It's difficult to draw blood from me because I have shock veins. My irons are silicated, my woods have Sikhotes embedded in them, and I have no handicap. Weathering makes me look more distinguished. My furniture is finished with desert varnish. My opinions are completely unequilibrated. When I trade, everyone comes out ahead. Now I smell a fine Mandheling with my name on it. :) Best regards and happy huntings, MikeG -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Gilmer - Galactic Stone & Ironworks Meteorites Website - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone News Feed - http://www.galactic-stone.com/rss/126516 Twitter - http://twitter.com/galacticstone Meteorite Top List - http://meteorite.gotop100.com EOM - http://www.encyclopedia-of-meteorites.com/collection.aspx?id=1564 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- On 1/27/11, Matthias B?rmann <majbaermann at web.de> wrote: > > When I meet meteorites and say "hello", I always hear them whispering: "Hi, > Dad!" > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alexander Seidel" <gsac at gmx.net> > To: "Martin Altmann" <altmann at meteorite-martin.de>; > <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> > Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2011 4:05 PM > Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] The Most Interesting Meteorite Man in the > World > > >> >>> "My blood group is W0". >>> "I set up a macroscope for fat sections." >> >> >> I?m oriented!
