My mother had one of those translucent face-in-the-bottom teacups. She was really proud of it. I don't know what ever happened to it.
I never really got into collecting china. Although, my mother gave me a large set of Noritaki ("Tree-By-The-Lake" design) that I had for years. My other half though, collected china sets until I reasoned with him that we simply didn't have need nor room for more sets of china! We both had to start collecting smaller and smaller things. But then we both got hooked by miniature houses.
I converted an antique glass front bookcase into a four-floor townhouse mansion. We both worked on detailing it complete with exterior garden, wired working electric lights, crystal chandeliers, real minature silk rugs, walnut crown moulding, walnut flooring, a working teeny, tiny TV, and a flying saucer crashed into the junk filled attic. 
But it was when I was considering paying nearly $1000 for a miniature grand piano that I realized that it was an addiction that needed to stop. (cocaine would have been cheaper) 
All that and the china, and the N-scale train sets, and the plethora of 19th century lithographs, and the over abundance of antique furniture went to auction after he died and I entered the ranks of unemployed over-50 software engineers. But that was before I realized that DAZ would suck as much or more money out of me and I would have nothing physical to show for it! 
But DAZ stuff does have the advantage that it doesn't take up much space. 
That was my first thought, "Hey, Aiko 3 is back!"
Take a hot shower and make shaving the last thing before rinsing off.
I actually shipped one of those once, made of wood. I threaded it through-and through with those big fluffy pipe cleaners that you find in art supply stores.
It arrived undamaged, but the customer gritched and gritched about how time consuming it was to remove the cleaners.
I resolved that if I ever sold her another, I'd fill it with expanding foam.
There may be easier and cheaper solutions, however Paleo-bond seems to work pretty well on minerals, and doesn't get that white foggy coating that cheap superglue has, and seems to last. I've had a bottle and a tube stored in my fridge probably for a decade, still using the original purchase. You can get it in different viscosities, so thin like superglue or thick if there's a slight gap in what you are gluing and the pieces don't fit together perfectly.

Goes to show if you wear the same clothes for a while they will become fashionable again :)
Fire in the suburbs east of us around the bay there is a slight scent of smoke when the north wind drops momentarily. Is very hot ;0

My light alarm just went on. Light alarms go on not off. Actually it is just a light on a timer. It turns on at 6 am so I can know to wake up by 6:30 am in theory. I was already awake but not up.
I want to ask how to install Bryce instead of complaining about someone telling me to mind my own business. Of course they had to get into my business in order to know if I got into their business or not.
edit Also I was not told it was a secret or anything. I was not told not to tell.
edit2: it was about instant coffee and I did not care either way.
edit3: hmmm probably should look where I got Bryce to find the download. Oh it is Daz3d.com I think.
Open up a second instance of Studio.
I often opperate with two and even three instances at the same time; 1 rendering on one card; another I might have spot/test/check rendering on still another card, and even be doing stuff on a third instance.
No idea, but Cricket is slow and dull.
full test matches can be for the non-afficionado but have you ever watched 20-20?
Would have served her right.
Actually that foam idea came to me for a moment when I was trying to think of a good way to ship it. Then I shuddered at the thought of removing it. 
But the fluffy pipe cleaners idea is wonderful. 
Thanks for the idea of that glue. I'll look for it.
I wish I had some scrap pieces of jade laying around to experiment with. I used to, I kept it with my scrap gold and diamonds. 
So I can do an iray render while playing with a second instance of studio? Is that why I can open multiple instances of studio?
20 Foxtrots this morning + wind chill 11mph = 10 Foxtrots

...MLB has actually been making moves to "speed up" the game here like eliminating intentional walks and giving pitchers less time to warm up when there is a pitching change because of the complaints. This nation is just one lot of impatient people I guess. They'd probably liken cricket to watching paint dry (which really makes me wonder about the fascination with golf which is much slower than baseball or watching cars go around in circles for several hours)
...35° here heading upwards to the low 40s with the threat of freezing rain in the city finally over. Big relief as I'm heading out to get together with a friend in about an hour.
Looks like back to a more "normal" winter here temp wise but another uncharacteristic dry spell on the way after tomorrow's and Friday's deluge and almost spring like temps in the 50s.
My TV will not turn on just by me thinking about it turning on. Nor will my FireTV stick start a netflix movie with thought power. My remotes are on my dresser which means I got to get off the bed to watch Netflix. I also am afraid dinner is soon but not Daz soon so I am afraid that as soon as I get the effort of getting the remotes, turning on the TV and the FireTV stick and finding a movie it will be time to eat. I would ask Charley the goldfish to get the remotes but he is more lazy than me. yep he just wants to play in the aquarium plants with Leo the goldfish.
I've seen trailers, it looks like a blast! Now on my must-see list.
...when I get a new set of decent headhones I'll be able to watch films when they get to the Net again.
I wish I could give you one but it probably better if you get one from a store local to you than for me to send a used headphone via mail.
