When I was still living in New York, mid Hudson Valley area, I worked with my late brother who was a gypsy wondering pickin antique dealer.[8D] Anyway, there was a guy in the area who preyed on the New York City folks with his 'one -of - a- kind' antique furniture pieces. He would take a mediocre chest of drawers, cut it in half vertically with a nice swirl cut, and produce 2 'genuine' dry sinks[:eek:] We used to call them "Hartman Originals" Dealers stayed away from him, an now I wonder if they might have been fearful of getting caught up in a like situation as the folks in NH.? I guess they couldn't appeal the verdict due it being a jury trial?

Norm, You must lay and wait for stuff like this. I saw your generous offer for the Cobalt Skull bottle last night too.

Nah, I'm just saying how much I appreciate the good senator![;)] I'm still trying to figure out how she became a 'New Yorker', as one born and raised in NY, I look at her and Willie as a couple of predatory carpet baggers![:'(] But I wouldn't want my bias to show![8D]

Yep, and that's why my other web name is 'Exilednyr'. Tom Wolf said it best, "You Can't Go Home Again". Willie & Hillary, *#@*$$#!!!! OK Ok I'll stop!! This isn't the place for this discussion, I'm sorry[&o].
