<Lory> nixon
<Vyx> Oh, good! I have supplies for this!
<Vyx> I never did use any of the wire I bought from you before...
<Janet> Then you have wire!!
<Janet> And these are easy. Susan asked me to teach how to make those earrings
<Janet> the ones at the top
<Vyx> Yes, and square wire to twist.
<Lory> oh vyx now youve done it
<RubberRabb> yippee, my lag is gone> page loaded instantly
<Lory> you can never admit to that, lol
<Janet> and this was on my list to teach, these are easy and make great Christmas tree ornaments too.
<RubberRabb> I need to know how to do this, too
<Janet> This is sooooooooo easy
<Janet> Really.
<Janet> Lea, I'm not lyin
<deb> uh huh
<RubberRabb> I have a beautiful agate I've had for years I want to 'cage.'
<Janet> this is E Z
deb says that's what she alwasy says
<carol> i just got Christmas ornaments at Jo-ann's today for 14 cents just to use the tops for crowns!
<Janet> So think everybody's here who is going to be here?
<Janet> LOL Carol
<Janet> The best part with using wire ones is that you can just bend in a hook
<RubberRabb> maybe--everyone else headed to bed (work day tomorrow)
<Janet> Probably. This won't be a long one this is easy.
<RubberRabb> you keep saying that
<Janet> But should I give away a prize?
<RubberRabb> to us> the wire impaired
<RubberRabb> yes, I could use a prize
<Vyx> Sure
<RubberRabb> LOL
<Janet> I felt so stupid this morning, didn't give away any of my social prizes.
<Janet> Okay!
<cak> You're prize enough, my dear
<deb> lol
RubberRabbit gags
deb looks at cak sideways
<Janet> The thing I'm most excited about selling is the plier racks
<Janet> because I'm always losing my pliers on my desk
RubberRabbit reaches for one of those polly bags
<RubberRabb> I need one of those
<deb> wow a plier rack?
<deb> I need that
<RubberRabb> my pliers are always getting tangled up
<deb> Carey keeps running off with mine
<RubberRabb> and it's a pain untangling them
<Janet> you can see 'em at http://www.weebewire.com/
<Vyx> I don't think it comes with a lock and chain, Deb. :)
<Janet> i can't remember the page name, but click the link at the top that says kits and tools

<deb> lol
<Janet> I SAY I'M CHEAP N EASY
<RubberRabb> I've heard about your bead shopping..
<cak> (but effective)
<RubberRabb> you can't say cheap
deb thinks cak is a suck up
<RubberRabb> you're not a cheap date
<Janet> OKAY. PRIZE QUESTION, FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER GETS IT...
sparkle waits
<Kaye> yes prize good
sparkle has stuff she NEEDS from janet to ship with this prize
<sparkle> ROFL
<Janet> IF YOU WANT YOUR COPPER WIRE TO TARNISH FAST, WHAT IS THE BEST THING TO DO TO IT?
<Kriztina> pee on it
<Vyx> Pee on it
<RubberRabb> dip in vinegar
<sparkle> dunk it in the toilet
<deb> wet it
<cak> vinegar annd salt
<Janet> LOL! KRIZ WAS FIRST!
<purplrose> toilet bowl cleaner
<Vyx> wtg Kriz!
<RubberRabb> LOL
<cak> yay Kriz!
<deb> eeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
<Kriztina> ty ty
<Janet> ALL OF THE ABOVE WILL WORK
<cak> (and you got to say pee too)
<deb> between that and the butt wipe cards we are all fixed up!
<Vyx> I think vinegar and salt cleans copper.
<Janet> BUT URINE IS CHEAP AND EASY TO OBTAIN :)
<RubberRabb> I will not wear ANY of Kriz's copper jewelry
<cak> oops
<Kriztina> i like shiny copper jewelry so no peeing on it here
<Janet> LOL
<RubberRabb> LOL
<Lory> yukk, and coming from me...thats bad
<deb> heh
<Kaye> how do you find that out
<Janet> AFTER IT TARNISHES, WASH IT OFF IF YOU'VE GOT A QUEASY STOMACH
<Janet> KAYE, INTERESTING ANSWER TO THAT...
<Lory> ok, lets just say wash it no matter what
<Janet> I'M A FORMER NEWSPAPER EDITOR...
<cak> (please wash it off even it you don't have a queasy stomach)
<deb> lol
<RubberRabb> Janet> is that plier rack with the drawer mis-priced?? looks too expensive for only $9
<Janet> AND ONE OF THE COMMUNITIES HERE HAD PUT A COPPER ROOF ON A FIRE STATION AND IT WAS TARNISHING UNEVENLY
<Kaye> i am thinking wash it off is good
<RubberRabb> I don't want to hear this
<Janet> RR, IT WAS A FLUKE BUY, IT COSTS ME THE SAME AS THE 4-PLIER ONE
<RubberRabb> na na na na na na na
<Janet> SO THEY CALLED THE CONTRACTOR AND I WAS DOING A STORY ON THIS...
<RubberRabb> I want one
<RubberRabb> na na nana nanannanananananana (fingers in ears)
<Lory> did you go undercover to get the dirt
deb doesn't see a drawer
<Janet> AND THE CONTRACTOR TOLD THEM THEY WOULD COME BACK OUT FOR ONLY A BUNCHA THOUSAND DOLLARS, OR THEY COULD JUST GET THE FIRE GUYS TO GO OUT IN THE NIGHT AND, WELL, YOU KNOW
<Kriztina> pee on it say it
<deb> lol
<Janet> AND THEY HAD TO VOTE ON THIS AT THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING
<cak> lol!
<Vyx> ROTF!
<Janet> AND THE CITY COUNCIL VOTED TO PISS IT OFF
<RubberRabb> on the kits and tools page third thing of tools
<cak> lol! what a headline!
<RubberRabb> holders
<Janet> IT WAS SOOOOOOOOO TEMPTING
<Vyx> rotflmaoapmp
<Lory> aim for the copper vyx
<Vyx> lol
<Janet> CITY COUNCIL DOES NOT PISS OFF THOUSANDS OF TAX DOLLARS
<Janet> SIGH. I THINK WE ENDED UP WITH A VERY BORING HEADLINE
<Janet> BUT ANYWAY, THAT'S HOW I KNOW HOW TO TARNISH COPPER
<Janet> SO!
<Janet> THAT PAIR OF EARRINGS. SUSAN ASKED HOW TO MAKE THEM LAST NIGHT AND THEY REALLY ARE EASY
<Janet> YOU CAN SEE THE STEP BY STEP
<Janet> YOU JUST CUT A WIRE, FOR AN AVERAGE SIZED EARRING STONE OR PIECE OF GLASS (LIKE AN INCH OR SO LONG) CUT ABOUT 12" OF WIRE
<Janet> LIKE 20 GAUGE OR SO
<Janet> IF YOU WANT IT TWISTED LOOKING, USE SQUARE WIRE
<Janet> MARK THE MIDDLE OF THE WIRE TEMPORARILY
<Janet> IN THE PAGE YOU CAN BARELY SEE, I HAD TWISTED A SCRAP PIECE OF GREEN WIRE AROUND WHERE THE MIDDLE WAS
<Janet> THEN JUST COIL THE WIRE UP FROM BOTH ENDS TO THE MIDDLE
<Janet> SEE THAT?
<RubberRabb> oh, I was wondering..
<RubberRabb> yes
<Janet> http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/ IS THE CLASS PAGE
<RubberRabb> but I have trouble getting a nice flat coil
<RubberRabb> that is even
<Janet> REMOVE WHATEVER YOU USED TO MARK THE MIDDLE
<Janet> (DON'T EVEN WORRY ABOUT IT BEING FLAT OR EVEN)
<RubberRabb> my coils look like snakes that have stomach cramp
<Janet> ALTHOUGH PRACTICE MAKES BETTER COILS. REALLY. THEY GET BETTER AS YOU MAKE MORE OF 'EM
<LeaAFK> are you doing thos blue earrings???
<LeaAFK> ghe glass ones?
<Janet> I CAN, LEA, BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S THE GREEN CAGED ONES
<LeaAFK> ok
<LeaAFK> sorry
<Janet> LOOK HERE> http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/
<LeaAFK> ok
<Janet> AFTER YOU COIL THE WIRE UP TO THE MIDDLE FROM BOTH ENDS?
<Janet> FINGER BEND IT A BIT MORE SO ONE COIL IS RESTING ON TOP OF THE OTHER ONE
<Janet> WITH ME SO FAR?
<Kaye> yes
<cak> so far, so good
<Janet> IWTH YOUR PLIERS GRAB THE VERY MIDDLE OF THE COIL AND BEND UP THE MIDDLE LOOP, THAT'S NOW YOUR HANGING LOOP
<RubberRabb> finger bend it? you mean just twist it
<RubberRabb> so one coil on top of the other ?
<Janet> YEP, JUST TWIST IT A BIT MORE SO THE COILS ARE ON TOP OF EACH OTHER
RubberRabbit (doesn't always understand this jewelry jargon)
<Janet> BUT TO GET THAT MIDDLE BIT OUT, YOU'LL NEED YOUR PLIERS
<Janet> AND GRAB AHOLD OF THAT FIRST LOOP
<RubberRabb> is that like step three?
<Janet> LIKE STICK THE TIP OF ONE OF THE PLIER JAWS INTO THE MIDDLE HOLE AND THEN SORT OF PRY IT UP
<Janet> THE BENDING TO MAKE THEM STACKED IS, RR
<RubberRabb> oh, ok
<Janet> SO NOW YOU HAVE YOUR LOOP STICKING UP VERTICALLY ABOVE YOUR STACK OF COILS
<RubberRabb> oh, I see--we're doing the top half of the 'finished' picture
<RubberRabb> ok
<RubberRabb> I'm with you now
<Janet> NOW USE YOUR FINGERS TO STRETCH THE TOP COIL OUT
<RubberRabb> (pretty wire by the way)
<Janet> YOU CAN GET IT STRETCHED PRETTY EVENLY BY USING LIKE A BUTTER KNIFE OR SOMETHING THAT WON'T MAR THE WIRE AND JUST RUNNING IT IN BETWEEN THE WIRES
<Janet> RR, I SHOULD BE ASHAMED, THIS IS THE 20 CENT A FOOT SQUARE BRASS WIRE
<Janet> AND I USED ABOUT 20 CENTS' WORTH
<Janet> IT WILL LOOK VERY COOL ON MY CHRISTMAS TREE
<RubberRabb> would a bone folder work to slide between without marring it?
<Janet> THAT WOULD WORK GREAT!!
<RubberRabb> oh, is that square wire?
<Janet> IT IS SQUARE BECAUSE I WANTED IT TWISTY
RubberRabbit has never seen anything but round wire
RubberRabbit lives in a burrow
<Vyx> great stuff, I love the square wire
<Janet> THEN IF YOU WANT A STONE IN THE MIDDLE, STICK THE STONE UP INTO THAT TOP BIT, AND THEN USE YOUR FINGERS TO ARRANGE THE WIRE IN THE MIDDLE AROUND THE STONE AND STRETCH OUT THE BOTTOM COIL
<Janet> AND THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT.
<Janet> IS VERY EASY TO DO. NOT AS EASY TO GET IT EVEN
<Janet> BUT YOU CAN KEEP SMOOSHING AND STRETCHING UNTIL YOU LIKE HOW IT LOOKS
<RubberRabb> well wouldn't it be easier if you used a stone that isn't even?
<Janet> IF YOU WANTED IT TOTALLY SYMMETRICAL, YOU'D BUY IT IN THE STORE, YA KNOW?
<RubberRabb> then it wouldn't be even and neither is the stone so..
<Janet> YES, ALSO THIS LOOKS COOL WITH NOTHING IN IT, OR SAY WITH THREE OR FIVE OR SO LITTLE GEMBALL BEADS, TOO
<Janet> OR!
<RubberRabb> buys stones that are always uneven
<LeaAFK> wait a minute...are you saying those step by step directions on that web page will make the cage for those green earrngs?
<Janet> YOU CAN SRING A BEAD ON A WIRE AND RUN IT INSIDE THE CAGE
<Janet> YES, LEA
<Janet> IT'S THAT EASY
<Janet> I DIDN'T LIE TO YA THIS TIME
<LeaAFK> can i comne live with you, Mommy?
<Janet> CAN YOU COOK?
<LeaAFK> and you show me??
<brenda> what is url
<LeaAFK> yes, and I can clean
<Janet> I WILL SHOW YOU. http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/
<brenda> ty
<LeaAFK> and that's not all.....your husband is gonna fall straight in love with me!
<cak> (I think you need to bring *lots* of tools and supplies to Grapevine)
<RubberRabb> I think I could even show you this one, Lea
<Janet> YOU JUST COIL BOTH ENDS OF THE WIRE TO THE MIDDLE, STACK THE COILS ON TOP OF EACH OTHER, THEN STRETCH THEM OUT TO MAKE THE CAGE
<Janet> IT AUTOMAGICALLY DOES IT
<RubberRabb> this one looks easier than aything
<RubberRabb> anything else you've done
<RubberRabb> I think I could do this one
<cak> I'd love to try putting several small beads in there--fab idea
<Janet> I THINK THE OPEN ENDED CAGE EARRINGS IS THE EASIEST ONE
<Kaye> yes cross was too hard for me
<Janet> I DO LOVE THE ROUND BEADS, LIKE THREE OF 'EM, INSIDE
<Janet> LOOK ON THE JEWELRY PAGE
<RubberRabb> I want to do my fave agate stone I've had since I was ten
<Janet> THERE'S EARRINGS ON THERE THAT HAVE A RECTANGLE LAPIS INSIDE THEM
<Vyx> hmm, I gotta practice this with cheap craft wire.
<Janet> LOOK AT CHOICE E ON THE SECOND GROUP OF EARRINGS ON THE JEWELRY PAGE
<Janet> IT HAS LAPIS TUBES INSIDE A SWIRL OF WIRE.
<Janet> SEE THOSE?
<Janet> (THESE ARE THE EASIEST ONES)
<Kaye> yes love them
<Janet> OKAY!
<Kriztina> hey janet on the hearts and crosses to buy page, how much for that quarter pictured there?
<Janet> CUT A PIECE OF WIRE, MAKE THIS PRETTY THICK WIRE, LIKE 18 GAUGE WIRE
<Janet> KRIZ, I THINK $20 FOR THE QUARTER
<RubberRabb> that will cost you two bits Kriz
<Janet> LOL
<Kriztina> ok thanks > ) i couldnt resist
<Janet> LOL
<Janet> ANYWAY, CUT A PIECE OF LIKE 18 GAUGE WIRE CUT IT 5" LONG
<Janet> GET YOUR PLIERS
<RubberRabb> I guess you have made a sale there, janet--she says she can't resist
<Janet> STICK ONE END OF THE WIRE DOWN INSIDE YOUR PLIERS JAWS
<Janet> LOL
<Janet> AND HOLD ONTO THAT WIRE
<Janet> CLAMP THE PLIER JAWS ON IT SO IT WON'T ESCAPE
<brenda> where are the tubes?
<Janet> AND THE WIRE IS STUCK DOWN AS FAR AS IT WILL GO INTO THE PLIERS
<Janet> SECOND GROUP OF EARRINGS ON THE JEWELRY PAGE, BRENDA
<LeaAFK> how does that square wire get all twisty anyway?
<Janet> YOU TWIST IT, LEA
<brenda> ok ty
<RubberRabb> could you use a rubberband to hold the pliers closed so the wire wont' escape?
<LeaAFK> you twist t yerself......>thinking about this>
<Janet> NOW YOU GOT THE WIRE CAUGHT IN YOUR PLIERS, STUCK ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE JAWS
<cak> (think pin vise Lea)
<Janet> HOLD THE PLIERS SHUT AND THE WIRE TRAPPED WITH YOUR "OFF" HAND (FOR ME IT IS THE LEFT)
<Janet> AND WITH YOUR DOMINANT HAND BEND THE WIRE AROUND THE PLIER JAWS
<RubberRabb> my off hand doesn't grip so well..
<LeaAFK> ok, could you just bite it to hold it?
<RubberRabb> that's why I was asking about a rubberband
<Janet> YEAH, THEN RUBBER BAND THE PLIER HANDLES TIGHT
<Janet> HI, HOWIE!
<RubberRabb> I like my teeth too much, lea
<Howie> hello
<LeaAFK> is this thing still on?
<RubberRabb> and then twist the wire around the pliers?
<LeaAFK> oh, ok
<Janet> found it!
<Janet> SORRY
<RubberRabb> I think Janet has been eaten by a bear
<Janet> WAS LOOKING FOR AN OLD CLASS PAGE
<Janet> LOOK HERE.
<Janet> http://www.weebedazzled.com/class/earrings/spiralcage/
<Janet> THAT SHOWS HOW THE WIRE GOES AROUND THE PLIERS
<Janet> HOWDY, HOWIE!
<Lory> night everybody, im tired
<Vyx> wow that's dang easy
<Janet> TAKE CARE, LORY
<Howie> greetings long time no see
<MomCat> How about a pair of hemostats for those who can't grip with their off hand?
<Vyx> I gotta try that one... this coil thing ain't going so great
<Janet> YEP, THEN YOU OOCH OUT THE PLIERS AND THE EARRING IS MADE!
<LeaAFK> She is a seasoned professional
<Vyx> how about locking plyers?
<LeaAFK> ooch
<Vyx> I'd be worried about marring the wire tho
<LeaAFK> technical term?
<Janet> STICK THE RECTANGLE STONE ON THE HANGING DOWN WIRE AND YOU ARE FINISHED!
<LeaAFK> how does it stay on the hanging down wire?
<Janet> YES. OOCH IS A TECHNICAL TERM<G>
<RubberRabb> yeah, I was going to ask that too lea
<LeaAFK> it looks like it would slide right off, Momy
<Janet> WELL, I PUT A GLOB OF E6000 GLUE ON THE HANGY DOWN WIRE AND THEN SHOVE THE BEAD UP ON IT
<RubberRabb> how does it stay there
<Vyx> ah ha!
<LeaAFK> really?
<RubberRabb> ah--one of those professional tricks again
<Janet> STICK AN EARWIRE ON THE TOP
<LeaAFK> that sems like cheating
<Janet> DONE
<RubberRabb> peeing on copper and globbing on glue
<Janet> IT IS CHEATING
<Janet> BUT IT WORKS <G>
<Legs> ok
<Vyx> but a small little loop would work too?
<Legs> long as I know
<Legs> now is your husband gonna care if I move in with you>
<RubberRabb> hmm--could you do this bendy trick with a bead on a headpin? for a tiny embellishment?
<Kaye> you really need to try the ultimate glue
<Janet> YOU BETCHA!
<RubberRabb> what is the ultimate glue
<Legs> don't ask, Rabbit'
<Legs> you don't wanna know
<Kaye> it is a water based super glue
<Janet> ALSO ON THE FIRST CAGE WE MADE, YOU CAN HOOK A BEAD ON A HEADPIN ON THE BOTTOM, THAT LOOKS WAY COOL TOO
<Janet> OR YOU CAN MAKE SEVERAL CAGES AND HOOK 'EM TOGETHER
<Kaye> use in place of e6000
<Janet> IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, YOU CAN DO IT
<RubberRabb> waterbased superglue?
<Legs> <sigh>
<Janet> I DID LEARN, THOUGH, THAT SUPER GLUE WON'T WORK
<Janet> BECAUSE WHEN I GET SWEATY, SUPER GLUE QUITS
<RubberRabb> I can dream it but I won't do it..
<Janet> LOL
<RubberRabb> superglue doesn't hold everything
<Legs> cos its illegal in OK
<RubberRabb> LOL
<Legs> and probably TX too
<Howie> has any one heard of universal glue I hear that it is wonderful for collage and assemblage I was wondering where to get some
<Kaye> the ultimate glue works just like the e6000
<RubberRabb> more likely
<Legs> is that square wire really speendy?
<Legs> spendy, even
<RubberRabb> I've heard that Doris Arndt uses acrylic gel medium for her assemblage projects, Howie
<Vyx> Nope, I bought some and I'm notoriously cheap
<Janet> I THINK THAT WAS ALL I HAD FOR TONIGHT. TOMORROW HMMM MAYBE A NICE PENDANT DESIGN (AN EASY ONE) FOR TOMORROW.
<Janet> IS CHEAP, LEA
<RubberRabb> holds just about everything in place
<Legs> like how cheap?
<Janet> GO TO www.weebewire.com AND LOOK
<Legs> ok, ok
<RubberRabb> I think I'd like a bit of that square wire, too--
<Janet> OKAY, LIKE THE 18 GAUGE STERLING SILVER IN SQUARE?
<RubberRabb> can we all come live with you for a while Janet
<Vyx> lol
<RubberRabb> and you will do in person classes?
<Janet> IS 2.50 A FOOT
<Janet> AND IT TAKES ABOUT A FOOT TO MAKE A PAIR OF EARRINGS
<RubberRabb> (lea and I could help with the housework> I make a nice dish of pasta)
<Kaye> janet i have not done any beading but want to start what wire should i get
<Janet> THIS STUFF IS EASY!! JUST TRY IT!
sparkle did wire today!
<Vyx> And practice first with some brass wire before using the silver for your earrings
<RubberRabb> yer welcome, Howie
<sparkle> I dredged up everything I'd ever heard janet say...and it was EASY
<Janet> KAYE, I THINK I'D GET LIKE 2-3 FEET OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAUGES AND TYPES
<Janet> YOU WIRED TODAY??? WOO HOO!!!
<Kaye> what gauges for what things
<RubberRabb> I'd say to be careful putting acrylic mediums on the edges of boxes and things you want to open and close, though--some of them get sticky-ish
<Janet> AND YOU DO IT NOW AND YOU GET EQUAL FOOTS OF PRACTICE WIRE FOR FREE
<RubberRabb> you don't want to collage a box and seal it shut by mistake
<RubberRabb> sorry
<Janet> LIKE EARRINGS, USUALLY 18-20 GAUGE, BECAUSE YOU WANT IT TOUGH ENOUGH TO FALL ASLEEP IN WITHOUT BENDING UP YOUR EARRING
<RubberRabb> Janet, meant to whisper and hit the wrong buttons
<Janet> LOL
<Janet> YOU WANT A NICE AIRY LOOKING PENDANT, THAT'S USUALLY 22-24 GAUGE
<Legs> Sparkle, did you put up more glass photos?
<Janet> THE BIGGER THE NUMBER ON THE GAUGE, THE LIGHTER THE WIRE
<Janet> AND THE CHEAPER
<RubberRabb> yeah, janet, do you have a sample pack for sale
<Vyx> Great class, Janet!
<RubberRabb> so that we can have a little bit of everything to try
<Janet> WIRE IS PRICED, NOT REALLY BY THE FOOT, BUT BY HOW MUCH IT WEIGHS
<kat> thanks janet
<Kaye> what gauge do you use with the clinkits
<Janet> SO AN OUNCE OF 24 GAUGE IS LOTS MORE FEET THAN AN OZ OF 18 GAUGE
<Janet> WITH THE CLINK ITS? THAT'S 24 GAUGE
<Janet> REALLY LIGHT!
<Janet> IT'S GOT THE CLINK IT FOR STABILITY
<RubberRabb> well that is the way all metals are priced
<Vyx> What about most of your other earrings?
<RubberRabb> by the weight (thus karats)
<Vyx> what gauges do you mostly use?
<Legs> so what kind of wire is practice wire? like if you ordered square wire, would the practice wire be square too?
<Janet> KAYE, LOOK ON THE CUSTOM JEWELRY PAGE AND TELL ME WHAT PIECES YOU WANT TO MAKE AND I'LLT ELL YA HOW MUCH WIRETO BUY AND WHAT KIND
<Kaye> i orders some and want to make pendants for christmas presents
<Janet> I USE 20 GAUGE AND 22 GAUGE THE MOST i THINK
<Kaye> you are so awesome
<Janet> ROUND AND SQUARE AND HALF ROUND. THE WRAPS LIKE THOSE WRAPS TO DO THE BUNDLE LAST NIGHT?
<Legs> Kaye is sucking up, I think
<Janet> THEY ARE EASIEST WITH HALF-ROUND WIRE, IT LAYS FLATTER AND STAYS IN PLACE EASIER
<Janet> LOL
<Kaye> big time
<Legs> I thought so
<Janet> LEA, SHE'S JUST SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW WHO DA WOMAN IS IN HERE.
<Vyx> wraps?
<Kaye> i like a amd f pendants
<Vyx> Were you doing bundles last night?
<RubberRabb> Janet, do you sell sample packs of wire
<Legs> don't say wraps..I am too hungry!
<DAWOMAN> I DO!
RubberRabbit hands lea a wrapped chocolate
<DAWOMAN> OH!
RubberRabbit hands Janet a wrapped diet chocolate
<DAWOMAN> I HAVE KITS FOR BOTH OF THOSE! ALREADY MEASURED OUT AND EVERYTHING!
<Legs> no, I already ATE alla dat choclit...now want real food. Like a burrito or three
