That is an absolutely wonderful collection and it's very tastefully displayed in your home office.

I understand the challenge of where to draw the line when discussing the collection with the odd passer through. My collectionis all in my home office too. It's amazing how I can both waste time getting into animated discussions of history and swordsmanship...and glaze over the uninterested. Sometimes it's a real challenge to know when to talk and when to not miss an opportunity to just shutup.

And thanks for the compliment Mike. A compliment from you on sword collecting is high praise indeed.

Unbelievable. What a great collection and great display style you have in that room. Between your update and Bill Swiger's update....my face just melted off.

Initially, I was flying without a net, but one or two close calls got me nervous. Now the ones high up have paracord keepers improvised to prevent any really nasty accidents. I can still slide them out, but they can't fall straight off the rack as I stomp up or down the stairs in a storm of lethal rain.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT
