MOAB, well I sure do like bacon!

otto, that's a very nice still.

jewels,
that Slinky reminds me of a gold plated Slinky I have on my desk. It's mounted in a fancy walnut base to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the invention; our patent attorney's (who are an old school patent firm in business since 1853) gave it to me since they obtained that patent for the inventor, Richard James and his wife, Betty who named it...

Since its founding in 1853, the firm has obtained patents for many famous inventors. Included among them are Sharps in 1873 for his breech-loading rifle, Graf Zeppellin in 1899 for his blimp, and Woodland in 1952 for his product identification system (now widely known as the "bar code"). One of the firm's best known trademarks is SLINKY® which is the name given to the famous toy in 1946 by Betty M. James, wife of its Philadelphia inventor. More recently the firm also honored BadNick of TFP with a gold plated Slinky to honor his own renowned achievements in the world of Tilted Nonsense.

gg,
I've probably been on that curley ladder more than my kids!
