  Hi, gang.

  I have Carol's permission to share this anecdote with you.


    Yesterday I got a call from a colleague of Ken's in the British Virgin Islands who had his client, unknown to me, on the line also.  He was calling on a Skype phone and they are notoriously BAD.  Ken has one.  He asked me what I was doing when he called.  I told him planting Amaryllis bulbs.  He asked where I got them.  I told him I ordered them on-line.  He said I can't believe you actually paid for them and that they even sell them.  Now I was confused.  He asked how many I got and how much they cost.  I told him I ordered nearly $300.00 worth and I was keeping 20 and giving the others away as Christmas presents.  He asked what I was going to do with them and I told him I was going to use them as models in my new series of paintings.  By then he was about choking.  I was even more confused. 

    Well, when he hung up he called Ken in Rio and told him how much he enjoyed talking to me and how entertaining I was and that is certainly some interesting art I was doing. Poor Ken had to call to find out what was going on.  Bill didn't hear Amaryllis Bulbs, he heard Armadillo Balls.
