Now, checking out the 49 threads on here that I have missed since yesterday.

No work on weekends here, just a Charity Ball to goto tomorrow night and some heavy social drankin'.

What color polish FS? I love red but being a redhead I have to be sure the undertone hue doesn't clash.
Gypsy, She likes blood red, deep pulsing bright blood red.

This is kinda like the most poisonous critters in nature have the brightest colors to warn would be predators.

I'm happy this conversation doesn't appeal to Sir Jack Moroney. Uh, what am I doing here???

Gypsy, That's the last thing I'd have thought of you.

Guy, any questions you have about painting let me know. Also, I was a Sherwin-Williams Sales Rep for 5 years before I started my own business, so what costs you $29-30 a gallon costs me $12-15.

And that goes for EVERYONE here. DO NOT buy paint without telling me. I have accounts at S-W, ICI-Dulux (Glidden), Benjamin Moore, etc.

Wherever you are in the US (Sorry NDD, etc...) my accounts are available to you.

I hate seeing someone buy "$30" paint when I get it for half that.

Hi Gypsy! I've standardized on Double-Tap Red. It makes in-field repairs much easier. See pic #1 below

Pics 2-3 are selected jewelry for the evening. Probably too summer-y for November, but it's one of my fave chokers. Pic 3 are toe-rings.

Sir Jack, if I could get an addy out of you, you would have some seriously good incoming from me re: your shower siutation! I promise promise promise you would like it and in the statistically impropable chance that you didn't, you would get serious good bonus points from Mrs. Moroney!


Bill Harsey I do not eat lizards !!! OK, I am walking out the door right now to appease those yelling from downstairs. Mr. Harsey, you can step away from the keyboard and breathe easy for a couple hours.


Random data: I have just blown out 1 car speaker and 1 computer speaker within a 2-month time-frame.

PS: Gypsy, I'll have to think about fingernail polish shades for Redheads.

Hmmm...

I just dyed my hair black, and yes my boyfriend had a sh*t fit, to which I merely threatened to cut it all off However, I found the Double-Tap Red still goes well with black hair.

OK, l8r,

FS, excellent true red color choice! :Sigh: I love the look of chokers but detest anything wrapped too closely around my neck, actually makes me feel claustrophobic. The toe rings are fun...I have a few but usually keep the same one on. Perhaps it's time for a little variety.

OMG! LOL
That's it... I am getting off this computer and gonna go fix a bourbon drink and watch the Hawaii football game on ESPN. Good god... There is enough ammo in that statement to get me kicked off this site.
Your're the best FS. I am beginning to think you do it on purpose.

Excellent, thank you! I tend to stick to reds with a blue-ish undertone. Here's a pic.

Black hair! I've always wanted dark hair but don't think it would go well with my skin tone/eyes.

Changed the picture, this was two weekends ago with two of my nieces, they are too adorable. Just ignore my red eye...they are really blue. LOL

Hi Gypsy, your gorgeous red hair seems to indicate warm-undertone'd accents more than cool tones. Warm tones = those based in orange, orange/reds, yellow, yellow/reds, red-browns, golds, brass, deeper shades of pewter, etc.
Cool tones = blues, silvers, greys

The only way to tell for sure is to go to one of those color-wheel places where the place swaths of fabric next to your skin / face and see what pales you out vs makes you look more alive. They are really fun! Go with a girlfriend!

Saca, get a grip! There was nothing impure about that paragraph whatsoever! Sir Jack already spoke of his exfoliating needs following his recuperation in the topic appropriately labeled "Showers". I have an extra of exactly the right product that is excellent and not froo-froo at all! Moreover, I'm sure that Sir Jack is secure enough in his masculinity to try it so there!

Thanks FS! I do wear clothing in more warm tones including browns, and I especially favor the green tones...including olive drab. Believe it or not it is smashing! I will take your suggestion and let you know what they tell me.
