphia and a fight with Singer, I've been thinking about it all morning and can't remember anything more. Time to go searching.

    Edit-I can't find whatever it was I read before but what I did find it was just another story of using Singers name.

    I must have missed something with the naked people. I think I remember some sort of run or parade up around the Green Lake neighborhood. I don't blame her. Traffic is terrible around Seattle and most people look far better with their clothes on.

    Forget the naked people. I only have eyes for sweet old sewing machines.

    Rodney, I see far too many cool machines up your way! Sometime I may have to make a machine run up into Washington to help you clear the area! That's cool and I never see things like that down here...not at those prices anyway. My local hospice just got a Pfaff 130 in a huge Pfaff cabinet. (I noticed the cabinet from the side inside the truck they were unloading) I checked the next day and they priced it out at 300.00 and that's without any cleaning or repair done. Ugh. They check eBay for pricing. That thing will be there for months.
